So with this confidence in the package I thought I'd improve things by linking in the database option. That's where my problem starts. I went to CPAN to find a DBI and DBD for Postgres (had to grab the ODBC DBD as there wasn't one for Postgres), trouble is that the install of the DBI pgsql relies on dynamic libraries so I was hoping there was a binary port of these modules or advice on installation? Sorry I forgot to mention the most important part and that is that the files libpq.so and libpq-fe.h do not appear to be present under my Cygwin installation . The next thing I tried was the perl DBI module Postgres-1.4, however when compiling this I got the following errors. gcc -c -I/usr/local/postgres95/include -DPERL_USE_SAFE_PUTENV -fno-strict-aliasing -I/usr/local/include -DUSEIMPORTLIB -O2 -DVERSION=\"1.4\" -DXS_VERSION=\"1.4\" -I/usr/lib/perl5/5.6.1/cygwin-multi/CORE Postgres.c Postgres.xs: In function `XS_PGconnPtr_getline': Postgres.xs:148: `sv_undef' undeclared (first use in this function) Postgres.xs:148: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once Postgres.xs:148: for each function it appears in.) Postgres.xs: In function `XS_QUERYPtr_fetchrow': Postgres.xs:339: `sv_undef' undeclared (first use in this function) make: *** [Postgres.o] Error 1 Can someone help me please to get Perl and Postgres working?
