Hi all,

(OK maybe mostly Michael :-))

I've spent hours trying to make Postgres unit working on Win32 (using the pq.dll from cygwin contributions). I even made the from-scratch-miniport, but still all I get is RE 216 (Access Violation) on pqSetDBLogin and it's the same problem when I compile the program by Delphi5. Any ideas? Could it be some calling conventions problem?

Thanks, Vitek

PS.:
The library itself works, because I'm able to connect to the remote Linux/Postgres server with psql.exe.

Send me what you have, and I'll have a try.

Hi,

here comes the source of the mini-unit and the crashing test program (both FPC and Delphi5).

If you want the DLLs I used, get them at http://www.volny.cz/vtech/pgdll.zip (cca 250KB).

Thanks, Vitek

try changing the 'cdecl' with 'stdcall'; Windows libraries use the stdcall convention instead of cdecl.

I can't test it myself since I have no running postgresql server to test with.

Michael.

I tried 'stdcall' already and it's the same :-(

Hola,

I tried 'stdcall' already and it's the same :-(

Zeos has a header translation of PostgreSQL:

Hope it helps.

Cool,

this thing really works :-))))

Muchas gracias, Vitek
