Hmmm, how does it work with external-source then?

Ah, I think I have to put the gcc-core package in its own subdirectory
because the directory name is taken as the package name, right?
Hmmm, I could also rename the gcc-cor-...src package back to gcc-

I did that a few minutes ago but then decided to just remove the binary
tar ball entirely since it isn't a requirement.  Yesterday, I thought
there had to be something there but I'd forgotten that the setup package
just consists of a source tarball so a binary tar file obviously isn't
required.

I'm just waiting for a response to the problem I had building it.  It

Re: package proposal update: suite3270

 Hi All!
 
 Due to popular suggestion (well, from Max and Chuck :), I've change the
 names of the packages comprising Paul Mattes's 3270 emulator suite.  All
 individual emulator packages have been prefixed with 'suite3270'.  This
 will help group the suite together in the package selection list.  This
 was a minor change to the build scripts and thus a new source package was
 created as well.  Perhaps now someone will review (and vote for) it
 (Please? Pretty Please!?).

Ok, we have three votes, so I felt, I could review the package a bit.

 Here are the setup.hint files:
 
 http://www.fruitbat.org/Cygwin/suite3270/setup.hint.suite3270

The requires line uses the wrong package names.  The leading suite3270-
is missing.  Besides that, if the base package already requires to
download all other packages, the split would be unneeded.  Did you
actually intend that?

 http://www.fruitbat.org/Cygwin/suite3270/setup.hint.suite3270-common
 http://www.fruitbat.org/Cygwin/suite3270/setup.hint.suite3270-c3270

 http://www.fruitbat.org/Cygwin/suite3270/setup.hint.suite3270-x3270

The other setup files are ok, AFAICS.  I'm just wondering what the base
package is good for.  All packages require the -common package, but none
requires the base package.

 Here are the source and binary packages:
 
 http://www.fruitbat.org/Cygwin/suite3270/suite3270-3.2.20-1-src.tar.bz2
 http://www.fruitbat.org/Cygwin/suite3270/suite3270-3.2.20-1.tar.bz2
 http://www.fruitbat.org/Cygwin/suite3270/suite3270-common-3.2.20-1.tar.bz2
 http://www.fruitbat.org/Cygwin/suite3270/suite3270-c3270-3.2.20-1.tar.bz2

 http://www.fruitbat.org/Cygwin/suite3270/suite3270-x3270-3.2.20-1.tar.bz2

I really don't see what the suite3270-common package is good for.  Couldn't
that be better thrown together with suite3270?  Both packages are really small
and I don't see any gain in having a base and a common package.

Besides that, the documentation is in all packages still in /usr/doc. 
Please move it to /usr/share/doc.

Another nit concerning the documentation.  Each package creates its own
documentation subdirectory right below /usr/doc.  So after installing
all packages, you have

  /usr/doc/suite3270-3.2.20  --  empty!
  /usr/doc/suite3270-common-3.2.20   --  empty!
  /usr/doc/c3270-3.2.20/
  /usr/doc/pr3287-3.2.20/
  etc.

I would prefer to keep all documentation in one subdirectory

  /usr/share/doc/suite3270-...

and all the above subdirectories below that, instead of polluting the
doc directory itself with so many subdirs for one base package.

I would also prefer to have only one common README file under
/usr/share/doc/Cygwin.  Basically all these READMEs are the same, with
just tiny differences.  Why not just one file which describes the
whole suite?

Otherwise the packaging looks ok to me.

[ITP] tclcl - Ready for review [Need help on linking to Tcl]

[Harold L Hunt II]

Original from http://otcl-tclcl.sourceforge.net/tclcl/

Description
===
TclCL (Tcl with classes) is a Tcl/C++ interface used by Mash, vic, vat, 
rtp_play, ns, and nam. It provides a layer of C++ glue over OTcl.

Questions/Notes for Cygwin developers
=
1) I had to build tclcl as a static library because it tries to link to 
Tcl_CreateFileHandler and Tcl_DeleteFileHandler.  Linking to a shared 
version of Tcl reports that these are unresolved symbols.  This seems to 
be a long-standing issue for Cygwin and it doesn't seem fixable.

2) There are Win32-compatible work-arounds in the code to avoid using 
Tcl_*FileHandler, but I have not reviewed the work-arounds thoroughly 
enough to determine if they will actually work with Cygwin.

3) I would appreciate any help here... just a note saying yes, those 
functions still do not exist and will not exist in the future would be 
sufficient.  I always hate Googling for hours to find the status of 
something, making a release based on what I found, then finding out that 
my research was flawed. :)

Changes from original ITP
=
1) Ripped out broken Makefile.in build system and replaced with automake
files.
2) Modernized autoconf usage.

3) Ripped out hand-crufted code for shared libraries and replaced it
with libtoolized build.
Remember, the goal here is to get NS (the network simulator) working and 
packaged for Cygwin.

   While thinking about this a while more, I recognized that there

   Are there any other requests or hints about the design ?
 
  I've roughed stuff out here before, I think. Anywhere, here goes a quick
  brain dump.
 
 I need more time to think about what you have written and how to
 start with which class,

I have take some time to inspect how it could be go and have build a
testcase to see what kind of api is needed. Please note that I am
concentrated only to get a command line version initial running, so I've
removed the not needed gui stuff.  Currently I can't send in a patch for
this, because I have splitted the relating engine files into subdir and
build a static library to allow file including checks, although the binariy
and sources could be downloaded  here:

binary http://kde-cygwin.sf.net/snapshots/enginetest-0.0.1.exe.
source http://kde-cygwin.sf.net/snapshots/setup_new-0.0.1.tar.bz2

I have done the following steps to get a compiled exe.

cd .../setup_new
mkdir debug
cd debug
../configure CXX=g++ -mno-cygwin CC=gcc -mno-cywin
cd engine
make

This will build the library and the enginetest applications, which has some
basic functionality like:

enginetest-0.0.1.exe --query --all  - list all installed packages
enginetest-0.0.1.exe --query --list packagename   - list all files of the

  Hi All!
 
