2. Update to EGCS 1.1.2
(This may be optional.)

OPTIONAL
1. Install the Andy Piper Tools (http://www.xemacs.freeserve.co.uk/)

CYGWIN32 INSTALLATION
1. Download the Cygwin32 IPC Package by Ludovic LANGE
http://www.multione.capgemini.fr:80/tools/pack_ipc/current.tar.gz
2. Untar the package and follow the readme instructions.
2a. Apply the patch from src/win32/ipc.patch
3. I tested 1.03.
4. I used the \cygwin-b20\h-i568-cygwin32\i586-cygwin32\lib and
3. Apply the patch from the file.
4. I tested 1.03.
5. I used the \cygwin-b20\h-i568-cygwin32\i586-cygwin32\lib and
\cygwin-b20\h-i568-cygwin32\i586-cygwin32\include\sys instead of the
/usr/local/lib and usr/local/include/sys.
1. Download the current version of PostgreSQL.
2. Untar the package.
3. Copy the files from \pgsql\src\win32 according to the readme file.
3. Edit \pgsql\src\template\cygwin32 if needed (I had to adjust the YFLAGS
path).
4. ./configure
5. make
6. create the directory /usr/local/pgsql manually: the mkdir cannot create a
directory 2 levels deep in one step.
7. make install
8. cd /usr/lical/pgsql/doc
9. make install
10. Set the environmental data
11. Initdb --username=jkr (do not run this command as administrator)
12. Open a new Cygwin command prompt
13. Start "ipc-deamon&" (background proces)
14. Start "postmaster -i 2>&1 > /tmp/postgres.log &" (background proces)
15. Start "tail -f /tmp/postgres.log" to see the messages
16. cd /usr/src/pgsql/src/test/regress
17. make all runtest
All test should be run, allthought the latest snapshot I tested (18-4)
appears to have some problems with locking.

By default, PostgreSQL clients like psql communicate by default using
unix domain sockets, which don't work on NT. Start the postmaster with
-i, and when connecting to the database from a client, set the PGHOST
environment variable to 'localhost' or supply the hostname on the
command line.
NOTE:
Also, the cygnus-bindir has to be placed in the path before the
NT-directories, because the sort.exe has to be take for cygnus, not
NT-directories, because the sort.exe has to be taken for cygnus, not
NT.
