Anyway I don't think that this package won't be included in the distro just because I didn't succeed to properly find out how many people voted for it. From what I see on the list, I think that Sergey's packages are very well accepted and they'll be all included in the distro even if the number of voters was not enough. Having so many people reviewing this packages is also a sign that they vote for their inclusion even if they haven't stated it explicitly.

Re: xwinclip test 6 hacked to leave selection untouched
Hi, I'm curious has it been forgotten that I already fixed the selection grabbing over two months ago? Either way the latest code does the clipboard chain stuff and handles multiple windows ( -screen option), and some wierd bug were it doesn't free the dll properly. I can't get it to link properly on gcc 3.2. The problem being the -mno_cygwin option doesn't seem to work. The dll must be without cygwin1.dll given that as a default it is not placed inside ?:\windows\system. Maybe this is a point for another list. If the latest code is wanted I'll post it, I'm pretty much finished with what I want to do with it. I can't for example see the point in spending much more time on it if it never get's included.

Re: X11 and Heavy loadbalancing?
I *think* I understand what Jack is trying to do. The normal term for what he is attempting is host integration. This is where host-based applications are integrated into web-based applications. The most common example of this is the IBM product Host On Demand. The obvious way to do host integration with X Windows is to use the same approach as HOD. Use a java applet implementation of X (WeirdX) and place the applet in a web page. This approach has the same problem as HOD - a very heavy applet download. PapaFox Hmm, I think the Enduser should not use an Applet to use X-via Web. A More efficient Way is an normal Java Desktop-Application that can be autoupdated via the Webstartfeature (in JDK 1.4.0 Standandard allready involved) The original Projectplan was based on my Idea, to construct up an easy to use Free-Software CrossPlatform alternative against the commercial CITRIX / MS-Windows Terminalserver dominated Environment for Endcustomers with the Security of SSH and Highavaiability on Serverside (Disk I/O, Logon-Speed, Failoverc, Enterprisefeatures) On my Ressearche i have found: 1.An Applicationserver such as (commercial) Oracle 9iAS or JBoss (free) (J2EE 1.2-Compliant) brings up an scalable faulttolerant, scalable, highavaiabil Framework for Servercontainers. (Such as E-Mail, HTTP, SOAP, SMTP, POP3, Faxserver, X11, Filerserver and so on) 2. The ORACLE J2EE compliant Applicationserver has implemented a lot of this Features (called as CollaborationSuite) and all Servercontainers like E-mail server can be simply checked into the runnign AppServer (for Example: java -jar ./myOnwnSMTPServer.jar) (it detects and installs the new J2EE Container automatically, by the Path of an XML-Installdefinitionfile) 3. The J2EE-Appserver Certificationprocess at SUN Microsystems restrict propritary Extensions to an J2EE Appllicationservers to enforce compatibility to the Java Enterprise Standard (J2EE ServerContainers can also run on JBoss (the OpenSource Applicationserver) 4. Java is Platform Independant and has rolebased Security Conecepts, it is working on every Environment, all J2EE ServerContainers can use this Features, the only things to do is, writing, code for the Serverside Support of XFree to Support Java X-Clients like Weired. 5. An other Critical Position is the Disk I/O-Traffic and the RAM usage by every User thadt runs Hugh Applications on Serverside like OpenOffice, WINE and so on. (ps: i know thadt the Displayresults is only worked out by the X-Clients, ok?) 6. To solve the Problem for Disk I/O and RAM Usage, a Databasedrivven Filesystem is a Powerfull choice (like the ORACLE Internetfilesystems IFS). (Note: Microsoft implements MS-SQL-Serverfeatures in to the Windows NTFS6-Filesystem, but Oracle has this Feature over 2 Years ago on the Market and has spend its Sourcecode to the OpenSource Comunity under the Terms of the GPL) Ok, it is a big Project and a lot of Work to implement/configure a more advanced Solution as Microsoft/Citrix-Metaframe, but a great Challenge.