  Due to popular suggestion (well, from Max and Chuck :), I've change the
  names of the packages comprising Paul Mattes's 3270 emulator suite.  All
  individual emulator packages have been prefixed with 'suite3270'.  This
  will help group the suite together in the package selection list.  This
  was a minor change to the build scripts and thus a new source package was
  created as well.  Perhaps now someone will review (and vote for) it
  (Please? Pretty Please!?).

 Ok, we have three votes, so I felt, I could review the package a bit.

A review!!  Someone (Corinna) actually reviewed it!!  Thank you!!

  Here are the setup.hint files:
 
  http://www.fruitbat.org/Cygwin/suite3270/setup.hint.suite3270

 The requires line uses the wrong package names.  The leading suite3270-
 is missing.  Besides that, if the base package already requires to
 download all other packages, the split would be unneeded.  Did you
 actually intend that?

Ok, I knew there would be some confusion concerning this.  Here's the
rational: The package suite3270 is actually a super-package (Hmmm...
Ssssuper-Package, I like the way that sounds :) which contains the
source for all of the emulators and provides a convenient way of
installing all products without having to hunt them all down individually
and selecting them (ie: the entire suite of emulators).  Admittedly,
I'd changed the package names to prefix with 'suite3270-' to group them
togther, to make them easier to find, but perhaps that wasn't a good idea
after all.  You can install each product independent of each other.

So, why isn't the source for each product with each package, you ask?
Because it came as a bundle from the source web site that way, and Paul
keeps them all in sync, so I was trying to preserve that thought by
keeping the source in one place, yet having each product's binary package
separate.

So, why the -common package, you ask?  As I said, each product is
independent of each other.  However, they all (except pr3287) install
some common files, which, if you installed the individually would overlay
each other, and upon removal of one package would remove those common
files for all.  So, the build process moves those files which are
identical (common) into a separate package which is prereq'ed by each
package.  It seemed like a good idea at the time.

  http://www.fruitbat.org/Cygwin/suite3270/setup.hint.suite3270-common
  http://www.fruitbat.org/Cygwin/suite3270/setup.hint.suite3270-c3270
  http://www.fruitbat.org/Cygwin/suite3270/setup.hint.suite3270-pr3287
  http://www.fruitbat.org/Cygwin/suite3270/setup.hint.suite3270-s3270
  http://www.fruitbat.org/Cygwin/suite3270/setup.hint.suite3270-tcl3270
  http://www.fruitbat.org/Cygwin/suite3270/setup.hint.suite3270-x3270

 The other setup files are ok, AFAICS.  I'm just wondering what the base
 package is good for.  All packages require the -common package, but none
 requires the base package.

Well, the super-package is just a container for the source and a way of
getting all packages installed at one shot.  The build is actually kinda
turn-key, where you run the top-level script and it in turn runs the
scripts to build each product.

  Here are the source and binary packages:
 
  http://www.fruitbat.org/Cygwin/suite3270/suite3270-3.2.20-1-src.tar.bz2
  http://www.fruitbat.org/Cygwin/suite3270/suite3270-3.2.20-1.tar.bz2

  http://www.fruitbat.org/Cygwin/suite3270/suite3270-x3270-3.2.20-1.tar.bz2

 I really don't see what the suite3270-common package is good for.  Couldn't
 that be better thrown together with suite3270?  Both packages are really small
 and I don't see any gain in having a base and a common package.

See above.

 Besides that, the documentation is in all packages still in /usr/doc.
 Please move it to /usr/share/doc.

Ok, that I can do.  I'd submitted this way back before the new share/doc
requirements had been instantiated and I haven't updated it yet :).  I'll
do so.

 Another nit concerning the documentation.  Each package creates its own
 documentation subdirectory right below /usr/doc.  So after installing
 all packages, you have

   /usr/doc/suite3270-3.2.20  --  empty!
   /usr/doc/suite3270-common-3.2.20   --  empty!
   /usr/doc/c3270-3.2.20/
   /usr/doc/pr3287-3.2.20/
   etc.

(*sigh*) ... and correct the directory names, but this is starting to get
out of hand.  I'm starting to think that naming the packages with a
prefix was a bad idea.  Perhaps having them grouped together by name

  Okay, this does indeed give us a resizeable chooser -- yuppee!!!  The

  Once this gets accepted, it would be relatively easy to make most other

 Rob, BTW, when this patch gets accepted, I have an idea on how to modify

Font and .bat files missing when installing XFree86 only?

[Hans Dekker]

Hi all,

Having downloaded a version of XFree86, I see a difference between a 
previous version and this one:

- When installing de XFree86 option only, no fonts are installed. I had 
to install (= copy) font files from a previous version and that worked. 
Am I missing something?

- Also, some useful .bat files of which startxwin.bat is one, are 
missing from the current installation. Even when installing the complete 
package wouldn't help. Why was that?

I downloaded the 1.5.5-1 version from different locations and installed 
it on WinXP.

Regards, Hans.

Xwin -clipboard = Xlib: connection refused, no protocol specifi ed

[Pille Geert (bizvdm)]

Hallo H.,

When I start Xwin with the clipboard option, Xwin can be used with
DISPLAY=2.1.12.24:0.0  (ie. on the IP-address of my PC).  But the inbuilt
clipboard seems to ignore this, and tries to contact 127.0.0.1:0.0 in vain.

I tried setting DISPLAY before launching Xwin, but no use.

xwinclip does not have that problem.

Is there any way to tell the clipboard which DISPLAY to use?

My complete commandline for starting Xwin

XWin +kb -xkbmap be -auth $HOME/.Xauthority -emulate3buttons -unixkill
-nowinkill -rootless -clipboard


Bedankt!

Skip it the right way and it is not ignored. But you have to take care of the 
defined dependencies. I.e if you skip Apache but select later on a package that is 
dependent, then Apache is in again. Unfortunately the dependencies are only 
respected regarding selection and not unselection.

You need the XFree86-fnts package at a minimum.  I am surprised that 
this was not automatically selected.  Are you sure that you selected 
XFree86-base?  That package lists XFree86-fnts as a dependency, so it

You have to pick the XFree86-startup-scripts package.

You are correct, the 127.0.0.1 is hard-coded.  Perhaps we should try 
loading the DISPLAY environment variable and using that instead, but 
that is not currently a feature in the code.  It could essentially be 
copied and pasted from xwinclip into the relevant portion of

 on the HEAD branch trying to build it and using -D selector.

