Cygwin with the possible exception of mSQL-interface. Since I don't
have mSQL installed, I skipped this tool.
Except for dealing with a missing getopt.h (oid2name) and HUGE (seg),
the bulk of the patch uses the standard PostgreSQL approach to deal with
Windows DLL issues.
I tested the build aspect of this patch under Cygwin and Linux without
any ill affects. Note that I did not actually attempt to test the code
for functionality.
The procedure to apply the patch is as follows:
$ # save the attachment as /tmp/contrib.patch
$ # change directory to the top of the PostgreSQL source tree
$ patch -p0 </tmp/contrib.patch

It is now obsoleted by the new unlisten command but still useful if you want unlisten a name computed by the query. Note that a listen/notify relname can be any ascii string, not just valid relation names. min(x,y) max(x,y) return the min or max of two integers. -- Massimo Dal Zotto <dz@cs.unitn.it>
