Is that the syntax - I can try it and see what I get. > Another way is to attach gdb to a hanging process in order to also get the > stack trace. I'll post any progress. Good - you can explain Cygwin PIDs to me. When I run one of the osg examples from a bash prompt in Cygwin it appears the PID I am seeing does not always match the PID that Windows Task Manager is showing. I actually have my Cygwin set up so it passes through login.exe before starting bash.exe and you never see the pid for bash shell but instead see the entry for Bash with a pid that belongs to the Login process so it becomes difficult to know where to attach. > > > I'll turn that on and try a build.

For OSG - no, but I do like using X for some things and just to experiment. bk _______________________________________________ osg-users mailing list osg-users@lists.openscenegraph.org http://lists.openscenegraph.org/listinfo.cgi/osg-users-openscenegraph.org