You mean to tell me that the problem doesn't happen in the XFree86-*
packages that I released?  I thought that was what had the problem.  I
didn't realize you were building from CVS... I didn't realize anyone was
doing that.  In any case, I think you know more about the problem that I
do now.  However, there have been updates to the XFree86 CVS that should
have been applied but were not, thus the public breakup that happened
earlier this week.  I am working on getting a tree setup at
freedesktop.org, so perhaps we can start debugging this better when that
tree is setup.

Thanks for looking into this,

Re: fonts too small on remote clients

[Harold L Hunt II]

Andrew,

You need to use the -dpi 100 parameter for XWin.exe.  It is not enough 
to change the order of the fonts in the font path, you have to actually 
tell it to use the 100 dpi fonts by default.

I think this will work in your case, but I could be mistaken.

Hi,

I didn't realize anyone was doing that.

Yep some of us are still using CVS + various patches and customisations and
bodges (no pain no gain!).
My xc tree (XFree latest as of yesterday + patches) is as close as I thing
the game is and is still doing the job for me! (e.g. I've even patched for
new 'shared' rootless and haven't even used/tested it!).

Keep up the good work...I'll try to build/test new trees as they materialise

platforms)

 this is a limitation of the winsock?  It could be that I'm just making a

It's just not defined in asm/socket.h.  I've always interpreted the _IOW as
a read/write, not just as write.  Now, looking into it again, I see that
using _IOW for the SIOCGIF* control codes was just wrong from the beginning.
They should have been _IOR.  Too bad.  But we can't change that now, since
that would break existing applications.

I'm wondering if we should redefine them, though, and mark the old
values as deprecated, using them in Cygwin only for backward compatibility. 
The new values could easily start from 4.  I'll guess we'll never get
the problem to be out of values...

 Don't bother.  Is it a value which could be changed in Cygwin or Winsock?
 
 I don't know, I guess I'll just make it 108 and see what happens.  The 
 group code seems to be arbitrary as well, so I'll just stick with the 
 flow and use `i'.

i?  What i?

 What are you trying to implement?  I'm really curious.

Cool.

 (Gee, a 
 copy of unix network programming 2nd edition would come in handy right 
 about now)

I can recommend it.  It's really good, IMHO just missing info about
using the resolver routines.

   Not to rant, but 
 our network sockets seems lacking in a few areas, so I hope to 
 contribute there.

Sure they do.  You're welcome to contribute in that area.

[PATCH] Fix debugger attach for threads

[Thomas Pfaff]

This patch allows a debugger to attach when an exception occurs in a 
thread other than the mainthread.

I am not happy about the wait in handle_exceptions, but it works on my 
machine. I think that a waitloop until the debugger is attached is 
cleaner, but there must be a reason why the debbugging loop is 
implemented this way.

It seems to me that the missing CRLF is not the only source of the problem.
I receive a similar stackdump on XP Home, but only when I use the user

When I use root, ssh works fine.
I´ll go deeper into the differences, but up till now it seem that the ssh

I´ll come back to you later.

Script ssh-host-config works for me, but when I've entered the CYGWIN env

Thus CYGWIN key in the registry has now ntser\x08c instead of ntsec!
This is caused by the read command!

 Objet : Testers for new ssh-*-config scripts wanted!
 
 Hi,
 
 is anybody here willing to give my new ssh-host-config and 
 ssh-user-config shell scripts a thorough test?  I tested them 
 by myself but I have this nagging feeling I missed something 
 important.
 
 The important changes:
 
 - On NT, try to set permissions on files and directories to a 
 useful value.
 - On NT, try to set ownership on files and directories to a 
 useful value.
 
 Only in ssh-host-config:
 
 - Write the /etc/services entries for ssh now with CRLF lineendings.
 - Remove the code to accomplish old style installations, with old
   being older than roughly 3 years.
 - /etc/ssh_config and /etc/sshd_config are not hardcoded here-scripts
   in the ssh-host-config script anymore, but they are copied and
   modified from ssh_config and sshd_config files in /etc/defaults/etc.
   This allows to accomodate changes in the vanilla scripts without
   having to change the shh-host-config script.
 - On NT, always set ownership of various files to SYSTEM, if sshd
   has been installed as service.
 
 Both scripts are attached.  When testing the new copy config 
 files from /etc/defaults/etc functionality, please think of 
 copying the ssh_config and sshd_config files (if possible the 
 vanilla versions) to /etc/defaults/etc first.
 
 Feedback and patches welcome and thanks in advance, Corinna

Re: gcc and iostream

Hallo y2bismil,

Am Donnerstag, 30. Oktober 2003 um 22:28 schriebst du:

 I'm having a linking problem with GCC and iostream.  I'm not sure if it has
 anything to do with cygwin, so I'll check here.

 I am using

 Its a pretty large project.  First, all the sources and compiled into object

 -lstdc++ as a paramter.  Yet, I always seem to get iostream errors like:

 : undefined reference to `ostream::operator(char const*)
 : undefined reference to `_cin'

 My compile line is:

-LC:\cygwin\lib\mingw
-Wl,--start-group
-lwsock32
-lstdc++

Put the libraries to the end of the linkline:

-mno-cygwin  -g -o$(_Target)
-Wl,--start-group
files needed to be linked
-LC:\cygwin\lib\mingw
-lwsock32

ACLs are not handled correctly

[Dierk Schmedes]

Hi,

first my config: MS Windows XP SP1, cygwin 1.5.5 (actual version - 2 days old)

Problem: nearly each tool that the create or modify a file/directory (e.g. cp,
touch, setfacl) ignore the ALCs of the current directory or add further 
users/groups to it.

