Hi Ferenc, some years ago I had a problem with main function in a library under VMS The linker just didn't search for it in a library. To force it to search a reference in a non-library part of source did help. I just added the following code in the main source file: extern int main(); static int (*force_linker_search_for_main_in_library)() = main; maybe something similar will help you regards kf -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
