  I've done that. I'm going to do this tomorrow if no one disagrees, as all it
  takes is uploading new packages.

 I don't agree.  (in mean, in principle, yes, but I don't think your
 proposed package naming/splitting is the right way to do it).

 #1. **Usually** it's nice if lib are the actual DLL- and linklib-
 containing package, and everything else goes into - packages.   Like
 libncursesX vs. ncurses:

 libncursesX  : DLLs
 libncurses-devel : static libs, headers, import libs
 ncurses  : the rest
 ncurses-demo : extra apps

 The exception is if the upstream package itself is called libsomething
 -- for instance, libiconv or libtool.

 Now. I'm not familiar with xml/xslt -- are they distributed as libxslt
 upstream, or as xslt?

Yes, they're distributed as libxml2 and libxslt.

 #2.  the two runtime library packages should be versioned.  e.g.

 libxml2_N where N corresponds to the -N.dll version number (eg.
 cygbz2-1.dll is distributed in libbz2_1 package.)

 Now, libxslt contains three DLLs with different DLL numbers.  There are
 two (three?) ways to handle this:

 a) bundle all of the DLLs into one DLL package, using the version
 number that is the maximum of all of the DLLs within.  Eg.
cygexslt-0.dll
cygxslt-1.dll
cygxsltbreakpoint-1.dll
 MAX(0,1,1) == 1, so these should be in 'libxslt1' package (that is,
 libxslt1-1.0.30-2.tar.bz2)  You need an '_', though, when the real
 package name ends in a numeral (xml2, bzip2).

 This is what I did with ncurses, etc (sans underscore, of course)

 b) bundle and use the SUM of all of the version numbers.  I don't know
 of any existing package that does this -- and it could lead to setup
 ordering errors if you ever move to (c), below.

 c) separate tarball for each DLL - this is what I did for libintl2 and
 libcharset1 (both from the same gettext source bundle).  Even if you
 split up the DLL packages, all of the -devel stuff can stay in a single
 -devel package.


 #3) **Ordinarily**, -devel packages should NOT be versioned.  So, your
 suggestion of 'libxslt-devel' (as opposed to 'libxslt1-devel') is a good
 one.  There are exceptions to this rule; see libpng, libdb)

That's because of the multiple versions, right? Like with pcre.

 So, I suggest

 libxml2_2   the runtime library
 libxml2-doc manuals, docs, etc

 libxslt1all three runtime libraries

Everywhere $cygwin_root is used, it is used with a trailing /, therefore, if

That's pretty much the layout I'm using. I just need to change the name of the

and the other runtime package needs to be libxslt1 not libxslt.

However, by doing this, now you no longer have a libxslt or libxml2 
package available.  Here's what I suggest:

create a dummy (empty) libxslt and libxml2 package, that require: their 
replacement.  e.g.  the dummy libxslt package requires: libxslt1, the 
dummy libxml2 package requires: libxml2_2

I guess the binaries (xmllint et al) should go
in -devel .
I dunno -- probably.  I normally put user executables into the 
undecorated package (libxml2, libxslt, ncurses), but if they are 
really just development tools then they should go into the -devel.

However, if you decide to put them into the undecorated packages, then 
ignore the stuff about 'dummy packages' above.  You'll still need to 
requires: DLLpackage though.

Now, this requires updating requires: lines on some setup.hints in other
packages -- but TRUST ME, it's better to face the pain now than later.


Oh well, tomorrow's another awk'ing day. Wouldn't an 'alias' flags be helpful in

No, I think alias flags would cause more trouble than they are worth. 
You'd end up with a corrupted setup.ini, but it would be extremely 
difficult to backtrack it through the aliases to figure out where the 
problem was and whodunnit.

But, it's a moot point right now, since we don't have aliases.

Thanks for the commit to bin/mknetrel. --enable-haifa should probably also
be added into CONFIGOPTS in extra/gcc2, to record the fact that Cygwin gcc2
was built with that option.