Re: xwinclip test 6 hacked to leave selection untouched

Re: xwinclip test 6 hacked to leave selection untouched
Hi Harold, From what I understand, you are grabbing ownership of the selection when Cygwin/XFree86 loses focus... that is not the correct solution, Nope, it only grabs X selection when both the windows clipboard has changed (in latest code) and any cygwin/xfree86 class window is activated. I.e. it won't grab it if a user moves from one cygwin/xfree86 to another. When the cygwin/xfree86 looses focus it first looks for XA_PRIMARY and then XA_SECONDARY and then clipboard, not that the clipboard code works with motif apps. The basic one window code (no clipboard chain) was there two months ago and posted to the group. I.e. it fixed what was broken in test6 and fixed again by the recent poster. as other X Server on Windows implementations out there (not to name any names) are able to watch the X selection without taking ownership of it ever. Which was the whole point of my fixes, you yourself claimed you could not see what was wrong with test6 prove to me with code was your response. So I did, you said great it looks like it works, thanks for the contributions I'll put it into a new test release, however you were busy and it would take a while. Which from the level of involvement you have with cygwin was all too reasonable. It sounds likes we need to watch the selection on the root window, rather than stealing it for our own. If you did this, then I misunderstood what you were trying to say. However, I doubt that you did this because grabbing ownership of the selection when we lose focus would be unnecessary. Indeed I did. It never grabbed the selection when the focus was lost, only when the window was activated again. i.e. you have gone into windows and the clipboard is different so grab the windows clipboard. The current version only does this when the clipboard has changed (And across -screen's). I had tried to explain this before (as had other posters) but you didn't see anything was wrong, so I made it work in a consistent fashion with windows and most x servers and so it wouldn't break nedit (main motivation). I wait until a solution looks clean before I do anything with it, and stealing ownership on losing focus didn't look like much of a solution. Again it was only on gaining of activation, and you didn't at the time see anything was wrong with the test6 code. You had wanted it external when you mentioned this (or internal with a disabling switch). My solution was designed from the outset not to intefere with the inner workings of the xserver and to be within the X selection system, something that commercial solutions obviously aren't limited by.

Re: XWin.exe -- xinit link
xinit does 2 things - it launches the X server and then one or more X clients. If you want to customize the X client part (including the Window Manager), create/modify/edit the file $HOME/.xinitrc. If you want to customize the X server part, create/modify/edit the file $HOME/.xserverrc. Alternatively, you can pass command-line options to the X server by specifying them on xinit's command-line after --. For example, xinit -- -rootless will cause XWin to startup in rootless mode. As for the console window, there is no way to avoid it being there until xinit completes, which doesn't happen until after the X server shuts down. This is really no different than if you use a Windows batchfile to fire up XWin and one or more local X clients. It's a necessary evil.

Re: xwinclip test 6 hacked to leave selection untouched
Robert, In an intial test of your patch, I noticed that your patch, after the first selection, only tends to grab every other selection that I make on both the Windows clipboard and the X clipboard. For example, I go into emacs under X and select a region, then I go to emacs under Windows and paste the selection with the middle mouse button; the first time it works fine; now I select some text in emacs under Windows (which causes the selection in emacs under X to be unhighlighted) and go to paste it in emacs under X, but instead of getting the new selection coming from emacs under Windows I instead get the same old selection from emacs under X. Now, if I go back to emacs under Windows and select something else, then when I go to emacs under X it pastes the correct selection. This process repeats and it always seems that every-other selection is gotten but that the ones in between are never picked up. Any ideas? Harold

Re: beinnner frustration ...
Kenn, You have not installed Cygwin/XFree86. You need to run Cygwin's setup.exe again (you do not need to uninstall Cygwin, setup is smart enough to download only the new packages), and you need to be sure to expand the XFree86 category and select the XFree86-base package. You can then start Cygwin/XFree86 by double-clicking the startxwin.bat file that should reside in c:\cygwin\usr\X11R6\bin\startxwin.bat. After you have that working, you can make a copy of startxwin.bat, being sure to leave it in c:\cygwin\usr\X11R6\bin, REM out the lines that start xterm, twm, and xsetroot, then change add the -query parameter to the line that starts XWin.exe, as described in the user's guide.

