I need to store some data (a few kB) non-persistant. On a real UNIX I would use /var/run, because after a shutdown all its content is lost. But on cygwin /var/run is stored on disk.
I cannot use an environment variable, because different processes need to read/write the data. /proc is non-persistant (in respect to a reboot), but It is not a generic storage place. What can I use with cygwin instead? Installing third party software is not an option, it must work with a standard Windows (and cygwin). -- Ullrich Horlacher Server und Virtualisierung Rechenzentrum TIK Universitaet Stuttgart E-Mail: horlac...@tik.uni-stuttgart.de Allmandring 30a Tel: ++49-711-68565868 70569 Stuttgart (Germany) WWW: http://www.tik.uni-stuttgart.de/ REF:<20191212120041.ga7...@tik.uni-stuttgart.de> -- 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