Sometimes, it is helpful to compare build logs from two different releases of a 
package.
Logging to pkg.out, the 2nd build overwrites the log from the 1st. Logging to 
pkg-ver-rel.out is more flexible.

This behavior is intentional.

   xterm Xt error: Can't open display: 127.0.0.1:0.0

I've prettified the output by wrapping long lines and
spacing stuff out.  The output differs slightly if the
command is issued from tcsh.  Basically, all the export
commands are replaced by setenv, and there is an error
saying that setenv is not found.  I didn't bother to
pursue the csh route.

I'm not sure if the references to ssh stuff is Xwin's
own use of ssh, or if it is related to my use of ssh to
connect to a VNC server.  The VNC server merely echos
the contents of localhost:0 to an external viewer
(another program).  This should not be visible to
the X server.  I use the same setup as administrator
with no problems.  In any case, the errors seem to
occur later on in the script.

The error from being unable to remove /tmp/.X11-unix is
strange.  Here are the details of that directory:

   drwxr-xr-x 2 Name None 0 Jan 29 04:57 /tmp/.X11-unix
   srwxr-xr-x 1 Name None 0 Jun 27 16:11 /tmp/.X11-unix/X0

Note that if I just ls -Fp /tmp/.X11-unix, the file X0
shows up as X0=.  The man page for ls doesn't say
what the = means.

I captured the output from the same command issued as
administrator.  Needless to say, none of the error
messages were present.  I also did not get a permission
denied in removing /tmp/.X11-unix.  I think this is the
key difference, as the only other differences in the
output are different numbers in the messages related to
ssh agent, and different home directory in the PATH.

On the other hand, the permissions for /tmp/.X11-unix
and X0 are exactly the same as on another PC which
doesn't experience the same problem.  On that PC, the
nonadministrator can startx without trouble.

Anyway, thanks for the suggestion on how to further
sleuth down the problem.  And thanks to anyone who can
suggest something further.

Re: two monitors

2003-06-28 Thread andrew brian clegg


Try the -multiplemonitors switch to XWin.exe -- the user's guide's often a
bit out of date for newer options, check in /usr/X11R6/bin/startxwin.bat
or startxwin.sh for the current set. Those scripts are the usual
recommended way to start the server anyway, rather than running it
manually.

(FAQ maintainers -- worth mentioning in section 3.2 of the FAQ that the 
script comments are more up to date than the manual?)

BTW your email address is in pretty poor taste...

IMO, this question (in fact, the whole thread) belongs on the cygwin-xfree

 Yeah, think it is around here the error is, my .X11-unix, it is owned
 by me, assuming Name is your name? 

Actually, that was my mistake.  Name is the userid on the
machine that doesn't have problems.  On the PC that only
lets administrator do startx, /tmp/.X11-unix is owned by
administrator, and does not have write permission for
anyone else.  

 Have you tried removed the file and subdir as admin, and then tried
 firing it up again, BTW My files has the rights 
 
 drwxrwxrwt+   2 flognat  None0 May 16 23:37 .X11-unix

   /Andy


Yes, if I remove /tmp/.X11-unix, it gets recreated by
the userid which does startx.  It is writable by
everyone, as is yours above.  For that reason, any
other user can also do startx.  That seems to solve the
problem.

So the problem is that the permissions got changed
somehow.  I'm pretty sure it happened when I setup sshd
according to
http://tech.erdelynet.com/cygwin-sshd.html.  This
procedure, contains the step chmod -R go-w /, which
narrows the accessibility of /tmp/.X11-unix to the only
creator.  I guess that it is an attempt to improve
security, given that sshd allows an external login.
However, the subsequent fixup chmod go+w /tmp is not
enough to open up accessibility to /tmp/.X11-unix.  

Another part of the problem is that /tmp/.X11-unix is
left behind after X windows shuts down.  This ensures
that the next user to do startx is using the directory
/tmp/.X11-unix created by someone else.  Thus, everyone
is dependent on the directory having write permission
by group and world.  The problem could be avoided by
having the X windows startup scripts/programs remove
/tmp/.X11-unix when X windows shuts down.