However, I can not figure out how to run an XFree86 session under Cygwin on my WinXP Pro system to get a login session on my RH 7.1 system. I have played with the files in /etc/X11/xdm on the RH system. I played with XWin, xinit, and startx with -queue host and -broadcast options under cygwin. All I get on the Cygwin side is no X11 window at all or a blank checkered default pattern X11 window. I do not seem to be getting any error messages besides Giving up. I've been dealing with X11 for over 10 yers. But this XFree86 stuff is causing me to pull out my hair! BTW, XDM is running fine on the RH box and Gnome comes up just fine.

PATCH: Implementation of functions in netdb.h
This is an implementation of [set|get|end][serv|proto]ent functions as
defined in netdb.h. It was written primarily so I could port the DHCP
software from ISC to Cygwin.
Firstly, this is a larger than trivial submission, I suppose I will
have fill in a standard assignment form. However, I thought I post
this first to see if I'm on the right track.
This has been coded against the 1.3.14-1 sources. That's what was
available when I started, and I can't read the CVS repository directly.
I only have the W2K machine to work and test on. Consequently I can't
be
sure that the Win95/98/ME path names for the protocol and services
files
are correct and work. If they aren't, then the files will not be
opened,
and all calls to get[serv|proto]ent will return NULL. the set and end
functions will quietly do nothing.
I have implemented all the functions in a new file called netdb.cc. I
wasn't sure if I should add the new file, or add functions to net.cc.
I
went for the new file, in the expectation that I would add get|set|end
functions for the hosts and networks files and some stage in the
future.

Suspected bug in RXVT
I think the following is a bug in RXVT: if you - click with the left mouse button somewhere, and then - use the scrollbar to go to some other region in the scroll buffer and - click with the right mouse button, you will select a region that apparently extends from - where you clicked the right mouse button to - the screen edge *in the direction* of the left mouse click. By comparison, with xterm, the whole region - from left mouse click - to right moust click is selected. Thomas Mellman [EMAIL PROTECTED] Viren? Wir wissen nicht was Ihr Arzt empfiehlt.

The reason for this is obvious: I turned off ntsec, thus the .rhosts file is owned by whoever starts rshd (probably SYSTEM because I run it as a service). I'm running Cygwin on W2K/NTFS; my CYGWIN environment variable is ntea nontsec. Have you considered leaving ntsec on in the service environment but turning it off in yours, after you get in? Pierre Thanks for the reply! Yes, I did consider it but I didn't really follow up on this idea because this would mean that all files created by subsequent processes like rsync would end up using ntsec and files being read would have the wrong permissions (i.e. from ntsec, not ntea). Unless, of course, I turn ntsec off again as soon as ruserok() has completed. The only way to do this would be in /etc/profile. Is this safe, i.e. will Cygwin see the environment changing and turn off ntsec for *all* subsequent syscalls and processes, even after forking, setting new userids, ? Another problem would be that other services which don't start shells such as the IPC daemon, apache, etc. would end up using ntsec. Wouldn't it be a good idea to store uid and gid in the extended attributes as well and use them if ntsec is turned off? At least for me this would be the perfect solution Cheers, --Christian -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/

readlink is not recursive in cygwin (no -f option)
I made some kind of patch to use ActivePerl within a cygwin console. The
problem was that ActivePerl doesn't dupport posix paths so I made the
following:
1) A readlink recursive that returns the real file:
#!/bin/perl
# script that does recursive readlink
# exit with error status if no arg or arg doesn't exist or is not a symlink
if($ARGV[0] eq or ! -e $ARGV[0] or ! -l $ARGV[0]){ exit 1; }
$file=$ARGV[0];
$realfile=; # this will store each dir in $file for each iteration in do-while
$restofpath=$file; # the rest of the path that is to be checked
$nextdir=$file;# the next dir to check
do{
$nextdir=~s/^(\/{1}[^\/]*)\/{1}.*$/$1/;
$realfile=$realfile.$nextdir;
$restofpath=~s/^\/{1}[^\/]*//;
#print \nnextdir: $nextdir\n;
#print realfile: $realfile;
if(-l $realfile){
$realfile=readlink $realfile; $realfile=~s/\/{1}$//;
#print - link to $realfile;
if ($restofpath eq ){ $restofpath=$realfile; $realfile=; $nextdir=$realfile;
}
}
#print \nrestofpath: $restofpath\n;
# update variables for next iteration
$nextdir=$restofpath;
}until($restofpath eq );
# return the real file
print $realfile\n;
2) a interpreter to make a workaround:
#!/bin/bash
# script that tricks ActivePerl for Windows to work on Perl scripts under cygwin
# (a workaround for posix-windows paths)
# TODO: eventhough this is a workaround, perl doesn't support symlinks, so I need
# a function that does(ie): getrealfile /usr/local/bin/xnet, returns
# /dit/DIT/scripts/cygwin-scripts/xnet
# `- done: function is readlink, although it doesn't support the -f option
# as in linux, it's not recursive.
# I made a script that implements this (rreadlink)
#
# $ActivePerl is a symbolic link to wherever the real ActivePerl perl.exe resides
ActivePerl=/usr/local/bin/perl
file=`rreadlink $1`
shift
args=$@
path=`expr $file ':' '\(.*\)\/\.*' '|' $file`
script=`expr $file ':' '.*\/\(.*\)' '|' $file`
cd $path
$ActivePerl $script $args
cd $OLDPWD
3) Now this can be used for executing ActivePerl scripts:

