I, and others, ported JCHEVM to Cygwin, during the past 2 months; there

The port was made in order to be able to "study"  JCHEVM on the Windows
platform. I understand, in fact, that having the Cygwin layer running on
top of Windows may compromise speed performances of any JVM. In
principle, the "-no-cygwin" option of GCC should allow us to produce an
executable that doesn't need the cygwin1.dll library, but:

1. I haven't yet tried to enable it
2. The functionality of  cygwin1.dll might be embedded in the
executable file (in this case the Cygwin layer is hidden in the .exe)

I don't think it does include cygwin in any form.  It builds against
the mingw libraries instead.

Mark.

Hi Mark,

that's interesting and I think it's worth trying to build JCHEVM in that way.

I don't know though if Windows issues the signals that JCHEVM needs....