Example
/home/dierk has the following ACLs (listed with xcalcs.exe from the MS
resource
kit; same with Explorer)

xcalcs F:/cygwin/home/dierk
f:\cygwin\home\dierk domainname\dierk:F
 NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM:(OI)(CI)(IO)R

Now I create a new file (e.g. touch /home/dierk/newfile). Everyone expect that
the file has the same rights as my home folder /home/dierk, BUT that isn't -
see
below:

xcacls F:/cygwin/home/dierk/newfile
f:\cygwin\home\dierk\newfile domainname\dierk:(special access:)
 STANDARD_RIGHTS_ALL
 DELETE
 READ_CONTROL
 WRITE_DAC
 WRITE_OWNER
 SYNCHRONIZE
 STANDARD_RIGHTS_REQUIRED
 FILE_GENERIC_READ
 FILE_GENERIC_WRITE
 FILE_READ_DATA
 FILE_WRITE_DATA
 FILE_APPEND_DATA
 FILE_READ_EA
 FILE_WRITE_EA
 FILE_READ_ATTRIBUTES
 FILE_WRITE_ATTRIBUTES

domainname\Domain Users:(special access:)   
READ_CONTROL
 FILE_READ_EA
 FILE_READ_ATTRIBUTES

 Everyone:(special access:)
   READ_CONTROL
   FILE_READ_EA
   FILE_READ_ATTRIBUTES

 As you can see the ACLs are completly different to the one of my home folder.

Similar behaviour when I use setfacl, it adds automatically the last two (
domainname\Domain Users and Everyone) to the ACL even I don't want it.

This has strange impacts if ntsec is set for CYGWIN because you may have
than
no access to your own files.

 Dierk

Re: launch shell script from windows explorer

[Brian Dessent]

Hans Horn wrote:
 
 Dear cygwinners,

As long as we're not cyglosers...

 after searching the archives w/o luck, I'd ask this mailing list.
 
 I'd like to know how I would go about the following:
 
 I'd like to launch a shell script from within windows explorer (either
 double-click or via context menu) in a way that:
  - a console (or rxvt window, preferrably) is opened in the folder where the
 script resides
  - the script is executed
  - the cnsole stay open after the script has finished
 
 So far I have managed only the first bit (console/rxvt) + script execution,
 but the console closes immediately when the script is done.

I don't know if there's a better way to do this, but you might be able
to achieve the desired effect by adding an explict call to the shell
after the script... for example, the windows command line might resemble

\cygwin\bin\bash -lc . somescript.sh  bash -i

This results in two copies of bash being used, but I don't see a way
around that.  If you want the prompt to appear even if the script fails
then change '' to ';'.  If you don't want it to start in your home
directory (and you don't care about variables like the path being
initialized for you, and the rest of /etc/profile) then omit the -l
parameter which tells it to be a login shell.  If you want it to not
start in your home directory but still want the path set correctly, then
you'll have to come up with a workaround.  One way might be something
like:

\cygwin\bin\bash -c . ~/set-path.sh  . ~/somescript.sh  bash -i

Where set-path.sh is like /etc/profile except without the final cd
$HOME, and somescript.sh is the thing you want to actually run.

I think others on this list have suggested cleaner ways around this
problem of needing the path setup but not wanting to start in $HOME, so
you might try searching the archives.

Re: rsync to between workgroups

[Vince Hoffman]

[snip lots of relevant info]

 I've tried using CYGWIN=ntsec and CYGWIN=nontsec.  Doesn't seem to make
 a difference.


When you say you have tried CYGWIN=ntsec and CYGWIN=nontsec
do you mean as a system or user variable ?
also have you tried setting it to  CYGWIN=nontsec using the -e switch to
cygrunsrv ? (ie in the services environment)
(I have it workingt fine between 2 standalone servers, files just inherit
the containing folders permissions)
I'm assuming files created through explorer have correct permissions.


 Each time I run the rsync, I end up with permissions like CREATOR OWNER
 (ALL), CREATOR GROUP(RX), WebAdmin Special Access(RWXD), EVERYONE Read
 (RX), USERS Special Access(RX).   These are not the permissions that
 existed before the rsync.  I want the permissions to stay the same.

Yeah, but that's not a fault of the script but of the shell.  Nothing
I can do about in the script.  Except if I require the script to run
under bash instead of sh, to allow readline support.

Would that be acceptable?  I have attached a new version of ssh-host-config
to this mail, which requires bash now.  If that's not ok, it's easy to
revert again.

I've also attached the two vanilla files ssh_config and sshd_config to
put into /etc/defaults/etc. This should simplify testing.

Changed in this version of ssh-host-config:

- Require bash.
- Remove annoying backslashes when echoing a bang (!).
- Allow /var/log/lastlog to be a directory (But that can again create
  problems with permissions, Pierre!)

Please don't forget to test ssh-user-config, too.  Thanks.

  xcalcs F:/cygwin/home/dierk

  Now I create a new file (e.g. touch /home/dierk/newfile). Everyone expect that
  the file has the same rights as my home folder /home/dierk, [...]
 
 Why? Cygwin doesn't support ACLs and inheritance - including Windows
 ACLs. And cp or touch don't either - umask is the thing they
 ask.

Cygwin does support ACLs, but only in a POSIX sense. Plus a funny (but
incomplete if it comes to inheritance) implementation of Solaris ACLs.
Cygwin is not Windows but POSIX on top of Windows.

 Yes, it works. However there must be something new in 1.5 that causes

Whatever, I can't test it.

 I tried your new script, and ssh did not crash. I thought that was great

There was once a great story in the Reader's Digest I think of some
prisoner somewhere who decided that it'd be nice to have a new library
in the prison.  So he started writing lawmakers and telling them that
he wanted a new library for the prison.  Every day he mailed a couple
of dozen hand written letters.  For three of four years they were
ignored.  Then eventually he started getting VERY nasty responses
telling him to bug off.  Some even called the warden to get him to
stop, but civil libertarians soon took interest in this and threatened
to sue on his behalf if his mail was censured.  Finally everyone was
eventually worn down and around year ten, the legislature voted to fund
the construction of his library - allocating close to TWO MILLION
DOLLARS for the effort.

You can buy books.  You can donate money.  You can't cause a problem to
be solved just by incessantly complaining about it.

If this technique was uniformly useful then we'd have peace in the
Middle East and my son would have a telephone in his room.

Is gcc-core-3.3.1-3.tar.bz2 corrupted?

