Обсуждение: PERL/POSTGRESQL HELP

Hello all,

Last week I emailed this list with this same question.  However, our
mail server crashed and we are now just getting back up.  Anyway, here
is my situation again:

I am trying to compile postgresql 7.2.1 on a Solaris 8 box.  Postgresql itself
compiles just fine.  However, I need the perl interface for postgres.  So when
I tried to compile postgresql with the perl interface (using ./configure --with-perl)  I received the following
message:

cc: unrecognized option `-KPIC'
cc: language depend not recognized
cc: Pg.c: linker input file unused since linking not done
cc -o blib/arch/auto/Pg/Pg.so  -G Pg.o -R/usr/local/pgsql/lib     -L/tmp/postgresql-7.2.1/src/interfaces/libpq -lpq
cc: Pg.o: No such file or directory
make[4]: *** [blib/arch/auto/Pg/Pg.so] Error 1

I have gcc-2.95.1 for my compiler that I downloaded from www.sunfreeware.com.

Any help on this problem is greatly appreciated.

Ryan

We try to compile the perl interface using the same compiler and
switches that the Perl installation claims should be used.  Apparently
you are using a prebuilt Perl installation that was built with Sun's
compiler.  Those switches won't work with gcc.

Best solution IMHO is to rebuild Perl from source using your gcc.
(While you are at it, you might want to request a shared libperl
be built, so that you can build plperl.)
