Several points to follow up on: ./configure && make && make install on
slackware 8.1 also did not produce a libpq.a file which I can use for
static linking. Tried (from postgresql src dir):
-- Cmd Line
ar r libpq.a `find /usr/local/src/postgresql-7.2.2/src |grep -v main.o`
ranlib libpq.a
--
And no go... can anyone tell me how to create a static library? Or which
object files to copy from postgresql source code to be able to link them
with testpg.c (note testpg.c can be found in the documentation for
postgresql - my program is significantly smaller and uses less postgress
calls.)
-- Clarification
ALso above, i meant, libpq.a seemed like too little, but it was 3am :)
