plea for Windows build help

I'm trying to build the default 32 bit dll on Windows using MS Visual
C++ from the command line. I have searched this mailing list but found
no discussion of these problems.

I've followed the "COMMAND LINE METHOD" instructions in
win32-compilation.html, except for using the currently available
versions of slproweb's OpenSSL distro and Visual C++ Express. In an
unsuccessful attempt to avoid complications, I started with the last
bundled source distro, psqlodbc-08.03.0400.tar.gz
.
My PC is running 32 bit Vista.

First, I changed the "afxres.h" reference in psqldb.rc to "windows.h",
since afxres.h does not exist anywhere on my PC, and added

#ifdef IDC_STATIC
#undef IDC_STATIC
#endif
#define IDC_STATIC (-1) // all static controls

to psqldb.rc (I guess this constant is probably intended to be set in
afxres.h?). With these changes, I get all the way to the final link,
whereupon I get

socket.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _getaddrinfo@16
socket.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _freeaddrinfo@4
socket.obj : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol
__imp__getnameinfo@28 referenced in function _SOCK_connect_to
..\Release\psqlodbc35w.dll : fatal error LNK1120: 3 unresolved externals

from link.exe. Internet searches say that these symbols should be
defined in ws2_32.dll, but once again, ws2_32.dll does not exist
anywhere on my PC. I see that the winsock dll's are present in
\Windows\system32, and I'd think they should be capable of basic address
resolution.

Any tips would be greatly appreciated.

I dont know why afxres.h is not present on your system. It should be the pa=
rt of the distro or vc install but you can fix the link errors by adding
ws2_32.lib in your library references. The dll is not used by the linker :)=