Thanks, Andrew, for your help in solving this problem.

Hey! My name is Robert and there's something I want to share with you. I'm
not going to lie, I am a salesman (obviously). A company I work with has
just joined the wonderful world of herbal medicine and I want to share
my REAL LIFE experience with you because this has changed my life. If it
hadn't worked for me, I wouldn't be here selling it today!

I'm not some guy who is just going to toss a few catch phrases at you
and give you some lame sales pitch. Why? Because my product is
absolutely real and recommended by doctors around the world. That's
right, I'm here to offer you a *FREE* bottle of VP-RX, one of the few
enlargement formulas for men that is actually recommended by doctors!
There's a lot that say it, but can they prove it like we can? NO.

This is the internet, it's tough to tell what is real and what is not;
who to trust, and who is just trying to scam you. When I purchased my
first bottle of VP-RX I was more than skeptical, but within 2 weeks I
was very satisfied with the results. Within 2 months I was happier than
I had ever been. This product added 3 1/4 inches to my manhood and my
wife was, shall we say, pleased. ;)

My product is not for everyone of course. Some people are just not
interested in being bigger. But guys, like I said before this IS the
internet; it can be totally anonymous. You can get your FREE bottle of
VP-RX and have it delivered to you descretely. If you like the results
you can stay on the pills. If you don't, you have nothing to worry about
because our product is 100% GUARANTEED or your money back! However, I
can tell you that we have never had an unsatisfied customer :).

So if you want to learn more about my product, take a second to visit
our website http://www.cheaponnet1.com/mka/m2c.php?man=3Dlkyb4. Here you can read the
medical facts and customer testimonials about VP-RX.

I doubt it, your not giving anyone much to go on. If you are having a problem

(and what output you received from the command), no?

As I said in a follow-up reply yesterday, basename is not yet in a Cygwin

What happens when you try and compile

If you get error's, try re-installing the 'gcc' package and/or the 'cygwin'
package, and if after doing so you still recieve error's, see

more information to help fix your problem.

Can you tell me what library are they in
 
 basename and dirname (aka libgen) has not yet made it into Cygwin. They
 will be
 available in the next in one of the upcoming 1.5 releases. When they are
 available, you will need to include 'libgen.h'.  For the errno and
 std{err,in,out} symbols you need to include 'errno.h' and 'stdio.h'
 respectively.

 1) Is this safe?  Will it catch all the zero bytes?
 Suppose there is a byte with all zeros.  Any carry bits
 propagating from its left will fall into the hole at its
 least significant bit and stop.  Since there will be no
 carry from its most significant bit, the LSB of the
 byte to the left will be unchanged, and the zero will be
 detected.
 2) Is this worthwhile?  Will it ignore everything except
 zero bytes?  Suppose every byte of LONGWORD has a bit set
 somewhere.  There will be a carry into bit 8.  If bit 8
 is set, this will carry into bit 16.  If bit 8 is clear,
 one of bits 9-15 must be set, so there will be a carry
 into bit 16.  Similarly, there will be a carry into bit
 24.  If one of bits 24-30 is set, there will be a carry
 into bit 31, so all of the hole bits will be changed.
 The one misfire occurs when bits 24-30 are clear and bit
 31 is set; in this case, the hole at bit 31 is not
 changed.  If we had access to the processor carry flag,
 we could close this loophole by putting the fourth hole
 at bit

Re: CygWin adding CRs, hurting CVS client/server communications?

2003-06-28 Thread Patrick Eisenacher

Works like a charm here, both for binmode and textmode mounts.

My system: Win2k, WinCVS and Cygwin SSH

The problem mentioned in your mailing list reference was fixed long time
ago.

Do your line endings change as well if you scp a textfile from your
client to your server? If yes, then we have indeed an ssh issue on WinXP
platforms. Otherwise your problem must lie somewhere else.