Re: gcc 3.2 stringwchar_t link problem
Hi there,
See my post few weeks ago (29/10/2002)
subject : conflicting types for `typedef struct mbstate_t`(was link troubles
with wcslen)
also the one from zhang le on 27/10/2002
missing wcsncmp,wcscpy,wcsncpy and more...
or a search in the archives on wcslen
no one on the list acknowledged the pb (cfg ?) and i noticed that gcc-3.2-2
probably solved issue 2) of my post because it had the following comment
(msg [ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: gcc-3.2-2 10/11/2002):
'However, the only noticeable change from the last release was an attempt to
correctly define mbstate_t.'
I'm positive that wcslen is in newlib but i'm not sure for
wcsncmp,wcscpy,wcsncpy as i didn't needed them a that time.

Hello all,
Having happily upgraded my Cygwin to include gcc 3.2, I've
encountered a show-stopper: The linker can't resolve symbols
involving wide C++ strings. Here is an example:
#include string
#include iostream
using namespace std;
int main(int argc,char *argv[])
{
std::stringwchar_t test;
}
-
$ g++ test.cpp
/cygdrive/c/DOCUME~1/nigels/LOCALS~1/Temp/ccHP4AMl.o(.text+0x25):test.cpp:
undefined reference to `std::basic_stringwch
ar_t, std::char_traitswchar_t, std::allocatorwchar_t

undefined reference to `std::basic_stringwch
ar_t, std::char_traitswchar_t, std::allocatorwchar_t
::~basic_string [in-charge]()'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

Any hints, suggestions, or duh-read-the FAQ responses, appreciated.

File autocomplete behaviour change in current Cygwin
In 1.3.12-4, when I have a testprogram.c and testprogram.exe under the current directory and type ./test [TAB], the system will complete it to ./testprogram.exe, but in 1.3.15-2 only ./testprogram. appears. I noticed that in 1.3.15-2 ntsec is default to on but when I turn ntsec off it still does not work. I must manually chmod -x test.c to make the it work as I desired. I suppose the 1.3.12-4 behaviour is more desirable, because it is easier to use, esp. when one does not want ntsec. Is it possible to revert to the original behaviour?

