Can you please explain this a bit more? What exactly are these
applications doing? I'm asking because one way to extract the constants
via an application is grep in the VC++ include directory. How are the
apps in question extracting constants?
One example is the following code employed by a user to determine the
value IID_IActiveDesktop:
#include windows.h
#include shlguid.h
#include stdio.h
#include string.h
void print_guid(const char *name, const GUID *guid)
{
int mem[4]; /* Assume sizeof(int) == 4 */
int i;
memcpy(mem, guid, sizeof(mem));
printf(%s: 0x, name);
for (i = 0; i 4; i++)
printf(%X, mem[i]);
printf(\n);
}
int main(void) {
GUID template = IID_IShellView2;
GUID cls = CLSID_ActiveDesktop;
GUID iid = IID_IActiveDesktop;
print_guid(template, template);
print_guid(cls, cls);
print_guid(iid, iid);
return 0;
}
This code was compiled VC++ and run to extract IID_IActiveDesktop.
From what the OP stated, he never looked at the header files, just
used this 'blackbox' approach.
Hmm, that looks... interesting. No worries for the CLSID value which
can easily be extracted from the registry (HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID),
but otherwise...
FYI, I already asked for legal advice about the situation with Mingw64,
which is different, but might give some important insight. kIf you give
me some hints about these apps, I'll forward your request as well. The
reply might take some time, though.
No worries, I would very much appreciate the legal advice around this
and will gladly hold off doing anything with the patch until I've
heard back.
Ok, I'll forward this problem.
Did you have a chance to follow up on the 'blackbox' approach to
including IActiveDesktop in w32api?
Thank you,
Chris

Cygwin = 1.7.6 open message queues - permission denied
Hi, I noticed that I get a permission denied error when I try to open a message queue in the same process or in an other process. The problem can be reproduced using the code given at: http://sourceware.org/ml/cygwin/2009-09/msg00629.html I tried several versions: 1.7.7 (from the installer): permission denied 1.7.6 (0.230/5/3 2010-08-16 16:06, downgraded using the installer) : permission denied 1.7.5 (0.225/5/3 2010-04-12 19:07, extracted cygwin-1.7.5-1.tar.bz2 from one of the mirrors): mqueue works. Another thing I noticed is that the execute permission won't be set for the owner of the message queue file. E.g. in mq_open I set (S_IRWXU | S_IRWXG | S_IRWXO), but when looking at the created file in the cygwin shell (located in /dev/mqueue/) the permissions are set to -rw-rwxrwx. But it doesn't seem to have any impact on the permission denied problem, since the execute permission isn't set in any of the tested versions.

Re: Cygwin = 1.7.6 open message queues - permission denied
On Oct 6 10:13, Manuel Wienand wrote: Hi, I noticed that I get a permission denied error when I try to open a message queue in the same process or in an other process. The problem can be reproduced using the code given at: http://sourceware.org/ml/cygwin/2009-09/msg00629.html Confirmed. I'll investigate. Another thing I noticed is that the execute permission won't be set for the owner of the message queue file. E.g. in mq_open I set (S_IRWXU | S_IRWXG | S_IRWXO), but when looking at the created file in the cygwin shell (located in /dev/mqueue/) the permissions are set to -rw-rwxrwx. But it doesn't seem to have any impact on the permission denied problem, since the execute permission isn't set in any of the tested versions. The S_IXUSR bit has no meaning for message queues. In Cygwin it's used to signal that the message queue is still being initialized. The initializing process always creates the file with S_IXUSR bit. When the initalization has been finished, it removes the S_IXUSR bit.

libpq: problem with shared library
Hello,
I'm trying to use PostgreSQL C API under Cygwin, but libpq attempts load a very
strange shared library. On run-time it states:
error while loading shared libraries: ?: cannot open shared object file: No
such file or directory
and yes, name of the missing shared library is literally a question mark.
To reproduce the problem, all it takes is just to use the library:
#include libpq-fe.h
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
PQconnectdb(dbname=test);
return 0;
}
Compiled with:
gcc -o pqtest pqtest.c /usr/lib/libpq.a
What could possibly cause this? Thanks in advace.

Hi,
for some reason when this error message appears it has some problems
showing you which dll it isn't able to find. It happened to me with both
this question mark and with available dll files (while another dll was
the one really missing). What I did to see which dll was really missing
was to execute strace program. This should pop up a windows message
with the real problem.
Hope this works for you.

