However, libpostgres.a isn't in $(DESTDIR)/$(bindir), it's in

Offhand that seems like it may just be a thinko in the original makefile coding. Has anyone tried to use PGXS on windows before?

I have, it works for me. I get for example:

dlltool --export-all  --output-def dblink-ldap.def dblink-ldap.o
dllwrap  -o libdblink-ldap.dll --dllname libdblink-ldap.dll  --def
dblink-ldap.def dblink-ldap.o -LD:/msys/1.0/local/pgsql/bin
-LD:/msys/1.0/local/pgsql/lib -L/f/krb5/lib/i386/mingw -lwldap32
-lpostgres dlltool --dllname libdblink-ldap.dll --def dblink-ldap.def --output-lib
libdblink-ldap.a

As you see, it adds both bin and lib. This is from a fresh cvs install
on my local msys - not installed from installer, and all building is
from msys.

That said, it still doesn't look right in the makefile :-)



Well, the whole point was to test against postgres from the installer - that case sure didn't work, as the output I posted showed.

I suggest I change HEAD and we test - if nothing breaks we can backport it.

cheers