Re: Hey hey, I now have the emacs 100% cpu usage bug too [CGF, this one is for you]
Well... I got the same problem... but only when trying to useit with X11 (i.e. emacs --no-windows works inside the terminal, but emacs with $DISPLAY=localhost:0.0 or :0.0 locks on startup with 100% cpu usage). I got TERM=linux in console and TERM=xterm in X, but there seems to make no difference to emacs. Another thing... it only started to behave like this when I updated from cygwin.dll with some 14 in it's version to the 15 version, the login program and some x2x (I didn't quite pay attention at the moment, but thinking back...) I saw someone doing a strace -w -o strace.log emacs, so i did this too; the output on the window was: 98385063 [win] emacs 1632 sig_send: wait for sig_complete event failed, signal 1 4, rc 258, Win32 error 0 The tail of the 9 mb strace.log was: 176 38384669 [sig] emacs 1632 wait_sig: Got signal 14 167 38384836 [sig] emacs 1632 sig_handle: signal 14 200 38385036 [sig] emacs 1632 sig_handle: signal 14, about to call 0x201240A4 172 38385208 [sig] emacs 1632 setup_handler: suspending mainthread 225 38385433 [win] emacs 1632 sig_send: Waiting for thiscomplete 0xC4 250 38385683 [sig] emacs 1632 interruptible: pc 0x77F96D34, h 0x77F8, inte rruptible 1, testvalid 1 5380 98385063 [win] emacs 1632 sig_send: wait for sig_complete event failed, signal 14, rc 258, Win32 error 0 732 98385795 [win] emacs 1632 sig_send: returning -1 from sending signal 14 184 98385979 [win] emacs 1632 kill_worker: -1 = sig_send, Win32 error 0 277 98386256 [win] emacs 1632 kill_worker: -1 = kill_worker (1632, 14) I can also send you the full log if necessary.

Re: Thread.start called but threads not available
Jacques, I don't know how much of the Gnu Compiler for Java shares with the Gnu C and C++ compilers, but why do you assume that availability of threading in gcc implies that Java threads will be available via gcj? Moreover, why are you using gcj at all? Is there a reason the Sun J2SDK is unacceptable? It is far more mature and is eminently usable under Cygwin. I do a lot of Java work these days, so I'd be interested in hearing what is the appeal of gcj. The following paragraph was included in Chris Faylor's the release announcement for gcc 3.2.1 (Subject: [ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated/new: gcc 3.2-1, gcc2-2.95.3-10, gcc-mingw-3.2-20020817-1; Date: Tue, 15 Oct 2002 17:06:20 -0400 (EDT)): gcc 3.2-1 contains gcj which various people have reported as being either functional or broken. I'll probably strip it out of future releases and offer it separately. It seems that under Cygwin at least, gcj might not be ready for production use.

What is the W2K equivalent of chgrp groupname file?

This has me wondering about group ownership of files, specifically: What is the W2K equivalent of the command chgrp groupname file?

If I then try my initdb, it hangs itself creating the template1 database, like in case the ipc-daemon isn't running. The above implies that you are not using the latest Cygwin PostgreSQL, please upgrade to the latest.

The pyserial code was assuming if TIOCMGET was defined, then a bunch of
other things would be too (which was a bad assumption). I have patched
pyserial (locally) and it seems to work fine now. Thanks for your quick
response.

Re: gcc (as.exe) install error
Ok, so I found what appears to be my problem. I had installed cygwin to a network drive (samba running on a linux machine). Apperently, the installer expects to be able to create symlink-like files on the Win2K system that it was running on, and those don't work over the samba server. I ran the reinstaller to a local drive, and it now works just fine. This is somewhat irritating, as it means that I've gotta install this environment locally on every machine that I'd like to use it on, was well as updating each instalation individually. Is there a way around this? Is this issue a known bug, or should I further investigate my setup? Thanks a lot for the help. --Danny Danny wrote regarding 'Re: gcc (as.exe) install error' on Sun, Nov 10 at 17:59: I'm not in front of the machine, but for the time being I'll add this: When I copy that path and paste it in on the command line, it runs just fine (well, as fine as something that expects something on STDIN can run).

Is there a fix for this that works, or will be incorporated
into a future version of cygwin? I looked in the FAQ and
saw nothing about it. I have some nightly scripts that clean
some directories, and if I leave a shell open in one of the
directories, the scripts just run forever trying to remove
the directory.
I am using the following patch to unlink() on a version of Cygwin that
is several months old. It does nothing unless there is a directory
named .cygdel at the root of the drive holding the file to be deleted.
In that case, it moves the file there before trying to delete it.
Make sure you make the directory mode 777 when you create it...
Works for me -- I think I posted this to the list but may be wrong.

