How to build with Microsoft Visual C++ Express 2005

You might need:
  1. Register PostgreSQL directory to your environment.
  2. Resolve redefinitions of ERROR macro.

----
1. Register PostgreSQL directory to your environment.

The directory configuration options are found in:
  Tool > Option > Projects and Solutions > VC++ directory

You might need to add the following directories:
  into "include files"
    - C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\8.4\include
    - C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\8.4\include\internal
    - C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\8.4\include\server
    - C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\8.4\include\server\port\win32
    - C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\8.4\include\server\port\win32_msvc
  into "library files"
    - C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\8.4\lib

----
2. Resolve redefinitions of ERROR macro.

It might be a bad manner, but I'll recommend to modify your wingdi.h.