[John Daniel Doucette]

Hi,

If I test gcc-core-3.3.1-3.tar.bz2 I get the error:

gcc-core-3.3.1-3.tar.bz2: bad magic number (file not created by bzip2)
You can use the `bzip2recover' program to attempt to recover
data from undamaged sections of corrupted files.
I downloaded it twice from mirrors.rcn.net and once from mirrors.kernel.org 
with the same results. Setup doesn't have any problem with the MD5 sum.

My bzip2 reports:

bzip2, a block-sorting file compressor.  Version 1.0.2, 30-Dec-2001.

Is this error expected? Is my bzip2 too old to recognize some new bzip2 format?

This shows that it is actually a gzipped file.  Setup knows
what to do with both bzip2 and gzip formats, without relying
on the extension being right.

It is actually a gzipped empty tar file - the new gcc-core binary
package (which is in the Misc group) seems to be a placeholder

 Yeah, but that's not a fault of the script but of the shell.  
 Nothing I can do about in the script.  Except if I require 
 the script to run under bash instead of sh, to allow readline support.
 
 Would that be acceptable?  I have attached a new version of 
 ssh-host-config to this mail, which requires bash now.  If 
 that's not ok, it's easy to revert again.
 
 I've also attached the two vanilla files ssh_config and 
 sshd_config to put into /etc/defaults/etc. This should 
 simplify testing.
 
 Changed in this version of ssh-host-config:
 
 - Require bash.
 - Remove annoying backslashes when echoing a bang (!).
 - Allow /var/log/lastlog to be a directory (But that can again create
   problems with permissions, Pierre!)
 
 Please don't forget to test ssh-user-config, too.  Thanks.

I'm sure that there any cygwin developer would gratefully accept

it certainly isn't a requirement by any stretch of the imagination.  I
do occasionally suggest a Red Hat support contract for someone who is
clamoring for a bug fix, though.

I have been half-seriously asking for someone to send me a 64 bit Athlon

 Do you think to use STLport with the Cygwin/MinGW compiler would
 increase perfomance?

 [snip]

 What is the way to test that?
 In other words, is there STLporting with the Cygwin/MinGW compiler?

I posted a Makefile to build a Cygwin version of STLport with DLL's and
static archives:  http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2003-06/msg00790.html

If it shows up that using STLport instead of libstdc++ templates
increases the speed of the code running, maybe someone volunteers to
maintain an STLport package for Cygwin?

RE: cygwin deadlocks due to lack of money

[kevin.lawton]

cgf, 
You expect cygwin NOT to run on an Athlon 64 system ?   How so ?   Under what 
operating system ? 
Under 32-bit Windoze, nothing seems any different - you're not planning a Linux 
version of cygwin, are you ?

Hi All...

What a relief...I thought that Cygwin had the PBS virus (doesn't do any

I'm sure that there any cygwin developer would gratefully accept
(without even any thoughtful consideration) a token of appreciation but
it certainly isn't a requirement by any stretch of the imagination.  I
do occasionally suggest a Red Hat support contract for someone who is
clamoring for a bug fix, though.

I have been half-seriously asking for someone to send me a 64 bit Athlon
or Opteron system so that I could investigate getting cygwin running
there.  But, while I wistfully watch the UPS guy drive by my house every
day, he never seems to stop to drop off a big package at my door.

And, don't get me started (again) on my laptop embroglio...

irc: No identd (auth) response

I'm trying to get irc to work, but I keep getting the following:

*** Connecting to port 6667 of server irc.freenode.net
*** Looking up your hostname...
*** Checking ident

This is on the most recent Cygwin with inetutils installed, running on

AFAIK there's no ident daemon in inetutils. You can try

I don't think it makes any difference, but make sure the 113

Re: gcc and iostream - final issue

[y2bismil]

Okay all,

I think I've narrowed down the issue to a conflict with mingw.  This is mingw
installed via cygwin setup not the stand alone version.

In general then, anyone know what the exact issues are regarding mingw and
cygwin.  I've googled, and come across a few things.  I've tried the option
-nodefaultlibs
, but then I got an insane amount of link errors, as I did not know ALL the libs
to include.  

Anyone have any ideas on what params/path to pass to g++ on both compiling and
linking stages?

Thanks,

Yamin

Re: Mount Confusion -- the tallest pique in the world? ;-)

[Igor Pechtchanski]

On Thu, 30 Oct 2003, Lee D. Rothstein wrote:

 Either Cygwin or I be confused. (I'm betting on I. ;-))

Bingo.

 I have deleted '/tmp' ('d:/Cygwin/tmp' -- using Explorer)
 and issued: 'umount /tmp' and 'mount 'e:\tmp /tmp' repeatedly.
 ^^
Umm, why?  Once should have been enough.

 All the other mounts to '/' appear in an 'ls' of '/',
 but '/tmp' ('e:/tmp'), does not.

What other mounts to /?  / itself is a mount, but under it everything
should be either a real or virtual (/proc, /dev) directory.

 While the apps seem to find 'e:/tmp', should I be worried?

No.  Mounts can be associated with non-existing directories, and will work
just fine.  If you want tab completion, you can simply mkdir
/cygdrive/d/Cygwin/tmp -- it will then show up in ls / and allow tab
completion, e.g., /tm[Tab].  BTW, unless you repeat this trick with
/proc and /dev, they won't show up in ls / either.

 Prior to my doing any of the above (w/ Cygwin root at
 'c:/_Programs/Cygwin'), I've had recurring instances of something
 (apps?, 'setup.exe?, what?) creating 'tmp' and more frequently 'var' on
 both my 'c:' and 'e:' drives. This problem seems to have subsided since
 I moved the Cygwin root directory from 'c:/_Programs/Cygwin' to
 D:/Cygwin'.

I'd bet you were installing as one user and running as another.

 Also, after I moved Cygwin, despite changing all the references in the
 profile and Windows environment variables, *and* reinstalling the whole
 of Cygwin, Cygwin insisted on looking at the C/_Programs... : root
 rather than the D:/Cygwin... directory

 Anybody know what's causing this?

Stale user mounts?  Your /, /usr/bin and /usr/lib mounts appear to
be user mounts.  You should probably remount them as system (i.e.,
'mount -f -s -b d:/Cygwin /', 'mount -f -s -b d:/Cygwin/bin /usr/bin',
'mount -f -s -b d:/Cygwin/lib /usr/lib', and 'umount -U').

