You're mixing cygwin includes with native windows includes.  That's not designed

VTK compiles / runs on:
- Nearly every Unix-based plateform (SGI, HP-UX, SUN ...)
- Windows 95/98/NT/2000/XP
- Tons of linux flavor
- Mac OS X
- *BSD
So I believe we have a rather clean approach. It's just the fact that 
defining INT32 globally without no namespace is rather dangerous, don't 
you think ? All I was asking, was just for a little barrier (since a 
barrier from XMD_H was already done).

Cygwin and PerlQt

2004-07-26 Thread Tomek Piatek
Hello,
I would like to know if there is any official effort to make PerlQt 
work under cygwin.

After trawling through many FAQs and mailing lists and spending hours 
trying to first compile it and then install binary packages I found on 
the net I am still no closer to getting PerlQt to work. I would really 
appreciate any info on this subject.

cheers,
tomek

Unable to change permissions on networked files, cygwin 1.5.11

2004-07-26 Thread Tim Hubberstey
Hi,

I'm experiencing problems with setting permissions on networked drives.
I have tried this on 2 different networks with the same results.

I have a network share from a Win2k machine with an assigned drive
letter (let's say F:). If I cd to a directory using
/cygdrive/f/some_directory and try to change the permissions on a file
using (for example):

chmod 755 some_file
  or
chmod 666 some_file

I get no error messages but the permissions do not change. This used to
work fine (a few months ago) and then, later, I started getting an
error message about being unable to change permissions but the
permissions WERE changed as expected (sorry, I don't remember the
Cygwin version). I have installed the latest snapshot but the problem
persists.

I didn't report this previously because I thought the network
administrator where I'm working may have done something to cause things
to break but I finally got around to setting up a simple 2-machine
network at home and confirmed that the problem exists there too.

Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong? Thanks.

Wish mine was. I find that

convert g0.dvi g0.jpg

still fails with the identical error message. What happens when you try this?

Maybe your fix is not quite general. (Or I am failing to implement it correctly.
There are two different magic.mgk files I could copy in the manner instructed

Use -Wl,--enable-runtime-pseudo-reloc for enabling auto-import of data variables.

Apparently I dropped a minor patch to ldmain.c which turns on the
--enable-runtime-pseudo-reloc by default.

Adding -Wl,--enable-runtime-pseudo-reloc to the command line should
fix this problem.

I guess this is a FAQ entry.  Do you see any other project on
sourceware.org which is using (shudder) wiki?  The point that seems to
be consistently missed here is that cygwin.com is not the sole consumer
of resources on the system where the domain resides.  Adding a service
like wiki would mean getting buy-in from people running the system over
at 'overseers'.  Once you get buy-in, you'd also need someone to install
the software and tweak the web server.  I'm not looking for new things
to support, personally.  I think I made that clear not too long ago
in another thread.  I don't think that Corinna would be thrilled about
maintaining wiki either.

Another point is that I don't want another official forum to police and
I doubt if Corinna wants to be scanning web pages looking for people
giving incorrect advice either.

So, the obstacles would be getting buy-in from overseers and finding
someone to police the pages.  Anyone is welcome to start a discussion
over at overseers at sourceware dot org, however.

Yes, I can.  I just compiled ([1]) the latest CVS cygwin0.dll (as of
today, 14:31 UTC), then tested with the new DLL ([2]).  I get the same
exact errors (including the stackdump).  Interestingly enough, I had other
unexplained exceptions with this test approach, so I'd appreciate if
anyone points out what's wrong with it.

the prompt, where "test" is a directory containing executables
binary-edited to use cygwin0.dll instead of cygwin1.dll, confirmed by
cygcheck.  Note that my build was configured with --enable-debugging.

I've read all man page and all related manpages.  The procmail manpage

I'm confident procmail is an excellent solution, but using the rate I'm 
getting, 30,000 messages that would translate into 17 hours of 
processing; given the span of a month, that leaves plenty of time to 
read all 30,000 of them. :-)  I'm wondering if whether the 2 
seconds/message average is normal, or indicates a problem with my setup.