Patrick

Hey folx...currently using OpenSSH under CygWin on an XP box to communicate with a CVS server on a Linux box. Recently upgraded my CygWin installation (1.3.22(0.78/3/2), including OpenSSH to v3.6.1p1 (the latest available under CygWin), and now CVS client/server communications over SSH (CVS_RSH=ssh) don't work.

I've tracked the problem deep enough to suspect that SOMETHING in CygWin converts LF to CR+LF line terminators across SSH. This pretty much hoses CVS client/server communications, as the CVS server interprets all incoming lines as byte strings including a CR at the end (it treats LF as the actual terminator)...especially bad for pathname interpretation, but lots of other things may be affected as well. I've tried altering the CVS server code to eat the extra CRs, but too many other things break (including file data exchange I'd bet...can't tell which CRs are valid data and which are inserted by the system) for that to be effective.

Found a reference in the mailing list archives to a similar problem someone was having last October, but the solution was to install a snapshot from that time period which seems to be no longer available. I'm wondering if the fix for this issue never found its way into more recent versions of the CygWin system components? I've upgraded CVS on both client and server, but based on my testing, I don't think CVS itself is adding the CRs...please flame if I'm wrong on that one. g Not sure what else to do right now but do without version control for a bit...any better ideas?

autoconf mmap problem -- XP-specific?

2003-06-28 Thread andrew brian clegg


Hi folks,

A couple of days ago I built the cdrtools suite at work with no problems,
on a Windows 2000 Pro machine.

Today I am trying to build it at home on my Windows XP Pro box, but
autoconf hangs so it never even gets to the compilation stage. Autoconf
gets as far as checking if mmap works to get shared memory... and stops
dead. If I hit ^C a few times I get the following output:


checking if mmap works to get shared memory... rm: cannot unlink `conftest.exe':
 Permission denied
make[1]: *** [../incs/i686-cygwin32_nt-gcc/rules.cnf] Error 1
make: *** [all] Interrupt


I end up with an instance of conftest.exe in memory that cannot be killed 
from the shell:


[EMAIL PROTECTED] /usr/local/src/cdrtools-2.00.3
$ ps |grep conftest
 2680   12460   2680  con 1003 11:57:06 /usr/local/src/cdrtools-
2.00.3/incs/i686-cygwin32_nt-gcc/conftest

[EMAIL PROTECTED] /usr/local/src/cdrtools-2.00.3
$ kill 2680
bash: kill: (2680) - Operation not permitted


but which can be killed from Task Manager.

I'm aware that there have been issues with mmap() in Cygwin, e.g.:

http://mail.gnu.org/archive/html/autoconf/2002-07/msg00134.html

However both the XP and the Win2K machines are bang up-to-date as far as 
Cygwin goes, and have (AFAICR -- no access to work from here) exactly the 
same packages installed. Could this be some XP-specific bug?

I've attached the cygcheck for fourier, the broken XP machine -- if it 
would help, I can do the same for the working Win2K one on Tuesday for 
comparison.

Cheers, and keep up the good work!

Andrew.

Re: CygWin adding CRs, hurting CVS client/server communications?

2003-06-28 Thread Van Rooyen G-J [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I have exactly the same problem as Toscani describes. Last week I did a routine update 
on my Cygwin packages, and my Cygwin CVS client (which worked fine the previous day) 
could not authenticate with the server any more. The login command works fine, but 
any subsequent operations fail to authenticate. Furthermore, the server error message 
is garbled, as if a CR/LF problem occurred.
 
Client: Cygwin on WinXP
 
Server: Redhat (not sure of the version)
 
Authentication: Plain pserver, no SSH.
 
Judging from Patrick's response (who uses WinCVS, and not Cygwin CVS) the problem lies 
somewhere in the Cygwin CVS client, not in Cygwin SSH.

 You need to include the -X argument to ssh to forward X11 from the

The problem mentioned in your mailing list reference was fixed long time ago.

