The menus and everything else would work as expected. Now I see just a window but the menu doesn't even show up. Worse, once I run gnome-terminal, I cannot kill it and XWin hangs trying to fork new xterm from the XWin menu. I have to use the Windows task manager to kill all the XWin stuff and then restart XWin again. IOW, after gnome-terminal is up and hung, if I right click the X to start more xterms, they don't show up and ps -ef in cygwin shows one XWin process for every time I try to start a new local xterm. At this point in time, I'd just like to find somebody that is using a gnome-terminal in cygwin so I can tell if it's my environment or if the problem is the package itself.

Re: select() too slow
Yes! I've confirmed that!
With TCP_NODELAY Cygwin and Linux times are similar.
It seems that there is some issue with the Naggle algorithm on
Windows for sure.
Thanks

between 4 and 5 seconds.
Sending a 17 Megs file from Linux to an echo_server on Cygwin takes
about 55 seconds. However, when I disable the Nagle algorithm in the
echo_server, it takes between 2 and 9 seconds. I don't understand the
unexact interval, but I also don't see how that could be Cygwin's
fault.

Fatal error from bash under 20060313 snapshots
Recently I have posted (see 'Problems with...') problems with the snapshots 20060314, 20060315 and 20060318. In those posts I said that the snapshots 20060313 worked fine. I was in error!

Creating a custom Cygwin package server
The documentation here: http://sourceware.org/cygwin-apps/package-server.html suggests it might be possible to set up a custom Cygwin package server to install a custom app, but it also says the necessary tools are not available. Is it possible to do this? Is there another approach that is more highly recommended for distribution of a custom app? (one too specific to warrant inclusion in the main archive.) Norton Allen p.s.

Re: fopen with UTF-8 chars in filenames

It's in stdio.h that gets installed as part of the Cygwin install. No, actually it's in stdio.h that's part of MinGW (and is installed as part of Cygwin only because Cygwin's gcc has a built-in MinGW cross-compiler). Just in case anyone out there is still interested in the actual question... :) The Right Way to do this (open a file whose name is given in UTF-8), or as close to a Right Way as you can get under the circumstances, is to use iconv() to convert the file name to the local multibyte character set, and then use plain fopen() on that. In iconv_open(), use utf-8 for the source character set, and an empty string for the target character set. (This isn't 100% portable; the Posix standard doesn't specify the character set names that can be used in iconv_open(). Every implementation understands utf-8, but some use char instead of to mean the local multibyte character set, whatever that happens to be.) If your file name contains characters that can't be represented in the local MBCS, you're out of luck. Cygwin only supports multibyte file names (not Cygwin's fault, it's a Posix limitation); to use the full Unicode character set in a file name you have no choice but to fall back on the Windows API. (You can use both the Windows and Cygwin APIs in the same program, that doesn't cause any problems, other than to portability.) Technically the above procedure also contains a race condition, since it's theoretically possible for the native multibyte character set to change (via the system's locale settings) between the calls to iconv() and fopen(). Again, this is a problem in the Posix API and can't be portably worked around. If you don't care about portability and just want something that works with Cygwin, you might as well just use the Windows API. -- 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/
