Can anyone help me figure out how to run/debug PostgreSQL in Eclipse on Windows? This is a cross post with
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/34733991/building-postgresql-in-eclipse-on-windows :
I'm trying to build PosgreSQL
in Eclipse CDT Mars on Windows using the MinGW-64 gcc 5.3.0
I installed MSYS2
and used pacman
to update all the software that came with it and install gcc etc.
I downloaded the PostgreSQL source code and tried to follow the docs but can't figure out where to download the dependencies? 1. libreadline5-dev
, 2. zlib1g-dev
, 3. bison (YACC)
, 4. flex
and where to save them to on disk?
I ran ./configure --prefix=$HOME/project --enable-depend --enable-cassert --enable-debug
and it seems to have completed with no errors, but I do not see anything at $HOME/project
?
I installed Eclipse CDT and added the include paths to the Environment:
I imported the project as Existing Code as Makefile Project.
When I try to build
the project Eclipse says Info: Nothing to build for postgres
When I try to run it a dialog box says Unable to Launch. The selection can not be launched and there are no recent launches
How can I run/debug PostgreSQL in Eclipse on Windows?
Thanks!
