> It is recommended that most users download the binary distribution for
Windows, available as a graphical installer package
from the <SPAN

is only intended for people developing <SPAN
CLASS="PRODUCTNAME"
>PostgreSQL</SPAN
>
or extensions.
</P
><P
> There are several different ways of building PostgreSQL on
<SPAN
CLASS="PRODUCTNAME"
>Windows</SPAN
>. The simplest way to build with
Microsoft tools is to install <SPAN
CLASS="PRODUCTNAME"
>Visual Studio Express 2013
for Windows Desktop</SPAN
> and use the included
compiler. It is also possible to build with the full
<SPAN
CLASS="PRODUCTNAME"
>Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 to 2013</SPAN
>.
In some cases that requires the installation of the
<SPAN
CLASS="PRODUCTNAME"
>Windows SDK</SPAN
> in addition to the compiler.
</P
><P
> It is also possible to build PostgreSQL using the GNU compiler tools
provided by <SPAN
CLASS="PRODUCTNAME"
>MinGW</SPAN
>, or using
<SPAN
CLASS="PRODUCTNAME"
>Cygwin</SPAN
> for older versions of
<SPAN
CLASS="PRODUCTNAME"
>Windows</SPAN
>.
</P
><P
> Finally, the client access library
(<SPAN
CLASS="APPLICATION"
>libpq</SPAN
>) can be built using
<SPAN
CLASS="PRODUCTNAME"
>Visual C++ 7.1</SPAN
> or
<SPAN
CLASS="PRODUCTNAME"
>Borland C++</SPAN
> for compatibility with statically
linked applications built using these tools.
</P
><P
> Building using <SPAN
CLASS="PRODUCTNAME"
>MinGW</SPAN
> or
<SPAN
CLASS="PRODUCTNAME"
>Cygwin</SPAN
> uses the normal build system, see
<A
HREF="installation.html"
>Chapter 15</A
> and the specific notes in
<A
HREF="installation-platform-notes.html#INSTALLATION-NOTES-MINGW"
>Section 15.7.5</A
> and <A
HREF="installation-platform-notes.html#INSTALLATION-NOTES-CYGWIN"
>Section 15.7.2</A
>.
To produce native 64 bit binaries in these environments, use the tools from
<SPAN
CLASS="PRODUCTNAME"
>MinGW-w64</SPAN
>. These tools can also be used to
cross-compile for 32 bit and 64 bit <SPAN
CLASS="PRODUCTNAME"
>Windows</SPAN
>
targets on other hosts, such as <SPAN
CLASS="PRODUCTNAME"
>Linux</SPAN
> and
<SPAN
CLASS="PRODUCTNAME"
>Darwin</SPAN
>.
<SPAN
CLASS="PRODUCTNAME"
>Cygwin</SPAN
> is not recommended for running a
production server, and it should only be used for running on
older versions of <SPAN
CLASS="PRODUCTNAME"
>Windows</SPAN
> where
the native build does not work, such as
<SPAN
CLASS="PRODUCTNAME"
>Windows 98</SPAN
>. The official
binaries are built using <SPAN
CLASS="PRODUCTNAME"
>Visual Studio</SPAN
>.
</P
><P
> Native builds of <SPAN
CLASS="APPLICATION"
>psql</SPAN
> don't support command
line editing. The <SPAN
CLASS="PRODUCTNAME"
>Cygwin</SPAN
> build does support
command line editing, so it should be used where psql is needed for
interactive use on <SPAN
CLASS="PRODUCTNAME"
>Windows</SPAN
>.