Also, your system cygdrive prefix is marked textmode; you should change
it to binmode to avoid spurious errors (by 'mount -s -b -c /').  It's
not very safe to have it set to '/' anyway...

 Note that at the end of the attached 'cycheck -shv', there is
 the following error message:

 cygcheck: dump_sysinfo: GetVolumeInformation() failed: 1

 which seems to be coincidental when it checks the 'a:/' floppy drive.

This is expected.

 Thanks,
 Lee

Oh, and another small thing:

cls = `() {  cmd /c cls
}'

Why not install the clear package and 'function cls() { clear }'? ;-)

RE: cygwin deadlocks due to lack of money

[kevin.lawton]

Okay, I spent some time looking at the mailing list archives but found nothing which 
added anything to this discussion. I would have hoped that my intended offer of use of 
an Athlon 64 system would have counted as more than just 'idle curiosity' and, anyway, 
I'm never 'idle'. 
Quite honestly, I wondered what 64-bit op system you were hoping to test on. As I 
said: it all seems to be okay running Win-32 on an AMD-64, and I've not seen 64-bit 
Windoze around yet. 
I would be surprised if you were planning on a Linux version of cygwin for obvious 
reasons, and AFAIK BeOS, PetrOS, Lindows, Plan9, etc, etc, haven't got 64-bit versions 
out yet. 
Anyway, you've made your point: why should you spend a minute or so telling me 
something you already know when, with one simple put-down, you can suggest I go search 
through archives for an hour ?  Fine ! Nice attitude, mate ! 
BTW My plan was to either test for you (under direction) or make the machine available 
to you via some sort of terminal server and my ADSL connection. I didn't fancy having 
it transported. I did actually want to contribute something to the cygwin project, as 
I've found it so valuable over the past couple of years. Shame you weren't interested. 
Bye.

I interpreted your response as nonserious since you seemed to be
humorously suggesting that we'd be working on a version of cygwin for
linux, which is obviously nonsensical.  I thought it was self evident
that I was talking about getting cygwin working on a 64 bit version of
windows and didn't seriously think that you were suggesting that we were
thinking about getting cygwin working on some other system.  I guess
I was wrong.

BTW My plan was to either test for you (under direction) or make the

to contribute something to the cygwin project, as I've found it so
valuable over the past couple of years.  Shame you weren't interested.

Actually, while I appreciate that you wanted to contribute something,
I'm not interested in either scenario.  The effort of working on cygwin
remotely either by having someone else do testing (especially when the
someone doesn't really know cygwin internals) or by logging in over
the internet was not what I was looking for.  Having a system sitting
in my office that I could hack on when the mood hit me was more of what
I was looking for.

I wasn't seriously suggesting that anyone was going to send me a 64-bit
system, either.

Here's the kind of google search term I would have used to find
discussion:

64-bit windows cygwin site:cygwin.com cgf

This was my first tray and it unearths some discussion as the first hit.
I'm sure that there are search refinements possible but, to answer your
aggrieved question, all of the discussions basically revolve around
someone reporting that cygwin doesn't work right in some beta or release
candidate version of windows for 64 bit platforms and my suggesting that
the problem won't be solved until I (or Corinna or Pierre) have a 64 bit
system to hack on.

Re: gcc and iostream - final issue

[y2bismil]

Hi Brian,

I did try all the items mentioned, and none have helped so far.  The error
states that I can get it into are:

1.  use full std:: qualifier in which case it cries at compile time about cout
not being in namespace std

2.  It complains at link time that cout is an undefined reference.  Still
without the std::

Just to address all issues in a list:

1.  Putting libraries at the end has not helped
2.  I'm using g++ only now in both compile and link stages...Just out of
curiousity though, isn't gcc supposed to 'call' g++ internally based on the file
extension?
3.  In terms of cygwin handling C:\ type paths.  It always seem to be able to,
but I will try to fully qualify them with /cygdrive/c/...

Just to clarify.  I'm using G++, but the code makes some use of the conio
functions which need then be linked with the mingw libraries.  I figured that
should only inlcude the mingw headers/libraries (including the stdc++ one),
instead of the one provided in the other g++ dirs.  Hence the use the attempted
uses of -nocygwin and -nostdinc++.

exact compilation line (bare in mind, its been through several iterations):

Re: launch shell script from windows explorer

[Hans Horn]

Brian,

thx a lot for helping out here!

I ended up producing the following .reg script that adds the context menu
item Run script to files with extersion .sh.

When clicked, it opens an rxvt console in the path of the .sh file and
executes the .sh file.

cheerio,
Hans

  Dear cygwinners,

 As long as we're not cyglosers...

  after searching the archives w/o luck, I'd ask this mailing list.
 
  I'd like to know how I would go about the following:
 
  I'd like to launch a shell script from within windows explorer (either
  double-click or via context menu) in a way that:
   - a console (or rxvt window, preferrably) is opened in the folder where
the
  script resides
   - the script is executed
   - the cnsole stay open after the script has finished
 
  So far I have managed only the first bit (console/rxvt) + script
execution,
  but the console closes immediately when the script is done.

 I don't know if there's a better way to do this, but you might be able
 to achieve the desired effect by adding an explict call to the shell
 after the script... for example, the windows command line might resemble

 \cygwin\bin\bash -lc . somescript.sh  bash -i

 This results in two copies of bash being used, but I don't see a way
 around that.  If you want the prompt to appear even if the script fails
 then change '' to ';'.  If you don't want it to start in your home
 directory (and you don't care about variables like the path being
 initialized for you, and the rest of /etc/profile) then omit the -l
 parameter which tells it to be a login shell.  If you want it to not
 start in your home directory but still want the path set correctly, then
 you'll have to come up with a workaround.  One way might be something
 like:

 \cygwin\bin\bash -c . ~/set-path.sh  . ~/somescript.sh  bash -i

 Where set-path.sh is like /etc/profile except without the final cd
 $HOME, and somescript.sh is the thing you want to actually run.

 I think others on this list have suggested cleaner ways around this
 problem of needing the path setup but not wanting to start in $HOME, so
 you might try searching the archives.

