Hello list, I've been trying to get the PostgreSQL PL/R library to compile on windows (http://www.joeconway.com/plr/). The author of this library says the problem is likely because the distributed R.dll isn't compiled as a shared dll. Is this the case? If so, is there any way to compile it such that it is shared? If that's not the case, than maybe someone on this list has a better understanding of the errors I'm getting (below).
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
