<Title>Installation on Win32</Title>
<Abstract>
<Para>
Build and installation instructions for <ProductName>Postgres</ProductName>
v6.4 client libraries on Win32.
</Para>
</Abstract>
<Sect1>
<Title>Building the libraries</Title>
<Para>
The makefiles included in <ProductName>Postgres</ProductName> are written
for <ProductName>Microsoft Visual C++</ProductName>, and will probably
not work with other systems. It should be possible to compile the libaries
manually in other cases.
</Para>
<Para>
To build the libraries, change directory into the <filename>src</filename>
directory, and type the command
<programlisting>
nmake /f win32.mak
</programlisting>
This assumes that you have <ProductName>Visual C++</ProductName> in your
path.
</Para>
<Para>
The following files will be built:
<ItemizedList Mark="bullet" Spacing="compact">
<ListItem>
<Para>
<filename>interfaces\libpq\Release\libpq.dll</filename>
- The dynamically linkable frontend library
</Para>
</ListItem>
<ListItem>
<Para>
<filename>interfaces\libpq\Release\libpqdll.lib</filename>
- Import library to link your program to libpq.dll
</Para>
</ListItem>
<ListItem>
<Para>
<filename>interfaces\libpq\Release\libpq.lib</filename> - Static library version of the frontend library
</Para>
</ListItem>
<ListItem>
<Para>
<filename>bin\psql\Release\psql.exe</filename> - The <ProductName>Postgresql</ProductName> interactive SQL monitor
</Para>
</ListItem>
</ItemizedList>
</Para>
</Sect1>
<Sect1>
<Title>Installing the libraries</Title>
<Para>
The only part of the library to really be installed is the
<filename>libpq.dll</filename> library. This file should in most cases
be placed in the <filename>WINNT\SYSTEM32</filename> directory (or in
<filename>WINDOWS\SYSTEM</filename> on a Windows 95/98 system). If this
file is installed using a setup program, it should be installed with
version checking using the VERSIONINFO resource included in the file,
to ensure that a newer version of the library is not overwritten.
</Para>
<Para>
If you plan to do development using libpq on this machine, you will have
to add the <filename>src\include</filename> and
<filename>src\interfaces\libpq</filename> directories to the include
path in your compilers settings.
</Para>
</Sect1>
<Sect1>
<Title>Using the libraries</Title>
<Para>
To use the libraries, you must add the <filename>libpqdll.lib</filename>
file to your project (in Visual C++, just right-click on the project and
chose to add it).
</Para>
<Para>
Once this is done, it should be possible to use the library just as you
would on a Unix platform.
</Para>
</Sect1>
