Re: Disable recycle bin for rm command
Urban Purkat urban.purkat at topit.si writes: Hi! I see that the rm command uses the recycle bin to remove files. On What's new and what changed in Cygwin 1.7 - File Access related changes (http://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/ov-new1.7.html#ov-new1.7-file) I read unlink(2) and rmdir(2) try very hard to remove files/directories even if they are currently accessed or locked. This is done by utilizing the hidden recycle bin directories and marking the files for deletion. I was testing this functionality on Win2k8 and figured out that rm uses recycle bin even the recycle bin is disabled for specific partition. Such behavior does not fit the restrictions I have on my system. Is there any way to disable this recycle bin functionality so the rm works like before this change? It would also be a nice feature that Cygwin respects the Recycle bin settings in case it is disabled. I was checking the FAQ and mailing list archives and I could not find the answer. TIA, Urban I was not able to find a way to disable the cygwin's own recycle.bin and understand when exactly it gets populated. I'd really like an option to disable the recycle.bin at all. In the mean time I'm trying to disable the directory creation all together, ie: touch \*RECYCLE.BIN\* Will keep an eye if it actually helps or breaks things:) Thanks, Alec -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
Re: It's a setup issue = Re: 1.7.6-1: mount -p and mount --show-cygdrive-prefix broken in latest release
Hi Brian, On Sat, Aug 21, 2010 at 10:53 PM, Brian Kelly reedf...@ix.netcom.com wrote: Ok - so I did a re-install and mount -p is back. But a setup bug (probably not setup.exe's fault) was discovered in the process. I first tried a re-install and once again was told cygwin1.dll could not be replaced because of a running process (thought I had killed everything). Rather than quit and start over, I pressed the continue button and re-booted the laptop when the re-install completed. mount -p was STILL broken, so something sure was amiss. Turned out I had cygserver and postgres via cygserver running. (Forgot about them). With Process Explorer from Sysinternals, it is possible to search for open files/n-use DLLs. It shows the process which keeps the file in use. These services start automatically (along with sshd) when Windows starts up. *ALSO* I have an XWin Server in the Startup folder of the Windows Start Menu. So apparently, one of these services is starting up *BEFORE* the cygwin1.dll can be replaced by Windows at startup. I find that hard to believe; after-reboot file replacing happens before any processes are created.

Nothing is wrong. set lists more than just environment variables. It
also lists defined functions. _ImageMagick is one such function.

perl: Net::DNS requires Win32::IPHelper
Reini, The Net::DNS module, which you ship with perl, depends on perl-libwin32 (packaged separately) and Win32::IPHelper, the latter of which depends on Win32::API and enum modules. Win32::API needs a custom typemap file in order to compile on Cygwin, which AFAICS should be: TYPEMAP HINSTANCE T_PTR LPCSTR T_PV LPCWSTR T_PV Again, I'm going to have to ask you to break out the extra modules you ship with perl and handle them individually. It's not only a matter of handling these dependencies, but there are several modules which need to be updated, and you shouldn't have to rebuild (nor should we have to ask you to rebuild) all of perl in order to do so.

[ANNOUNCEMENT] [ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: mintty-0.8.2-1
mintty 0.8.2-1 is on its way to the Cygwin mirrors. This is a bugfix release.
DESCRIPTION
===
Mintty is a terminal emulator for Cygwin with a native Windows user
interface and minimalist design. Among its features are Unicode
support and a graphical options dialog. Its terminal emulation is
largely compatible with xterm, but it does not require an X server.
Mintty is based on code from PuTTY by Simon Tatham and team.
CHANGES
===
- Fixed bug causing 100% CPU consumption when keeping the terminal
open after the child process exited.
- The next keypress after the child process exited closes the
terminal.
- Fixed bug that opened the window in fullscreen mode when it was
meant to be hidden (e.g. when started with cygstart's --hide
argument).
- Tweaked postinstall and preremove scripts to better cope with Just
for me installations.
Previous changes from 0.7.1:
- Copy-on-select is enabled by default.
- The default font size was reduced from 10 to 9, more in line with
the Windows console's default.
- I/O handling was redesigned using /dev/windows and select(). The
result of this is that signals sent to mintty are now handled
immediately. In particular, suspending mintty works properly now.
- A new option allows to put the scrollbar on the left-hand side of
the window. It's on the 'Window' pane of the options dialog.
- The line cursor is displayed with the thickness configured in the
Windows accessibility control panel (which defaults to 1 pixel).
- Excess line content is no longer thrown away when narrowing the
window, i.e. it now reappears if the window is widened again
afterwards. (Rebreaking of long lines is not done though.)
- Changing the font smoothing setting takes effect immediately after
pressing OK or Apply.
- Failure to save options triggers an error message instead of
silently forgetting the options.
- A couple of annoyances in the handling of mouse clicks were fixed.
