Hello, I am enhancing/fixing a perl tool (published to CPAN) which allows to import files into a ClearCase database (vob): synctree. Among the enhancements is support for cygwin. While testing it on cygwin, I tried and failed to import it itself, from the perl install directory, which is under /usr/lib.
The tool spawns an IBM utility built for Windows (in this case): cleartool. It is this cleartool which cannot access C:\cygwin\usr\lib I notice that the Windows cmd shell has the exact same problem, which disappears if using instead: C:\cygwin\lib My question is (as I'll have to implement a workaround) how can I detect this issue? I already found: $ df /usr/lib Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on C:/cygwin/lib 244196348 35784364 208411984 15% /usr/lib Is this the answer to my question?
