( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??

I've been trying to install DBD::Pg on a 64-bit AS Perl.

Using the makefile.pl generated makefile, the compile works, but the link step fails because it is trying to use the 32-bit libpq.lib.

I've built 64-bit versions of these and succeeded in linking against them manually to produce a DBD::Pg that works, but I cannot work out how to modify the makefile.pl to incorporate the changes.

Essentially all that needs to be done is to change the link step reference from libpq.lib to libpq64.lib, but I'll be damned if I can work out how the makefile.pl picks up/generates the references to libpq.lib.

Can anyone offer pointers?

For a full patch, it would also be necessary to make the generated reference--libpq.lib vs. libpq64.lib--dependant upon the flavour of Perl it is being generated for. Clues how to go about that also appreciated.

to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":


  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