How do I stop newly-created files from being +x?
I'm using Cygwin 1.3.15-1 with ntsec on an NTFS filesystem. I have my umask set to 077, and when I create a new file from a Cygwin application, it's permissions are rw-r--r--, which is what I expect. But if I create a new file from a non-Cygwin application (e.g., copy a file using Explorer), Cygwin applications show its permissions as rwxr-xr-x, which is not what I expect. Is there any way to make it so that files created by non-Cygwin applications do not appear executable to Cygwin applications? I think this is happening because the ACLs on my directory are: c:\franl MYDOMAIN\litterio:(OI)(CI)F MYDOMAIN\Domain Users:(OI)(CI)R Everyone:(OI)(CI)R I think this is happening because the F (full control) access is marked (OI)(CI) (object inherit + container inherit). I've played with cacls.exe to attempt to fix this, but to no avail. Anyone else having this problem?

ramped CPU problem with fetchmail

Problem summary: It appears that the CPU ramp problem with emacs that has been discussed on this mailing list is not restricted to emacs. Fetchmail, running in daemon mode, reliably exhibits the same behaviour. The exact setup is that the fetchmail daemon is NOT able to successfully look up the name of my mailhost (it's inside a VPN that isn't dialled up when the spin happens). The fetchmail daemon, whether run as fetchmail -d or as a service will then start consuming 99-100% CPU until it is killed. It should be noted that if it can successfully get the DNS name of the mail server it doesn't exhibit this behaviour (until it can't hit it). Attached are strace and cygcheck output. It appears that the WM_TIMER signal sets the process spinning out of control. Maybe the winsock is in some kind of invalid state because of the dns failure and makes the timer fail? Pure speculation.

re: Problem with bison-1.75-1
I think I've found the cause and cure to the bison 1.75-1 bug in which C output is not generated. The new version of bison uses m4 to generate the output file (thanks to Paul Eggert for telling me this). However, when installing bison 1.75-1, I've found that the cygwin setup program does not cause m4 to be installed if m4 is not already installed. Furthermore, bison doesn't seem to produce any error message while running and m4 is not present.

Is this safe, i.e. will Cygwin see the environment changing and turn off ntsec for *all* subsequent syscalls and processes, even after forking, setting new userids, ? What do you mean setting new userids? It is safe to turn ntsec off in the /etc/profile or ~/.bash_profile sourced by the login shell. Of course the login shell itself will still have ntsec on, so it needs to reexec itself after turning ntsec off. Another problem would be that other services which don't start shells such as the IPC daemon, apache, etc. would end up using ntsec. Not sure if that's really a problem. At any rate that can be controlled with the -e argument of cygrunsrv, but I don't know what will happen in each case. Wouldn't it be a good idea to store uid and gid in the extended attributes as well and use them if ntsec is turned off? At least for me this would be the perfect solution They are, of course, but Cygwin does not report them when ntsec is off. Changing that behavior would probably hurt other users. Asking for a special cmueller field to CYGWIN is unlikely to yield a positive reply. I have reread your original e-mail and I don't fully understand why nontsec helps you. The reasons you give are not compelling. Even with nontsec, the files you create are not owned by Administrators. Also, the directories created by Cygwin with ntsec do have inheritance turned on. In fact that inheritance determines the ACL of files created by Cygwin when ntsec is off, and also the ACL created by most Windows applications. Incidentally you can display these stupid permissions with getfacl and change them with setfacl, so you could add Administrators if needed. Is your group Administrators? If not, wouldn't it help to change it to that?

I noticed that whenever I type 'ls -', the output gets delayed for a few seconds. This never happened to me using the old cygwin. There is a FAQ entry, Why is Cygwin suddenly *so* slow?. Maybe it describes your problem.