Hey folx...currently using OpenSSH under CygWin on an XP box to 
communicate with a CVS server on a Linux box. Recently upgraded my 
CygWin installation (1.3.22(0.78/3/2), including OpenSSH to v3.6.1p1 
(the latest available under CygWin), and now CVS client/server 
communications over SSH (CVS_RSH=ssh) don't work.
I've tracked the problem deep enough to suspect that SOMETHING in CygWin 
converts LF to CR+LF line terminators across SSH. This pretty much hoses 
CVS client/server communications, as the CVS server interprets all 
incoming lines as byte strings including a CR at the end (it treats LF 
as the actual terminator)...especially bad for pathname interpretation, 
but lots of other things may be affected as well. I've tried altering 
the CVS server code to eat the extra CRs, but too many other things 
break (including file data exchange I'd bet...can't tell which CRs are 
valid data and which are inserted by the system) for that to be effective.
Found a reference in the mailing list archives to a similar problem 
someone was having last October, but the solution was to install a 
snapshot from that time period which seems to be no longer available. 
I'm wondering if the fix for this issue never found its way into more 
recent versions of the CygWin system components? I've upgraded CVS on 
both client and server, but based on my testing, I don't think CVS 
itself is adding the CRs...please flame if I'm wrong on that one. g 
Not sure what else to do right now but do without version control for a

I've seen the same symptoms...output is garbled because CRs are left in 
the strings CVS interprets, and it spits them out after concatenating 
them...so you wind up with lines like textCRtextNL...I've dumped the 
output and confirmed that this is what is happening.

Another good point...I am using the CygWin CVS client, not WinCVS.

I have exactly the same problem as Toscani describes. Last week I did a 
routine update on my Cygwin packages, and my Cygwin CVS client (which 
worked fine the previous day) could not authenticate with the server any 
more. The login command works fine, but any subsequent operations fail 
to authenticate. Furthermore, the server error message is garbled, as if 
a CR/LF problem occurred.

Client: Cygwin on WinXP

Server: Redhat (not sure of the version)

Authentication: Plain pserver, no SSH.

Judging from Patrick's response (who uses WinCVS, and not Cygwin CVS) the 
problem lies somewhere in the Cygwin CVS client, not in Cygwin SSH.

No, you simply have to respect C++ namespaces. Try

std::cout  ...  std:endl;

or alternatively

#include iostream

Neither __getline nor __getdelim are exported by cygwin.din.

Re: Mail to cygwin generating subscription requests

2003-06-28 Thread Gerrit P. Haase

Hallo Igor,

 We have received your request to join the kde-nl
 group hosted by Yahoo! Groups, a free, easy-to-use community service.

[...]

 FWIW, I'm not getting these, but in theory, all it takes is one of those
 administrative addresses being subscribed to cygwin at cygwin dot com...
 Perhaps the subscriber list should be combed for those (don't know how
 easy or hard it is to do this, though).

The problem is this new virus, it sends out itself with various sender
addresses to every email address it finds.  Some of them come back to
me: 

Antigen for Exchange found your_details.zip-details.pif infected
with VIRUS= W32/Sobig-E (Sophos,Norman) worm. 
The message is currently Purged.  The message, Re: Application, was
sent from gh at familiehaase dot de and was discovered in SMTP Messages\Inbound
located at Texas Christian University/TCU/EXFRONT2.

Note that I never use this address and also I'm not infected with this
virus.  I got also this one today:

Though, I don't believe that cgf uses Outlook Express;)


I'm getting hundreds of them!  Sent by cgf at cygnus  or even by
you!  I'm also getting those info mails from mailing lists because the
virus found this subscription address and mine on one box it is
running on and sent a mail to the subscription address with me as the
sender, so the listserver thinks I want to subscribe and tells me how
to get help and so on.


It is annoying...

If $MS_path_filename is indeed a regular Windows filename (with
backslashes) you will need to either use quotemeta() or s!\\!/!g because
singular backslashes will be removed during interpolation.

my $foo = quotemeta($MS_path_filename);
chomp (my $cygpath = chomp `cygpath -u $foo`);
# now $cygpath should be usable

Here's a little thing I cooked up that I find very useful, I call it
dodos.  It lets you run any DOS/Windows program and call it with unix
arguments.  For example, you could type dodos notepad /etc/aliases or
dodos notepad /etc/hosts.* and you'd get what you expect.

