Srinath is in India I believe and not available currently. Does anybody have
any idea why meson
is not finding the paths I'm specifying with the -Dextra_lib_dirs and
-Dextra_include_dirs? See below.
Thanks, Mark

Hi Srinath,
Thanks for the tip.
I tried:
meson setup build --prefix=%prefix% --buildtype=release
-Dextra_lib_dirs=%openssl_directory%,%zlib_directory%,%icu4c_directory%
-Dextra_include_dirs=%openssl_directory%,%zlib_directory%,%icu4c_directory%
using both the -Dextra_lib_dirs and -Dextra_include_dirs and it's still not
finding openssl, icu, or zlib.
In the External libraries information toward the end of the output, it says:
External libraries
icu : NO
openssl : NO
zlib : NO
I removed the other libraries in the output for brevity.
I've checked my variables and they're correct and those libraries are there.
Am I missing an option to meson setup build?
Thanks, Mark

I'm trying to build Postgres 17.0 and have about learning meson as I go.
The build setup command I have so far is:
meson setup build --prefix=%prefix% --buildtype=release -Dssl=auto -Dzlib=auto
-Dicu=auto
but I believe that cmd expects ssl, zlib, and icu to be installed in default
locations.
How do I specify to meson that I want it to use the versions of those 3
software packages that I have built
e.g. the openssl I want it to use is located in
D:\Postgres-Builds\OpenSSL\OpenSSL-Install\OpenSSL-3.1.6-wx6
and similar locations for icu and zlib?
Thanks, Mark
Specify the lib's paths in "-Dextra_lib_dirs" during meson setup
e.g. meson setup build --prefix=%prefix% --buildtype=release
-Dextra_lib_dirs=D:\Postgres-Builds\OpenSSL\OpenSSL-Install\OpenSSL-3.1.6-wx6
