@yoramdelangen

I have added Postgresql support for Windows, it is almost ready for a PR. I used the prebuild binaries provided by EDB. https://www.enterprisedb.com/download-postgresql-binaries

Making the process very simple, but I ran into some questions:

  • There is no license or contribution file in it, and without I receive an error after successfully build/compiling the extension. I could fix it by grabbing it from the Linux/MacOS source..
  • Should I target the latest version of PostgreSQL (version 17.4 instead of 16.8)
  • I use the prebuild binaries from EDB is that allowed to use or should I stick to the source of postgresql.org? edit: on the postgresql.org website they reference for prebuild binaries the EDB website.

Advanced users can also download a zip archive of the binaries, without the installer. This download is intended for users who wish to include Postgres as part of another application installer.

EDIT:
Copied the contents of the COPYRIGHT file into the config/source as text.