#!/usr/bin/perl -w

my @newargs = $ARGV[0];

foreach my $arg (@ARGV[1..$#ARGV]) {
my $foo = quotemeta($arg);
$foo = `cygpath -wsa $foo 2/dev/null`;
chomp $foo;
push @newargs, $foo;
}

chomp (my $cygpath = `cygpath -u $foo`);

I sure wish you could just do something like `cygpath -u .
quotemeta($path)` or qr{cygpath -u quotemeta($path)} but neither of
these is valid, so you have to create a temp variable first.

[Soren A.:]
 I am trying to finish a test script that uses ActivePerl to call
 `cygpath` from itself (a system call, by open()-ing a pipe to capture
 the output of the tool ...
 
   {... stuff ...}
   open(CTH, '-|', C:/cygwin/bin/cygpath $MS_path_filename)
 or die Could not open() call to 'cygpath', what is up?;
   $cygstyle_path = CTH;
   chomp $cygstyle_path;
   {... stuff ...}
 
 If $MS_path_filename is indeed a regular Windows filename (with
 backslashes) you will need to either use quotemeta() or s!\\!/!g
 because singular backslashes will be removed during interpolation.

I know this. Already checked that what's being fed into `cygpath' is 
kosher.

I've spent 4+ hours debugging this script.

 Here's a little thing I cooked up that I find very useful, I call it
 dodos.  It lets you run any DOS/Windows program and call it with unix
 arguments.  For example, you could type dodos notepad /etc/aliases
 or dodos notepad /etc/hosts.* and you'd get what you expect.
 
 #!/usr/bin/perl -w
 
 my @newargs = $ARGV[0];
 
 foreach my $arg (@ARGV[1..$#ARGV]) {
 my $foo = quotemeta($arg);
 $foo = `cygpath -wsa $foo 2/dev/null`;
 chomp $foo;
 push @newargs, $foo;
 }
 
 exec @newargs;
 

Heh. Looks like a candidate for a Schwartzian Transform, or the Orcish 
Manuever, or something :-/. But good anyway. I'll add it to my toolset.

Sorry for the dup posting. Please follow-up to the other twin if possible.

Explanation: well, I seem to have more troubles posting to the List than 
normal people. I frequently work at several different machines setup in 
different ways at different places, and do my Cygwin conversations as I can 
(carpe diem). I recently had to subscribe via a new email account and my 
newsreader had to have settings changed to reflect that. I posted two or 
more articles yesterday that never showed up on the List, via Gmane, so for 
this message I decided to buy insurance in the form of posting-and-mailing. 
Again, apologies. I have no explanation for why it didn't work yesterday, I 
haven't changed anything between then and now (but maybe closed and then 
re-started Xnews, that could account for it).

ssmtp -t issues

2003-06-28 Thread Robert R Schneck

Hello, I'm using ssmtp 2.38.  I use Pine as my mail agent and ssmtp to
actually send the mail out.  Thus I use ssmtp -t (which searches through
the message headers to find all the recipients).

Two bugs:
 * The big one: ssmtp -t accidentally overwrites the headers so that the
To: line only has the first address on the line.  Basically it overwrites
each comma with a null as it searches for addresses on the line.  There's
a one-line fix, of course, just write the comma back in afterward.

 * ssmtp -t doesn't understand the syntax group-name: addresses;.
In particular it doesn't like when Pine creates a To: line with
undisclosed-recipients: ; when all addresses are in the Bcc:.

Also, I note that the README says
Known problems:
  Pine uses a lot of sophiticated options to talk to sendmail, and uses
batched SMTP input which is not supported. The solution is to use your
mailhub as smtpserver in pine.conf.

But in fact, setting the sendmail-path in Pine's config file to
/usr/sbin/ssmtp -t works fine.  (More usefully, it can be set to a
script which queues mail for ssmtp -t to look at later.)

