Hi,
This is just as much a PostgreSQL question as a Python one, but here
goes...
I've been trying to port the psycopg interface to a Win2K client
(server runs FreeBSD). I'm using MinGW32 rather than CygWin, and having
trouble compiling the libpg library as a DLL.
I started off with the following:
configure --with-template=win --without-zlib
make -C src/interfaces install
After complaints that I was missing "Makefile.p ort" I took
a copy from Makefile.win.
My Win2K/MSYS/MinGW32 setup doesn't have netinet/in.h, ioctl.h, inet.h,
or arpa.h, so I removed the #includes to these header files in
pg_config.h. I sort of assumed that none of these would be needed, and I
would end up linking to the Windows socket library instead of all the
Unix stuff. Massive overoptimism replaced by confusion and gloom.
The dlltool can't find a lot of the socket call targets, fe-connect.c
and fe-misc.c being the main offenders.
Can anyone help, please? I know there are some psycopg enthusiasts
about; I'd be very grateful for some pointers. I'd rather use MinGW32
than CygWin; I could swap but my understanding was that MinGW has all
that's required.
Alternatively, are there any VC++ Studio binaries available? Not that
I approve of course ;-)
Cheers,
Dave

Have you tried any of these? http://www.stickpeople.com/projects/python/psycopg/
There are also pyPgSQL win32 binaries at http://pypgsql.sf.net

I'd recommend you statically link in libpq into your Python PostgreSQL
interface. That's what I'm doing for the win32 releases of pyPgSQL. I'm
also, like you, using mingw for these and I use this patch I created
many moons ago: http://pypgsql.sourceforge.net/misc/postgresql.html

I'm trying to understand and document how to install pypar on Win2k.
Pypar needs to be installed with some MPI library code and also needs
libpython23.a and other files which are not included with the python
Windows binary installation. I've got that worked out but still no
success.
Here's the error message I'm seeing:

Hey,
I am embedding Python in an application, and have an efficency concern
about this. There is a Python method which is called from the main
application (written in C) many times per second (I am using the
PyObject_Call function). Unfortunately this seems to be a bottleneck, as
when the performance is compared to another language frontend of this
application, when there involves many transitions from the core
application to the...

Hi,
I want to write a small system that is transaction based.
I want to split the GUI front end data entry away from the file handling and
record keeping.
Now it seems almost trivially easy using the sockets module to communicate
between machines on the same LAN, so that I want to do the record keeping on one
machine.

I have a lousy little Python extension, generated with the generous help
of Pyrex. In Linux, things are simple. I compile the extension, link it
against some C stuff, and *poof*! everything works.
My employer wants me to create a Windows version of my extension that
works with the vanilla Python 2.5 from python.org.
My employment contract states that I won't be required to run Windows, and
I desperately want to honor that clause....

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
