Library build failing on windows

[Virviil]

I'm trying to use diesel in project, developing in windows, pgsql is installed, C compilers probably not.

So my code is

#[macro_use]
extern crate diesel;

fn main() {
    println!("Hello, world!");
}

With cargo:

[dependencies]

diesel = "*"

And after

cargo build

i get this error:

It looks like pg_config.exe isn't on your PATH. How did you install postgres on your machine? Can you make sure that executable is on your path and try again?

I have installed it by the "official" way frm here: http://www.enterprisedb.com/products-services-training/pgdownload#windows
...\PostgreSQL\9.5\bin realy was not in my PATH.

After adding problem is not solved.

Can you give the output of where pg_config.exe and also the output of pg_config --libdir?

I've set up appveyor to confirm I didn't have anything funky setup locally. The only step required to get it to build was SET PATH=%PATH%;C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\9.4\bin (note: Make sure you run cargo clean after setting that if it wasn't set before). I'm going to close this issue, as the library does appear to build on Windows just fine.

I'm happy to help you figure out the issue with your setup though, feel free to continue to comment.

Yes, cargo clean solved the problem, thank you. Mb you previous post should be somehow added to readme or faq, i didn't found anything about PATH, and in windows world it's probably not so obvious as in nix.