As for testing on a Unix box, I'm in that category of Cygwin users who 
need to make something work in a Windows environment.  My question 
relates more to whether I should be disppointed or satisfied with the 
results.

Also, is procmail supposed to be called for each individual message?
Yes.
Thanks.

Code to use ctrl-break to get a java stack dump

2004-07-26 Thread Timothy Wall
Since cygwin will kill a subprocess if you hit ctrl-break manually, 
I've written a little utility that allows you to send ctrl-break 
directly to the java process from any other console on the same 
machine.

Note that if java is invoked directly from the shell, cygwin gets the 
ctrl-break and still kills java, but I usually run my java invocations 
from a makefile target, which somehow allows this to work.

e.g.
test:
if  /bin/true; then java -cp . MyClass; fi
make test
Then, from some other console:
./cbreak
Hopefully someone else will find this of use.  The process walking code 
was taken from some gnarly MS example;  I'm sure there's got to be a 
better way.  This probably only works on XP and later (haven't tried it 
elsewhere, but some of the system calls used are marked XP+ only).

With the new binutils I get these errors when compiling xorg-x11

switching back to binutils-20040312-1 solved this. 

I'm using a crosscompiled version of binutils-20040725-1 on linux

Well it seems that I managed to start "tinydns" and get some (correct
and very fast) answers!

Problem seems to be with chroot:
even if ROOT=/usr/tmp/tinydns/root it searched the file
/usr/tmp/tinydns/root/usr/tmp/tinydns/root/data.cdb
(thanks, SysInternal's FileMon!)
I created it, just to try, and it now correctly resolves and reply.

Still no answer from dnscache, though.
Seems not to query the filesystem in any way, not even to erad the
root/ip and root/servers files he needs to start (I tried the trick of
the "absolute-in-chroot-patch" as above, but to no avail... after all
it didn't even try to open them, as FileMon reports)

New autoimport errors after binutils upgrade

2004-07-26 Thread Johnny Willemsen
Hi,

I upgraded to the new binutils version and I now get autoimport errors as
below. We have had this problem already a long time with MinGW, there the
report is
https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=683455&group_id=2435&atid=1
02435. 

The code is visible at
http://cvs.doc.wustl.edu/cvsweb.cgi/ACE_wrappers/ace/Time_Value.h?rev=4.31&c
ontent-type=text/x-cvsweb-markup

The hack at the end of the file for MinGW is workable now for Cygwin also. 

It is a hard one to reproduce, it only happens in when the class is used in
nested templates. See the mingw report for more info

DJBDNS (and daemontools?)

2004-07-26 Thread Lapo Luchini
Has anyone managed to have them working on CygWin?
Yesterday I tried a bit, I managed to let it compile (I just added
"include " at the beginning of error.h), it starts, it
correctly bind the 53 UDP port (netstat says) but then it fails to reply
to any answer... Uhm!

Maybe it's because I launched dnscache "manually" and not using
daemontools, for which I have more serious problem to compile: even with
the same patch as above they stop in the tests. (well maybe just because
djbdns doesn't have any test =P)

I won't read my e-mail for the whole holydays, but if anyone had better
luck, please tell e so (so I can avoid duplicate the work).

I've changed the text in cygserver.conf to this:

# kern.ipc.shmmaxpgs: Maximum pages available for XSI shared memory.
# Changing shmmaxpgs immediately affects setting SHMMAX.  The relation

You are correct that those files explain how to set shmmaxpgs, and
I noticed that early on. The problem is that I wanted to set shmmax, NOT
shmmaxpgs per se, but it seems that the only place that spells out the relationship 
between the two parameters --- thereby suggesting the means to adjust shmmax ---
is in function shminit, which is rather deeply embedded in the source code tree:

Didn't you read /usr/share/doc/Cygwin/cygserver.README and in turn

  "kern.ipc.shmmaxpgs: Maximum pages available for XSI shared memory."

I thought that explains it.