Best,
Robert

I've seen the same symptoms...output is garbled because CRs are left 
in the strings CVS interprets, and it spits them out after 
concatenating them...so you wind up with lines like 
textCRtextNL...I've dumped the output and confirmed that this is 
what is happening.

Another good point...I am using the CygWin CVS client, not WinCVS.

I have exactly the same problem as Toscani describes. Last week I did 
a routine update on my Cygwin packages, and my Cygwin CVS client 
(which worked fine the previous day) could not authenticate with the 
server any more. The login command works fine, but any subsequent 
operations fail to authenticate. Furthermore, the server error 
message is garbled, as if a CR/LF problem occurred.

Client: Cygwin on WinXP

Server: Redhat (not sure of the version)

Authentication: Plain pserver, no SSH.

Judging from Patrick's response (who uses WinCVS, and not Cygwin CVS) 
the problem lies somewhere in the Cygwin CVS client, not in Cygwin SSH.

The problem mentioned in your mailing list reference was fixed long 
time ago.
Do your line endings change as well if you scp a textfile from your 
client to your server? If yes, then we have indeed an ssh issue on 
WinXP platforms. Otherwise your problem must lie somewhere else.

--- in response to: ---

Hey folx...currently using OpenSSH under CygWin on an XP box to 
communicate with a CVS server on a Linux box. Recently upgraded my 
CygWin installation (1.3.22(0.78/3/2), including OpenSSH to v3.6.1p1 
(the latest available under CygWin), and now CVS client/server 
communications over SSH (CVS_RSH=ssh) don't work.
I've tracked the problem deep enough to suspect that SOMETHING in 
CygWin converts LF to CR+LF line terminators across SSH. This pretty 
much hoses CVS client/server communications, as the CVS server 
interprets all incoming lines as byte strings including a CR at the 
end (it treats LF as the actual terminator)...especially bad for 
pathname interpretation, but lots of other things may be affected as 
well. I've tried altering the CVS server code to eat the extra CRs, 
but too many other things break (including file data exchange I'd 
bet...can't tell which CRs are valid data and which are inserted by 
the system) for that to be effective.
Found a reference in the mailing list archives to a similar problem 
someone was having last October, but the solution was to install a 
snapshot from that time period which seems to be no longer available. 
I'm wondering if the fix for this issue never found its way into more 
recent versions of the CygWin system components? I've upgraded CVS on 
both client and server, but based on my testing, I don't think CVS 
itself is adding the CRs...please flame if I'm wrong on that one. g 
Not sure what else to do right now but do without version control for 
a bit...any better ideas?

If you install the following registry entries, you get a context menu

able to save this as a .REG file and click on it to import the entries,
you'd have to change the path to perl though.

For some reason cygwin uses the wrong make tool on my (windows xp) system.

Cygwin calls the make tool of c builder and not the cygwin make.

How do I tell cygwin to use the cygwin make tool ?

Put the path to Cygwin's bin (e.g., C:\Cygwin\bin) in your system PATH
environment variable. If your starting Cygwin via cygwin.bat, set the path
there. On NT/2K/XP goto System in the control panel, and it's under

It's all in the order of your $PATH.  Typing which make will tell you
which one comes first.  I would think it should pick up GNU make first
since by default /etc/profile prepends /bin to the path, and /bin/make
is the cygwin/GNU make.

firewall going bezerk.

Yo,

Cygwin is constantly performing DNS lookup's

My zone alarm firewall is going nuts.

I think cygwin even turned my firewall off... the true vector engine.

Anyway I decided to turn the firewall off completely...

Cygwin is not the only app going nuts with dns... also windows xp is going
nuts with DNS.

I think it is because the way cygwin and windows works... like a quake
game... everythin goes via network code...

So cygwin is like a server giving service or something... windows xp is also
like a server ? funny.

But I don't think it s funny... I hate it... I want my internet connection
to only access the net when it is really needed.

I rather have windows xp and cygwin not be like a server etc... and just use
dll's and other forms of inter process communication etc...

