I have been trying again to get CDDB and DiscID to work on cygwin. I made it farther than I did last time I tried: I was able to get cdrommodule.c (a C extension module to the Python modules) to compile this time (problems with include files). My program now runs, but it gags when DiscID tries to read the toc header (cdrom.toc_header(device)). It looks as if the problem is related to an ioctl:
ioctl(cdrom_fd, CDDB_READ_TOC_HEADER_FLAG, &hdr) I am accessing the cdrom as /dev/scd0. The open call completes successfully. Is there a known incompatibility between ioctl and cygwin? I'm new to cygwin, so I don't know what else to try now. -- Jeffrey Barish -- 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/
