Re: Installing Perl modules with perl -MCPAN -e shell; fails with 02packages.details.txt.gz does not contain a Line-Count header
Stephan, I don't recall -- did you attach the output of cygcheck -svr at some point (if so, just point to it in the archives, no need to repost)? My guess is that this may be a textmode vs. binmode issue. Try making your home directory a binmode mount, or setting PERLIO=crlf and see if that helps with CPAN. Igor Actually I think this advice is the wrong way around. Before running CPAN, I think you should unset PERLIO if you otherwise have it set. I set PERLIO=crlf by default because my perl scripts heavily interact with DOS programs. If I run CPAN directly I have problems. But CPAN works fine once I unset PERLIO I run it like this: unset PERLIO; perl -MCAPN FYI - my home directory is a binmode mount.

Whoops, never mind. It's a bug, pure and simple. According to
http://refspecs.freestandards.org/LSB_2.0.0/LSB-generic/LSB-generic/libutil-getopt-3.html,
two colons after a character indicate an *optional* argument, and for a
required argument one needs to use only one colon. The only change needed
is that opts[] needs to only have one colon after K.

what is ping reponse timeout mean?
dear cygwin user: after I connect to aol, I get aol's ip, then I went to www.network-tools.com to use its trace and ping to check this address, the result of ping say time out. the result of trace at last 4 parts always response timeout except one time I change my XP home ed window security (firewall setting) (I can not remembered which), it success report to host name with that ip without timeout. first, what is timeout mean for both ping and trace? and second, should I change my xp's window firewall setting so It won't have timeout. -- and can it finally let outsider see my website's test page by typing that aol assigned public? highly appreciate your help, and thanks in advance eric http://Game.37.com/ --- Free Games http://newJoke.com/ --- J O K E S ! ! !

RE: precompiled header status
From: Hans Horn Sent: Monday, 24 January 2005 8:02 AM what is the current status of precompiled headers under cygwin? The last post I read about this was http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2004-10/msg01318.html - then silence! I have updated this for gcc mainline (now 4.1) and submitted the patch http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2005-02/msg01765.html today. If it is accepted, I will see if I can get it into gcc-4.0, although it may now be too late for 4.0.0 David NOTICE This e-mail and any attachments are private and confidential and may contain privileged information.

Re: cygcheck -l or -c broken in snapshots

possible bug in g++ variable alignment
When compiling (using g++) and running the following program:
/* start program example */
#include iostream
unsigned char t[1] __attribute__((aligned(16)));
using namespace std;
int main()
{
static unsigned char s[1] __attribute__((aligned(16))) ;
cout s = ((int) s[0]) % 16 endl;
return 0;
}
/* end program example */
I get the result:
s = 8
when I would expect (as I get under Linux)
s = 0
I know that g++ is dependent on ld which limits its maximum
alignment, but under Cygwin, it/they only print/s warnings for
alignments which are 16.
Note that all is OK if you don't try to also align the global
variable t.
Also note that if s is not declared static, this doesn't even
work under Linux for me (perhaps with a slightly changed program,
with larger alignment moduli). However, I see no documentation
that automatic variables cannot be aligned using this construct.