Re: Segmentation Fault of ssh3.7.1 with cygwin1.5.5-1 in W95.

news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]: 

 I have been using cygwin 1.3.22 in a W95 machine with no problems.
 I am now installing cygwin 1.5.5 in another W95 machine. I get the

 bash-2.05b$ ssh -l rmedina pion
 Segmentation fault (core dumped)

My further tests showed up that my ssh crash had a different cause:

I´ve two users, root and ssh. ssh is the owner for the sshd that I run.

When I call ssh localhost from each of the two users, it works fine.
But when I do a su to switch to the other user, the ssh call crashes.
When I use login to change to the other user, everythings works fine.

So this seems to be a su issue. I read somewhere that su is no longer 
supported. Is this still true?

Hope this may help for further development!

Re: gcc and iostream - resolved

[y2bismil]

Hi all,

I got it resolved by doing the following:

1.  Used dos style names because (I don't think this was needed, but clearcase
paths...were not setup under the cygwin environment, so I just used the windows cmd.

2.  Only included SysHdrPath +=C:/cygwin/usr/include/mingw as the system path

3.  DID NOT USE -nostdinc++ in both compile/link
4.  used -mno-cygwin in both compile/link
5.  DID NOT USE -nodefaultlibs in link
6.  still linked with  -lwsock32 -lstdc++ -lgcc, but I think only lwsock32 is
needed.  But this is good enough for now.

In short, I think I ended up messing myself over. 
Thanks,


Yamin

Re: gcc and iostream - final issue

 1.  Putting libraries at the end has not helped

You must always do this.  This is the way linkers work.

 2.  I'm using g++ only now in both compile and link stages...Just out of
 curiousity though, isn't gcc supposed to 'call' g++ internally based on
 the file extension?

I believe it does when compiling with the -c switch.  But, for linking,
you must use g++ as there is no file extension to base this on (.o).

 3.  In terms of cygwin handling C:\ type paths.  It always seem to be able to,
 but I will try to fully qualify them with /cygdrive/c/...

Cygwin emulates Posix.  Posix does not understand C:\.  So, Cygwin's gcc
doesn't/shouldn't understand C:\.

 Just to clarify.  I'm using G++, but the code makes some use of the conio
 functions which need then be linked with the mingw libraries.  I figured that
 should only inlcude the mingw headers/libraries (including the stdc++ one),
 instead of the one provided in the other g++ dirs.  Hence the use the
 attempted uses of -nocygwin and -nostdinc++.

Just -mno-cygwin is sufficient.

 exact compilation line (bare in mind, its been through several iterations):
 ***
 HdrPath
 +=$(BLDVOL)\Allegro\RP306\RomPager\Includes;$(BLDVOL)\Allegro\RP306\Engine\Includes;.\hdr

I don't know what kind of a make system you are using, but I don't
recognize any of that syntax.

 SysHdrPath +=C:\cygwin\usr\include\mingw;
 SysHdrPath +=C:\cygwin\usr\include\mingw\g++-3;
 SysHdrPath +=C:\cygwin\usr\include\mingw\sys

None of this is needed with -mno-cygwin and should not be used.

 g++
  -c
 $(CC_FLAGS_386) $(CC_DBG_FLAG_386) $(CC_OPT_PCH) #bunch of -D..flags
 -D$(CC_DEFS_386,W -D)
 -I$(HdrPath:;= -I)

 -nostdinc++
 -isystem$(SysHdrPath:;= -isystem)

Don't do either of these.

 $(.SOURCE)
 ***

 Linking (using clearcase make...so the %foreach turns out correctly)
 ***

Ok, I don't know anything about how clearcase works.

 g++
-mno-cygwin  -g -o$(_Target)
-nostdinc++

Again, don't use -nostdinc++.

#-nodefaultlibs
-L/cygdrive/c/cygwin/lib/mingw

Or this -L.

-Wl,--start-group
%foreach Link in $(LinkFiles)
$(LinksPath)\$(Link)
%end
-L/cygdrive/c/cygwin/lib/mingw

Again, don't use this -L.

-lwsock32

-lstdc++
-lgcc

Don't use either of these.  g++ will handle them for you.

-Wl,--end-group
-Wl,-L/cygdrive/c/cygwin/lib/mingw

Not this -L either.

What I/we really wanted to see is the EXACT command line as it appears on
the console, and the output g++ sends to the console.  NOT you clearcase
make stuff.

It is impossible to guess how clearcase, etc. gets from here to there.

Cygwin, Telnet, XP, and starting applications...

[mark young]

After checking the archives and google, I found one reference from three
years ago related to my question, so I figured I'd give the mailing list 
a shot.

I have a remote system, with cygwin and XP pro, on which I can't run 
vnc or remote desktop.  I'd like to be able to telnet in and start an
opengl program that runs on the remote box.  when I do, using inetd
running as a service, and telneting in, the app (opengl, or even notepad)
doesn't appear.

The one reference I found noted  that this was by design as a security
precaution for NT.  Then someone told me about a telnet server from a 
company named goodtech that could do it...and indeed, they were right.

the problem is that it (for whatever reason) drops characters when I'm
in emacs-mode in bash.   the cygwin version seems better for me, except
for the restriction regarding starting apps.

so...the question is: is there a way to configure XP to work around
this problem?

Re: OpenGL and Cygwin

Hi Brian, Andre, cygwin folks,
   Thanks for all your help to date. I have been somewhat lax in replying
since I am sitting at my laptop in India with a slow connection. Here is
the situation:
As per Andre's suggestion, I wanted to force linking via the windows gl
headers, and so I just moved the /usr/include/GL/* headers out of the
way, and am using the headers from /usr/include/w32api/GL
My g++ command line is

g++ -mno-cygwin  -lglut32 -lglu32 -lopengl32

and a cygcheck on my exe file indicated that the glut file being linked
is my local copy that I got from nvidia,
Can you tell us why you are using GLUT from NVDIA instead of GLUT from 
Cygwin's OpenGL package?

and the glu,opengl32 libs are
the dll files linked from c/windows/system32
As I mentioned, all of opengl1.1 works fine. In an attempt to get
histograms, I enabled GL_VERSION_1.2 (I may have the spelling wrong here,
but I used the correct #define). However, the way the windows gl files
are structured, if the _WIN32 option is defined, the GL_VERSION_1_2
option is ignored (i.e the GL_VERSION stuff is only included inside a
#ifndef _WIN32 bracket).
Instead, I enabled GL_GLEXT_PROTOTYPES and that seemed to let the
compilation go thru ok. However, at the link phase, I got stuck, with an
error message of the form
undefined reference to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

the @2 suggesting that at least I am using the right include files.
OpenGL 1.2 and up functions have to be loaded dynamically on the Windows 
platform, whether you are using Cygwin or not. Your code cannot simply call 
glGetMinmax; your code needs to load that function first. No fancy linking 
option or library or dll, from NVDIA or someone else, can avoid that.