Those are my wishes :P :D

:)

Hi,

So I am not sure if it is because my build went a little bit wrong or that
it is a problem with cygwin1.dll

It's probably a problem with cygwin1.dll

You have multiple copies of cygwin1.dll on your system.  The older version
of cygwin1.dll doesn't include asprintf.

Indeed, my system contains multiple cygwin1.dll's

It seems free pascal also has cygwin1.dll and it's also in my path variable.

When I look back at my journey :) I can only come to one conclusion and that
is that having all these different compilers/tools etc in my path has caused
nothing but trouble.

So I am going to do something about it ! :)

Now more big path's... but I am going to make batch's to set each
environment.

I normally don't use make and command line tools anyway... not even for
delphi.. which is my main tool :)

So having different batch files to set the path's shouldn't hurt :) no next
time things will hopefully go more something

Having 5 or 6 different make.exe's all in the same path is insane ! :D

Thx dude.

free pascal cross compiler from windows to linux working.

The free pascal 1.0.6 cross compiler host windows target linux is now
working.

I used cygwin, binutils-2.14 and free pascal.

( mingw unfortunately did not working: missing bison, flex, etc :) )

I tested a simple hello world program with knoppix ( linux running from
cd-rom ).

Then I also tested it with a red hat linux server.

The only problem seems to be that the hello world is denied access.

It says: permission denied...

That is probably easily solved with chmod.

I am just wondering if the free pascal compiler can set these permission
automatically for the linux executables.

( Is that the right term, linux executables ? :) )

So other weird red hat linux server behaviour... I have to use:  ./hello
( just hello does work on knoppix )

That's probably a red hat linux server setting... ./ means current folder...

Just wondering what that is all about.

I ll bet I'll also write a tutorial so others can do it.

Also with a little side note why I want it... many asked why not install
linux.

My short answer would be: 1. no space. 2. I read linux can destroy NTFS
partitions :)

Since I have windows xp ntfs and windows 98 fat32 paritions I don't want
that now do I :)

Later.

If you want changes to be persistent, look into either the Setx tool
or Pathman tool, both from the Windows resource kit.

http://www.microsoft.com/windows2000/techinfo/reskit/tools/existing/pathman-o.asp

http://www.microsoft.com/windows2000/techinfo/reskit/tools/existing/setx-o.asp

But, I wouldn't bother going to all that trouble.  Cygwin sets its path
in /etc/profile -- as long as /bin (aka /usr/bin) is ahead of $PATH
(which is Windows' path), Cygwin should be happy since it will always
find its version of things.  You can check this with echo $PATH from a
cygwin prompt, but /bin (and possibly /usr/sbin, /usr/local/bin, etc.)
should all be at the head of the list.

Why are you compiling bintools anyway?  There's a package you know...

 I was playing around with this because it seems like a handy idea.
 I use Cywin perl, but the differences shouldn't be very great.  Anyway,
 I came up with the following oneliner that does what you mention above
 (passed %1 as a Windows filename, it copies the Cygwin version to the
 clipboard)

 c:\cygwin\bin\perl.exe -MWin32::Clipboard -e my $f=quotemeta('%1'); chomp (my 
 $c=qx!cygpath -u $f!); Win32::Clipboard($c);

 If you install the following registry entries, you get a context menu
 for files and directories that runs this when selected.  You should be
 able to save this as a .REG file and click on it to import the entries,
 you'd have to change the path to perl though.

 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Directory\shell\CygPath]
 @=Copy Cygwin Path

 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Directory\shell\CygPath\Command]
 @=c:\\cygwin\\bin\\perl.exe -MWin32::Clipboard -e \my $f=quotemeta('%1'); chomp 
 (my $c=qx!cygpath -u $f!); Win32::Clipboard($c);\

Umm, guys, aren't we getting carried away here?  I mean, perl is a great
tool, but wouldn't something simpler, like

c:\cygwin\bin\bash -c echo -n `/bin/cygpath -u '%1'`  /dev/clipboard

suffice?
