Thanks Bill!   Do you have a sample meson command for building that you could share?

Thanks, Mark

I just downloaded the Postgresql 17.0 and the extracted directory postgresql-17.0/src/tools does not contain
the “msvc” directory as it has since I’ve been building Postgres 12, 14, and 16.   How am I supposed to build
PostgreSQL for Windows now?   I’m not sure what msvc_gendef.pl does.   How do we build Postgres for Windows
using Visual Studio?

You’ll want to use meson to build PG.  See the docs here:
