Обсуждение: porting libpq?
Hi.. I need to port libpq to a platform that doesn't have a POSIX-like network API, so I was wondering if the network usage on libpq was layered somehow? I noticed that it has code for win32, so I guess there's something, but I didn't see much. Is there any documentation on how to do this? Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.. Ariel.

There is no documentation I know of about porting libpq to other platforms. It normally "just works", with some adjustments for Win32, as you mentioned.

No "problems" yet, just looking at what I need to get started.. I noticed that it includes other libraries like openssl.h and krb5.h, do any of those make their own calls to the posix network api? Also, is it supposed to also work with filesystem sockets too? I've been looking at the code and I see there's calls to send, recv, socket, etc directly, so I guess I'll have to isolate them myself.. It seems to include pthreads too, but it looks like it should be easy to replace. Thanks for the reply.. Ariel.

Also, is > it supposed to also work with filesystem sockets too? SSL, Kerberos are all optionally added via configure, so they aren't required initially. Filesystem sockets is similarly controlled by HAVE_UNIX_SOCKETS. > I've been looking at the code and I see there's calls to send, recv, > socket, etc directly, so I guess I'll have to isolate them myself..

Yes, the networking part is a requirement. -- Bruce Momjian <bruce@momjian.us> http://momjian.us EnterpriseDB http://postgres.enterprisedb.com + If your life is a hard drive, Christ can be your backup. +
