win32 api
Hi all Does anyone know where I can find some references to API calls such as those exported with /usr/include/w32api/winreg.h ? I'm rather curious as to what the parameters are intended for... not all of them are obvious.

building dll's under cygwin
Hi all Seems I've been on the receiving end of all the advice so far.. hope this will change in the future :) Until then.. here is the next piece of pain ;) I use the autotools(all of them) to build my project. I've read the whole of chapter 25 of the Autobook-1.3, and all I could find on dll's in the faq and in this list's archives.. and I'm still stumped :( Here is what my compiler tells me: cd . \ && CONFIG_FILES= CONFIG_HEADERS=config.h \ /bin/sh ./config.status creating config.h config.h is unchanged make all-recursive make[1]: Entering directory `/cygdrive/e/projects/myproject' Making all in libsrc make[2]: Entering directory `/cygdrive/e/projects/myproject/libsrc' /bin/sh ../libtool --mode=link c++ -g -O2 -o libpmfp.la -rpath /usr/local/lib --no-undefined --version-info 0:0:0 common.lo pmfp.lo pmfp_log.lo crypto.lo mckey.lo libtool: link: warning: undefined symbols not allowed in i686-pc-cygwin shared libraries rm -fr .libs/libpmfp.la .libs/libpmfp.* .libs/libpmfp.* ar cru .libs/libpmfp.a common.o pmfp.o pmfp_log.o crypto.o mckey.o ranlib .libs/libpmfp.a creating libpmfp.la (cd .libs && rm -f libpmfp.la && ln -s ../libpmfp.la libpmfp.la) make[2]: Leaving directory `/cygdrive/e/projects/myproject/libsrc' make[2]: Entering directory `/cygdrive/e/projects/myproject' cd . \ && CONFIG_FILES= CONFIG_HEADERS=config.h \ /bin/sh ./config.status creating config.h config.h is unchanged make[2]: Leaving directory `/cygdrive/e/projects/myproject' make[1]: Leaving directory `/cygdrive/e/projects/myproject' Now, from what I understand, the --no-undefined switch should pre-empt any " warning: undefined symbols ..." warnings. I suspect if this is solved, then the dll will be created. In my configure.in i do have AC_LIBTOOL_WIN32_DLL, which seems to be the only major thing to look out for. Anyone else had this problem before ? thanx -- Jean le Roux Binary Entropy Catalyst Cellular: 083 505 6443 I owe the public nothing. -- J.P.

w32api header problems
Hi guys I need to include /usr/include/w32api/winbase.h in order to use the GetVolumeInformation(...) system call under windows. However, as i metioned in an earlier mail, DWORD seems to not be defined. I tracked DWORD's definition down to windef.h.. but it seems the whole include chain is a bit funny.. there are lots of inter-dependencies which are not satisfied. Does anyone have any words of wisdom to make life a little easier, or do I simply have to test for, and include, all the headers in w32api ?

cygwin console
Hi all Here's another newbie question.. I could find no help in the FAQ for this: Are there any better cygwin consoles out there that the default one that's installed off the web ? It's rather limited and slows down development :(. I'd love something with a scrollback history for instance, or simply more displayed lines.

libstdc++ troubles
Hi all First off, lets get it in the open that I'm a newbie at cygwin ;) Here is my pain: I'm trying to port a .so from Redhat 7.1 to Windoze (all falvours) dll. I've installed cygwin (all packages that seemed relevant, which means I skipped stuff like the jpeg tools, tcl etc.). I also got a tarball of libstdc++-v3 from ftp://ftp.xraylith.wisc.edu/pub/khan/gnu-win32/cygwin/snapshots/ and copied that to /usr/include/g++-3/ I still can't manage to 'make' though, the c++ headers are causing major conflicts in terms of re-declarations of types, with eachother. Perhaps I should also mention that I'm using the autotools in this effort. Could you guys tell me the correct way to go about what I'm trying to do.