Re: SPEWS blocked me
OK, you might be right. Thanks that you at least provide a way to bypass the foolish anti-spam mechanism. The fact is that I hate the way SPEWS works. It thinks it is the crusade and refuses to remove individual IPs. The following is what I got from them: We are blocking 21vianet.com because they ignore spam complaints. When the 21vianet spam stops, the blocks will come down. Not before. If you have a problem, complain to 21vianet. They are the source of your problem. Cameron I don't think I can easily educate my ISP, nor can I switch my ISP because of this. -- But I realize that I am not much better in that I want to cure them instead of being cured And this is going off-topic. I stop now. Best regards, Wu Yongwei --- Original Message from Christopher Faylor --- Is SPEWS necessary? I see that the whole DSL IP range of our company's ISP is blocked. Terrible that each user needs to beg the mercy of SPEWS or individually send request to register their e-mail addresses safely to use in Cygwin. Yeah. It's really really terrible isn't it? The horror of having to take an extra five minutes to register yourself. The mind numbing searing pain is almost inconceivable. No intention to insult. Just feel there may be alternate ways to do that. Once our mail server is blocked by a open relay list, but it is easier to remedy and I feel good that a security hole in our mail server is eliminated. Given that a marjority of the spam that makes it by all of the other filters is blocked by OsiruSoft, I don't think I'm going to be eliminating it anytime soon, especially when you can trivially bypass the block. cgf -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
Re: PHP is minimal
Hallo Jacques, I try to recompile mysql under cygwin, but it's a pain (every intermediate .exe in the makefile core dumps...) with gcc 3.x or gcc 2.95. I will be happy if someone has a solution to get a php as delivered actually + image functions. I can offer a precompiled MySQL including the client lib. The Cygwin based MySQL server doesn't run well, but it is possible to use the client lib: http://koeln.convey.de/cywgin/mysql/ Gerrit -- =^..^= -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
[ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: binutils-20021117-1
I've made a new version of binutils available for download. This is just a refresh from sources.redhat.com. A notable change is the addition of Egor Duda's --enable-runtime-pseudo-reloc option which allows almost transparent linking of dll's without the need of a def file. However, this option requires functionality in the cygwin DLL which is not yet present. Stay tuned. To update your installation, click on the Install Cygwin now link on the http://cygwin.com/ web page. This downloads setup.exe to your system. Then, run setup and answer all of the questions. You'll find binutils listed in the Devel category. If you have questions or comments, please send them to the Cygwin mailing list at: [EMAIL PROTECTED] . I would appreciate it if you would use this mailing list rather than emailing me directly. This includes ideas and comments about the setup utility or Cygwin in general. Of course, it always pays to check the mailing list archives prior to posting to save yourself the embarrassment of asking a question that has been asked multiple times before. *** CYGWIN-ANNOUNCE UNSUBSCRIBE INFO *** If you want to unsubscribe from the cygwin-announce mailing list, look at the List-Unsubscribe: tag in the email header of this message.

Re: ramped CPU problem with fetchmail

This is, what?, the third time today that someone has posted saying that they've noticed the discussion while missing the fact that the problem is supposed to be fixed in the latest snapshots. Thank you for your reply. I have tried the proposed solution at your request (I downloaded and attempted each of the 13th, 14th, 15th and 16th snapshot fixes). The attached trace file is the result (it appears to be the same under the 15th and 16th snapshots- I did not bother generating for 13th 14th). It is still unfortunately not correctly functional. Instead of ramping my CPU (now I only see very small spikes of 100%) it aborts the fetchmail daemon.

GCC: what is wrong with function
I got problem compiling some software and see that some of them core dumps when
calling functions deefined in their code.
Here is a very simple test program.
It runs perfectly as we can expect under AIX.
#include stdio.h
int p(char *s);
int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
int ind = 0 ;
int r = 0 ;
for ( ind = 0 ; ind argc ; ind++ ) {
printf(%d:%s\n,ind,argv[ind]) ;
}
printf(-\n ) ;
for ( ind = 0 ; ind argc ; ind++ ) {
char *ptr=argv[ind] ;
printf(%d %d\n,ptr, argv[ind]) ;
printf(%d %d %s\n,ind,sizeof(ptr),ptr) ;
printf(%d %d %s\n,ind,sizeof(argv[0]),ptr) ;
printf(%d %d %s\n,ind,sizeof(int),ptr) ;
r = p(argv[ind]) ;
printf(%d %d %s\n,r,ind,ptr) ;
}
return(0) ;
}
int p(char *s){
printf(dans p:%d %s\n,s,s) ;
return(2);
}

and the result is :

gcc version 3.2 20020818 (prerelease)
Sometimes it coredumps, but this time we can see :
1) the code in p function isn't executed
2) the following printf after the call show a return value (r) incoherent.
I got gcc using setup, it seems to be a prerelease. But I don't belive gcc is
concerned, I surely miss something?
I have no time to investigate.
Some explanation.
