Hi, i had the same behaviour under windows xp. It seems that you need to give back the end to the system sometimes in a while(1) unless it will take all resources of the system and the child won't do anything.
i had the problem waiting for a network message which wasn't able to be received as the process took all resources. The solution for me was only to put a usleep in c code to be shure that windows take back the hand from time to time. By the way this doesn't append for me on windows 2000.... i used windows xp sp2 with cygwin 1.5.10-3 Bertrand Le lun 06/09/2004 Ã 10:48, Corinna Vinschen a Ãcrit : > On Sep 6 08:42, Artem Gluhov wrote: > > After 5 minutes running this script i got a windwows XP > > error: not enough system resourses. > > > > <---------------------- > > #!/bin/bash > > while (( 1 )); do > > ls > /dev/null; > > done; > > ----------------------> > > Hmm, I tried it for 15 Minutes but the resource usage was stable. > Is that with the current Cygwin release? > > > Corinna -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
