OpenGL and cygwin
Hi all, I have been trying for the last few days to recreate some of the OpenGl problems that I have been asking the list about. Fortunately (or unfortunately, depending on one's perspective :)), I have been unable to get the errors reproduced in a standalone form, and in fact many of my OpenGL programs, even those that use more advanced features of OpenGL 1.3+, are working fine.

Cygwin-1.5.5 sscanf on floats: 20 times slower than 2 years ago
Hello. Until recently I was running W2k with an ancient version of cygwin; I don't know what version it was, but if anybody cares I've put a copy of cygwin1.dll (dated 2001-May-20) at http://www.cs.toronto.edu/~wayne/tmp/cygwin1-old.dll.gz It worked fine on W2k for the past 2.5 years. I recently upgraded to Windows XP and this old cygwin stopped working. No problem, I say, it's also time to upgrade cygwin, so I go install the most recent version. Everything works fine, except one of my I/O intensive simulations starts running about 20 times slower! After copious mucking about, I finally narrowed it down to sscanf: sscanf on double precisions numbers, such as double a; char line [80]; fgets(line...) sscanf(line, %lf, a); runs about 20 times slower than in the old cygwin. Replacing the sscanf with a call to atof gets back the old speed. It's only noticable, of course, if you're scanning a huge file. In my case, it's a 60MB file that contains tens of thousands of lines of ASCII floating point numbers. So, consider this a bug report. A slowdown of a factor of 20 is not really a good thing. The output of cygcheck -s -v -r cygcheck.out can be found at http://www.cs.toronto.edu/~wayne/tmp/cygcheck-XP-1.5.5.out.gz Thanks! - Wayne -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/

setup 2.418 - comments
1) Downloading the package list leaves text that doesn't get removed
during the MD5 check phase.
2) Resizing of window - I LOVE IT! :-)
WRT 2:
Resizing during the following download reveals a minor graphics
bug; look just *to the right* of the cygwin symbol { 'C-' in ascii
graphics) while resizing the window until the end of the text appears there.
From this point - slowly widen the window, while keeping an eye just
slightly above where the text appeared.
Some graphics appears at a certain width, at first sight looks like a copy
of the upper window border. I'm not sure it is though.
WRT 1:
It seems to me that the MD5 checking is done whether it is needed or
not. This is time consuming on a slow machine. May I *suggest* the
logic to be changed to something like this:
dl_date = get_date_of(local_package_maindir)
md5_date = get_date_of(MD5_LIST)
if ( !( md5_date dl_date ) )
do
for d in all_package_subdirs()
do
if (get_date_of(d) md5_date)
redo_MD5_check(d);
done
save(MD5_LIST)
done
CAVEAT: I haven't CHECKED this to be FULLY TRUE:
I've noted that running setup (2.416 at least!) with
$ cygstart -- /install/setup.exe --no-md5
appears to do a download of the correct packages without problems,
even though _NOT_ doing the MD5 check.

Exporting const variables from DLLs (GCC bug?)
Hi, Given this source code: extern const int meaning_of_life __declspec(dllexport); const int meaning_of_life __declspec(dllexport) = 42; GCC complains: $ c++ -g -O2 -c test.cxx -o test.o test.cxx:2: error: external linkage required for symbol 'const int meaning_of_life' because of 'dllexport' attribute. However, it compiles successfully with the const qualifier removed: extern int meaning_of_life __declspec(dllexport); int meaning_of_life __declspec(dllexport) = 42; Why does adding the const qualifier change this? Is this a known limitation of DLLs? If so, the error message is a little confusing. If not, then this is a GCC bug. Removing the explicit extern line has no effect in either case. My Cygwin installation was updated recently - I'm using the standard Cygwin GCC 3.3.1-3 package: $ c++ --version c++ (GCC) 3.3.1 (cygming special) If you want any more info, just ask. Incidentally, this bug affects src/sid/component/ in the Cygwin CVS tree. I'd prepared this minimal test case before I realized that this subdirectory isn't needed to build the Cygwin DLL. (Doh! CVS doing unexpected things strikes again).

That's strange. Which module is not found? Since you have
installed it, where is it? What is your @INC? You can see your
@INC with
perl -wle 'print for @INC'
With HTML::Parser it couldn't run gcc because it was not found.
Then you must install it. :-) Run setup.exe and install gcc.
How do you use CPAN under cygwin?
perldoc cpan
To fire up the cpan shell, just type, at the cygwin shell
cpan
Is there a web page that outlines how to configure CPAN for
cygwin, is that what is needed?
I found it to be quite straight forward. Please be specific and
tell where you run into problems.
Are others having problems and how did you fix them.
We'll take one thing at a time. I've used the cpan shell a lot,
but I need some more information about where you run into
problems.
I successfully install some and have force installed others and
notice that if you do a perldoc perllocal you only get the first
three modules listed, whereas if you do a more on the perllocal
file, you see a lot more listed. What's up with that, can anyonw
explain?
I have never used perldoc perllocal to see what modules I have
installed, so at this point I can't tell you what is wrong.

On unix, 'head' is the program that displays the first 'n' lines of a file, whereas 'HEAD' is a utility that's installed from LWP to do the HTTP HEAD command from the command line (there's also GET.) In unix, case is significant, so it's perfectly fine to have both HEAD and a head commands, but under Windows and thus Cygwin, case doesn't matter. So you have to skip the HEAD utility from LWP, or temporarily remove/rename the standard head command. I don't think this error should be fatal, and there should be an option or switch or something to prevent it from trying to install HEAD.

Google it.

Re: dircmp for cygwin?
I found the link below. It says that no, it's not a part of SuSE or BSD, and it's only legacy on UNIX. There is a 'dircmp' class in python that you could use, or else maybe you could come up with some magic using an rsync 'dry run'... http://www.webaugur.com/bibliotheca/standards/unix.html.php3 http://gnu.kookel.org/ftp/www.python.org/doc/current/lib/dircmp-objects.html Bobby McNulty Junior wrote: Google it.

Re: Perl CPAN module help
Gary Nielson [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:
I am getting somewhere. I used setup and installed needed
executables such as gcc. Did a force install in cpan for LWP
modules and it seemed to be go great. All tests were successful
in make test. But when running make install I got the error:
You shouldn't use force install unless you really know what
you're doing. If your module fails a regular install you should
investigate the problem and find the solution rather than do a
force install. With a force install you are likely to install
modules which fail some way on your system and hence shouldn't
have been installed.
Cannot forceunlink /usr/bin/HEAD: No such file or directory at
/usr/lib/perl5/5.8.0/File/Find.pm line 873.
make: *** [pure_site_install] Error 255
/usr/bin/make install -- NOT OK.
The Find.pm line in question is: { $wanted_callback-() }; #
protect against wild next
When installing LWP you are asked whether you want to install the
GET, HEAD, and POST programs. You have chosed yes or the force
install did it for you. Either way, it was discovered that HEAD
exists (as /usr/bin/head.exe) and Perl is trying to remove it, but
although which head says /usr/bin/HEAD, there really is no
/usr/bin/HEAD.exe, it's /usr/bin/head.exe. The problem is
that which matches case insensitively, but rm doesn't.
The solution is: Don't install CPAN modules under /usr, use
/usr/local! When you install modules without CPAN, use the
steps
perl Makefile.PL PREFIX=/usr/local
make
make test
make install
this is done with the CPAN shell by setting
cpan o conf makepl_arg PREFIX=/usr/local
cpan o conf commit
Any idea what is going wrong, or is the question better posed to
a perl forum?
The head vs HEAD is a Cygwin thing, so I think it belongs
equally well here.
