From 65a00f30352a3c0ab5615fac008735b103cfa5bb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Noah Misch Date: Fri, 8 Dec 2017 18:06:05 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] MSVC: Test whether 32-bit Perl needs -D_USE_32BIT_TIME_T. Commits 5a5c2feca3fd858e70ea348822595547e6fa6c15 and b5178c5d08ca59e30f9d9428fa6fdb2741794e65 introduced support for modern MSVC-built, 32-bit Perl, but they broke use of MinGW-built, 32-bit Perl distributions like Strawberry Perl and modern ActivePerl. Perl has no robust means to report whether it expects a -D_USE_32BIT_TIME_T ABI, so test this. Back-patch to 9.3 (all supported versions). The chief alternative was a heuristic of adding -D_USE_32BIT_TIME_T when $Config{gccversion} is nonempty. That banks on every gcc-built Perl using the same ABI. gcc could change its default ABI the way MSVC once did, and one could build Perl with gcc and the non-default ABI. The GNU make build system could benefit from a similar test, without which it does not support MSVC-built Perl. For now, just add a comment. Most users taking the special step of building Perl with MSVC probably build PostgreSQL with MSVC.
