Re: Linking against static libpq using Visual C++

Thanks for your answer. I was indeed using the static libpq version from
the installer.
I tried to compile my own one with Visual Studio 2010, but this caused a
lot of problems due to the fact that Visual Studio 2010 has changed the
manifest tool.
So I built a static version using Visual C++ 2008, which worked without
problems.
However, when building my application with Visual C++ 2008, the
following errors are lamented:

1>libpq.lib(fe-connect.obj) : error LNK2019: Unresolved external
reference "__imp__WSAIoctl@36" in Funktion "_setKeepalivesWin32".
1>libpq.lib(ip.obj) : error LNK2001: Unvresolved external symbol
"__imp__WSAIoctl@36".
1>libpq.lib(fe-connect.obj) : error LNK2019: Unresolved external

Which libraries are missing now?