That appears to work fine most of the time, at least I haven't seen this issue in my tests. Can anyone think of a reason why it might turn it into an absolute path such as 'K:\cygwin-2\Cygwin\mintty.lnk' instead?

cygwin sshd priviledge problem on 2008
Hi I hope this is the right maling list for this issue. I have cygwin sshd service installed on windows 2008 server SP2. I setup the cygwin ssh server by answering yes to all questions asked by sshd-host-config and letting it create the cyg_server user etc. If I do simple commands then ssh is working just fine(ls, cp etc). But it fails when I am trying to do few system commands from a linux box. E.g ssh administra...@neptune 'ping 10.10.10.1' If I do ping locally then it shows successful ping but if I do it as shown in line above the ping gets executed but always returns failure. But reboot works fine. Also I noticed that when I use some windows system tools e.g. devcon, whether directly or through bat files, the actual execution is fine but the command always fails. But if I execute exact same thing in cygwin shell in that machine, locally it is successful. I think I am having some permissions problem which I am unable to figure out. Here is my /etc/passwd file output. Also after some time if the machine is idle the ssh just stops working and I have to reboot the system. Just stopping and starting the service again does not work.

RE: In what way is /cygdrive special WRT to permissions?

THIS IS INCONSTENT BEHAVIOR. Cygwin 1.5 did not have this behavior. Regarding the mount of drive letters via /etc/fstab. I am not sure what the documentation should say about this. Overriding the default mount of a single drive letter in fstab actually seems to work, although it simply reproduces the same behavior as the default. Even if I understood the actual behavior, I regret that am not familiar with the ways of Cygwin source maintenance to make the documentation changes. I have to leave this to somebody else more qualified.

While debugging I found a subtile synchronization problem in the message queue implementation which apparently never was a problem in W. Richard Stevens original implementation. Under some circumstances a deadlock could occur because the Windows scheduler didn't give any time to another process waiting for the same event object. I fixed that now by splitting the single event object which was used to signal both, a full as well as an empty queue. into two separate event objects. So, that's why the fix took a while longer than anticipated.

Re: cygwin + xwin in win7 as unprivileged user?
It's a multiuser windows 7 lab environment where the only thing I can count on is that the individual users will do whatever they want to. I'm having to forcibly kill the x-windows process rather than just use a plain signal termination. It's ignoring a vanilla taskkill. I haven't tried kill from inside cygwin.

RE: In what way is /cygdrive special WRT to permissions?
There is no doubt that this behavior changed from 1.5 to 1.7. The instant I upgraded from 1.5 to 1.7.7, build scripts that test for the abilty to write to the directories in F: instantly started reporting the directories were not writeable using test -w, yet you can still create and write files via Cygwin. Furthermore, the user build can also create files and directories in F: using windows, so the OS apparently thinks the user build has these access rights as well. Is it possible that test -w may have a bug? The thing that is weird is that the explicit mount of //vega/repository on /repos with noacl has the the desireable effect. It you log in as Administrator the files appear to be owned by Administrator and if you log in as build, the files appear to be owned by build. I would assume this is the result of guessing the permissions when noacl is used. The explict mounting of //vega/repository is the workaround I eventually settled on.

At the risk of taking this thread a little off topic, why do your build scripts explicitly check for write access to these directories? I agree that it would be good to keep this working in order to maintain compatibility with older Cygwin releases, but the build scripts we use where I work don't bother to check for access to things before using them. They just assume that they have the necessary access and then fail with an explicit error when those assumptions are faulty. I also always considered the check before you use methodology to be a bit risky to begin with. The reason being that between the time you check for access and the time you try to actually use that access another process could remove the access or even the entire resource. At that point you fail as if you never bothered to check for access in the first place, so your logic had better be able to deal with that somehow. If you're going to have logic to handle failed access attempts, you may as well abandon the access checks. :-) -Jeremy -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple

Larry is right this is likely off topic but since a possibly similar message was on this list a few days ago I can tell you that there appears to be a problem with Windows permissions allowing Cygwin to open a socket. This isnt technically Cygwin's fault as it is a Windows permissions thing, but if you are affected by this, AND snmpwalk wants a socket to do its scanning then snmpwalk wont be able to open a socket and you may not get any more of an informative message other than Sorry, can't do it. At least the other app had an informative message stating that a socket could not be opened. I'm honestly not sure if this will help you or if its way off base, but at least it will give you something to check on.
