[postgis-users] PostGIS, Proj-Lib and GDAL Structure

[Darafei "Komяpa" Praliaskouski]

Hello Michael,

It seems you are trying to build a complex thing but refer to PostGIS as a
specific compiled windows binary. If you are taking PostGIS apart for your
application, you should be doing that on source code and build system
level.

The source code is available at https://github.com/postgis/postgis and
inspecting the build system scripts will let you understand how exactly
PostGIS chooses which library to use - that will let you point the things
to the versions of libraries you want, and not the builder of your binary.
