Hello all,

As a pljava user for the last 3 or 4 years, but with limited skills in building software from source, my priorities for pljava binaries would be (all for Postgres 9 and Java 1.6) :


a)     Windows 7 on 64 bit

b)      Ubuntu 10.10 (Linux base)

c)       Windows 7 on 32 bit

Regards

I've had to build pljava to run on Sun Solaris on Sparc, X86, and IBM 
AIX on Power.   all these were with Postgres 8.4.   Sadly, all this was 
done on secure internal systems, and I'm not allowed to share any of the 
results.   I believe I did post some stuff on this email list about what 
it took to get it working on Solaris, with Sun Studio C etc.

Hi all,

I've myself used it on Solaris amd64, though compiled with gcc.  I'm  
working on another C module I've built against x86 PG 9.0 on Linux with  
the Sun (now Solaris) Studio 12.2 C compiler.  If there are any issues on  
Solaris with Studio I'll fix them.  Sadly I'm using 11 Express and can't  
make Solaris 10 binaries at the moment and unfortunately I do not have  
access to Sparc or Power machines.

Right now I'm working on Linux binaries, both amd64 and i686.  Next I'll  
take a look at what I can do about Windows.  My CPU does not have that  
virtualization thingy so I'm not sure I can run it in VirtualBox.

I would also like a binary for PostgreSQL 9.x on Windows 7 Professional
64-bit and Java 1.6.

Is there a difference between using 32-bit and 64-bit PostgreSQL. If so
I would want it for 32-bit PostgreSQL

Are there any existing binaries that would be compatible with my target
system?

Cheers, Eric

Unfortunately, I do not have time to work on PL/Java binaries for Windows  
myself until sometime in February.  All my attempts at cross compiling  
have failed so far.  That said, if there is a commercial reason to hurry  
it up, something may be arranged through 2ndQuadrant as they are paying  
for my time.

I recall reading somewhere in the installation/compilation guide for  
PostgreSQL that 32bit applications do not run "natively" on 64bit CPU/OS  
on the amd64 architecture and will be slower.  I advice not to take my  
words for it and either google for more information or test it.

None that I know of.  You can use PL/Java compiled with JDK 5 with a Java  
6 virtual machine but it needs to be compiled for PostgreSQL 9.

Rats. I'm currently doing a feasibility study of using PostgreSQL and 
need to have some conclusions by the end of the month. I hate having to 
build projects from source as it always seems to be 10 times more effort 
than I expect. I'm wondering if it would be less effort to take one of 
the existing Windows binaries, and just install that version of 
PostgreSQL and friends :-)

If someone else is having trouble building binaries, I'm probably going 
to have the same trouble.
