It sounds like I'm in quite a fix here. If PGXS is currently a no-go in Windows, then that renders the temporal extension incompatible with Windows since it uses PGXS to install... OTOH, if there's some remote possibility of some workaround solution for Windows to get PGXS and/or the temporal extension installed, I'd be grateful if someone could help me along with it (further to your below suggestions, since I'm floundering around in unfamiliar territory here). -----Original Message----- From: Magnus Hagander [mailto:magnus@xxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Thursday, September 30, 2010 4:35 AM To: Dave Page Cc: Turner, John J; pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: Missing path in pg_config On Thu, Sep 30, 2010 at 00:55, Dave Page <dpage@xxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > On Wed, Sep 29, 2010 at 7:23 PM, Turner, John J > <JJTurner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: >> Hello, >> >> I've installed the PostgreSQL 9.0 binary package for Windows XP 32-bit and >> I'm trying to install the temporal extension module available in >> pg_Foundry.

I don't know pgxs internals well enough, but would it work if we just shipped the pgxs file - for users of mingw? I have a feeling it won't - the thing uses files generated by the postgresql ./configure-script, doesn't it? -- Magnus Hagander Me: http://www.hagander.net/ Work: http://www.redpill-linpro.com/ -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
