Re: gbs cleanup patch, 2nd try
Great. Have you tested whether the -e flag gets propagated inside the
functions?
Yes, I have now:
$ /bin/sh -e ; echo finished /bin/sh -e, status=$?
$ echo $-
eims
$ # the -e flag propagates into subshells:
$ tst1() { echo $- ; }
$ tst1
eims
$ # false result inside a function causes subshell and
$ # main shell to immediately exit:
$ tst2() { false ; echo continuing execution ; }
$ tst2
finished /bin/sh -e, status=1
Sorry, the above is wrong:
$ /bin/sh -e ; echo finished /bin/sh -e, status=$?
$ ( echo $- )
ehimBH
$ ( false ; echo continuing execution )
$ echo $?
1
So -e is effective in the subshell, but when it returns its false status it
doesn't cause its parent shell to exit. I now see in the manual that this is
because a subshell isn't a simple command.
So I will have to rethink how best to handle a false return status of a
subshell.
tetex 2.99.1.20041026 prerelease
teTeX 2.99.1 can be considered something of a release candidate. I've made considerable efforts to make teTeX 3.0 [cross] build out of the box for Cygwin, many thanks to Thomas Esser and Olaf Weber. This release has major changes since 2.0.2, so I do not think it's wise to put this in the test distribution yet. You may give it some testing by pointing setup to http://lilypond.org/cygwin/ or just download it from there. There's a known issue with texconfig that needs the xdvi/XDvi app configuration file, that's duplicated in tetex-bin for now, but texconfig is planned to get a rewrite before 3.0. Please report any non-Cygwin problems with this release to the tetex-pretest list. Enjoy, Jan. -- Jan Nieuwenhuizen [EMAIL PROTECTED] | GNU LilyPond - The music typesetter http://www.xs4all.nl/~jantien | http://www.lilypond.org

Re: gbs cleanup patch, 2nd try
Sorry, the above is wrong: Sorry again, but please disregard my previous message. I was confused because I was testing some features of /bin/sh -e on Debian. On Debian /bin/sh invokes bash, while on Cygwin it runs ash. It turns out that these two handle subshells with -e differently: Cygwin: $ /bin/sh -e ; echo finished /bin/sh -e, status=$? $ ( false ; echo continuing ) finished /bin/sh -e, status=1 $ Debian: $ /bin/sh -e ; echo finished /bin/sh -e, status=$? $ ( false ; echo continuing ) $ In both cases, the subshell exits as soon as one of its commands returns false. But in Cygwin, the parent shell exits too; in Debian, it doesn't. It was the Debian behavior that I reported earlier. My mistake. The Cygwin behavior above is consistent with the ash man page. It also means that all of the 's in the generic-build-script are definitely not needed. With /bin/sh -e, as soon as any command in a subshell returns false, the subshell and parent shell exit. That's the purpose of the 's, so they can go. I tested this behavior by inserting some failing commands into some of the gbs functions, and running the script. With /bin/sh -e at the top, it halted at the first false result. So the patch I posted yesterday is still correct. Andrew.

That would work on NT, but then one would need to check if the input
path didn't already have the form //./xx, worry about exceeding max
pathlength, etc... The patch cleanly handles all of that, is symmetrical
to file creation, and is very efficient. I cleaned it up a little and
tested readonly hard links and other weird cases.
It's good to go but I still wouldn't include it in 1.5.12 if it's
coming out this weekend.