This is a common problem for OpenGL programmers on the Windows platform, 
and it is not related to Cygwin. I suggest that you look in some OpenGL 
forum to learn how to do that, such as:
http://www.opengl.org/discussion_boards/cgi_directory/forumdisplay.cgi?action=topicsnumber=2start=here

If dynamic loading sounds to much trouble, I suggest that you look at 
extgl, a library that makes programming OpenGL 1.2+ applications on the 
Windows platform easier:

http://www.levp.de/3d/


Now, i have been poking around with the nvidia opengl libs: the one I
have doesn't appear to be the right kind though: (nvoglnt.dll) - I
couldn't link it using -lnvoglnt (ld crashed)
You cannot link with that dll.


This is my current state. I am trying to download the new nvidia drivers
that were released Oct 23, but it is taking some time given my slow
connection

Cygwin cvs hang when used with PuTTY plink

I'm trying to use plink (release version 0.53b) and pageant along with

... here the DOS window appears to hang. However if I now type echo 
hello, after pressing ^C I get the following lines ...

D:\devecho hello
hello
If I use Cygwin ssh in place of plink this hang does not occur.
Also, Eclipse's CVS appears to work correctly with either plink or 
Cygwin ssh.

Hard to know if this is PuTTY, Cygwin, or something else. Thanks for any 
insight!

John.

Opening Files In Excel Word On 2000

[steve]

Hi;

I've made some scripts that enable me to open Word  Excel from bash on 
Win 2000.

The problem is I can't get either app to open the file I type on the 
command line with the name of my script :).

Does anyone have scripts for opening files with Word and/or Excel from 
the command line?

Thanks in advance

Steve

This may not apply, (sorry haven't been following thread) but in case you
didn't know...

the START command under Windows will open a file according to its extension.
E.g.

start xyz.xls -- opens xyz.xls in Excel
start xyz.doc -- opens xyz.doc in Word
start xyz.htm -- opens xyz.htm in Internet Explorer (or whichever browser is
registered...)

Re: How to back-rev cygwin?

[Christopher Faylor]

Please check out the project web page for links to available information
and ports:  http://cygwin.com/ .

If you don't see what you need there, then the cygwin mailing list is
the best place to make observations or get questions answered.
Information on the mailing list is available at the project web page.

For your convenience, I've reset the Reply-To: address to point to the
cygwin mailing list.  I've also Cc'ed this reply there.

Hi, Chris ...
 
Looked for this in the faqs and mailing lists, and didn't find
anything.  Could you help?

I downloaded cygwin 1.5.5, and my xscale g++ now faults during
compilation.  It may be a latent bug in the tool that's exposed by the
1.5.5 dlls.  At Andrew Pinski's suggestion, I tried to move forward to
the latest stable version of the compiler, but having spent more than 8
hours attempting to configure and build it, I have to give up on that
approach (at my manager's insistance).

I'd like to back-rev to cygwin 1.3.13 (the version with which the
xscale compiler worked); can you give me a url that would have it?  I
tried the mirrors, but there's nothing around that time.

Thanks for any help,
Doug

RE: cygwin deadlocks due to broken select() when writing to pipes

[Brian Kelly]

 and my son would have a telephone in his room.

Do you have a cordless phone? - Then your son has *already* had a phone
in his room!

 If this technique was uniformly useful then we'd have peace in the
Middle  East

Persistence has to be uniform, consistent, morally obvious, concretely
defined and *limited* in it's objectives. *Peace* in the Middle East
demanded by those engaging in non-peaceful tactics violates all of the
above. Some of my tactics violate some of the above tenets. I
admittedly am not consistent nor sufficiently limited in my objectives
...

I suppose this makes me simply an irritant ( and off-topic )

I'll stop now.

Thanks for all you HAVE done ;-)

Performance measurement data: find

[Linda W.]

Performance comparison , # system calls in Explorer find vs. gnu

find under
cygwin. Search for foobar.txt in directory /tmp (under cygwin), C:\tmp 
(under explorer).

   # system calls
Explorer: 15
Cyg-gnu:  211
file monitor filter set to only record strings that access /tmp.

Actual call data at end of this message.

Yes, you can belittle the results and say cygwin is helpless in the face 
of a
native find enginebut cyg-find seems to be doing some rather peculiar
things...like  the first 4 calls open up something other than the simple 
name I
told it to search for.  Sure, if the simple name files, maybe look for 
other
names, but I'm not so sure about  the varient paths. 

But then it takes a total of 67 calls to get to examining the first entry
in /tmp in cyg-find...there is a ton of syscall repetition.  Maybe even
caching in-memory call data just for the current timeslice (.01-.02 seconds)
would speed things up tremendously.  I'm not sure what the security impact
would be on a multi-CPU machine, but it I'd think it would be doable to
keep a coherent cache on a multiple CPU system -- though I dunno.   
Might take
a cygwin driver to become part of OS that could play cyg-win-call-NT call
traffic cop. 

I wish I knew NT coding ... it's 90% a mental block though
because it's seems like it torture to do things on NT that seem so straight
forward on linux/unix. 

So don't think I don't have alot of respect for the
work that's been done. 

I just wish I had about 20 clones of myself to do
all the projects in so many areas I want to see things done in -- but I 
can't
even handle 1 right now with my RSI injuries that the insurance 
companies are
refusing medical treatment on (in hopes I'll go away, shrivel up and/or 
die...:-)).
Ug...so back logged even on bills/ sorting insurance/ legal docs/ (no 
attorney
competant to take case given 12% max-allowed-legal recoup in CA).
Major pain in the posterior.
