Hi all, This has been discussed before, but I have been unable to find any solutions to this problem.
Basically I'm trying to call cygwin functions in the cygwin1.dll from a Windows (msvc) application by calling LoadLibrary() and GetProcAddress(). I can see that the cygwin authors have made provision for this (or what looks like a provision) with dll_dllcrt0 (a non-cygwin initialization function.) But when I call it, it crashes. Here is my code: per_process p; ZeroMemory((void *)&p, sizeof(per_process)); m_dllHandle = LoadLibrary("cygwin1.dll"); p.calloc = calloc; p.magic_biscuit = sizeof(per_process); p.malloc = malloc; p.realloc = realloc; p.free = free; p.hmodule = m_dllHandle; dll_dllcrt0 = (int (*)(HMODULE, per_process *))GetProcAddress(m_dllHandle, "dll_dllcrt0"); dll_dllcrt0(m_dllHandle, NULL); // crash here I'm shooting in the dark mostly -- has anyone had any success with this? Any help or any code in whatever form would be very much appreciated!