Other than being able to delete special filenames is there any other benefit to using NtCreateFile to delete files? If path length was an issue we could use '//?/' instead since the length restriction is a lot larger there. So, it would be something like: char *path; char newpath[strlen (win32_name) + 4] = ?\; if (win32_name[0] != '\\') path = strcat (newpath, win32_name); else path = win32_name; and then you'd use path throughout from then on. We could use a technique like this for other things, like rename, to enable it to manipulate accidentally-created special files. OTOH, I just had an idea about how to use //?/ on NT so that we could have longer path names. I have to mull it over a little to see if it would work or not, though. I have an airplane trip tomorrow that would be perfect for this kind of mulling. cgf

11-csw-cygwin-wrapper-with-no-deplibs.patch
Sometimes, a wrapper script is generated for an executable that, itself, does not link against an uninstalled library. It appears that this can happen if you are building a project where (1) there is a library (2) there is an executable that does not, itself, link against that library In this case, notinst_deplibs is empty, and when the wrapper script is loaded by libtool during ./libtool mode=install, there is a check for is notinst_deplibs empty. In this case, it is, so libtool reports an error. I don't think it is wrong to have a wrapper script for an exe that *technically* doesn't need it. But instead of checking for notinst_deplib nonempty as a proxy for did wrapper script get sourced into my environment properly a different var should be used.

bug in perldoc (escape characters in output)
Hello, The perl documentation viewed using the perldoc commands has escape characters inserted into it. The same pages view with the man command are OK. I think this is cygwin specific, so I am posting it here. Thanks. __ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!

CPAN module in Cygwin
Hello,
The CPAN command:
perl -MCPAN -e shell
fails with:
Cannot open /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.5/CPAN/Config.pm at
/usr/lib/perl5/5.8.5/CPAN.pm line 1219
CPAN::Config::_configpmtest('/usr/lib/perl5/5.8.5/CPAN',

CPAN::Config::load('CPAN::Config') called at
/usr/lib/perl5/5.8.5/CPAN.pm line 92
CPAN::shell() called at -e line 1
It looks like it is trying to write to a file owned by
Administrator. Is there a workaround to install
modules as a user?
TIA.

Re: ssh expect on Cygwin
anurag shukla shuklaan at gmail.com writes:
I am having a tyical problem with expect.
Since passwordless authentication is broken on many cygwin systems I use, I end
up using the following expect script (more frequently that I would like). By
populating the user and passwd arrays for various hosts, this script can be used
to access arbitrary remote hosts.
--- remoteLogin ---
#!/usr/bin/expect -f
set user(myHostName) Administrator
set passwd(myHostName) mySecretPassword
log_user 0
set timeout -1
set host [file tail $::argv0]
if {[llength $argv] == 0} {
spawn ssh $user($host)@$host
} else {
spawn ssh $user($host)@$host [join [lrange $argv 0 end]]
}
match_max 10
expect {
-re ssh: connect to host .* port 22: Connection refused {
send_user Connection to port 22 on $host refused.\n
exp_exit 1
}
-re ssh: connect to host .* port 22: Connection timed out {
send_user Connection attempt to port 22 on $host timed out.\n
exp_exit 1
}
-exact Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)? {
send yes\r
exp_continue
}
-exact password: { send -- $passwd($host)\r }
}
expect \r # eat the RETURN after entering the password
if {[llength $argv] == 0} { # interactive
expect {
-glob Connection to * closed. {
send_user Connection to $host has spontaneously closed.\n
exp_exit 1
}
-exact Permission denied, please try again. {
send_user Password not accepted.\n
exp_exit 1
}
-exact \r ;# continue if error not encountered
}
log_user 1
expect -re (\\$|\)
interact { \004 { close; wait; exit } }
} else { # non-interactive
log_user 1
expect eof
}

ZoneAlarm hates email-2.3.0-2
I've been using the new email package to upload my digital photos to my yahoo email account (what else can you do with a 2GB limit?), but it's really slow. Looking in the task manager I see that when I'm using email (email -s description -b -a filename.jpg [EMAIL PROTECTED]) the vsmon process takes my CPU usage upto 100%. vsmon is the firewall process for ZoneAlarm. Strange. When I email the photo's using outlook express it doesn't behave like that. I've tweaked every setting I can think of in ZonaAlarm to try to improve the performance (like adding my SMTP server as a trusted host and lowering my security) but I've not managed to alter the behaviour at all. Has anyone experienced similar problems? Can anyone hazard a guess as to what ZoneAlarm's problem is? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
