A socket is created for only one domain/address family, AF_INET, AF_UNIX, AF_INET6. There's no such thing as a socket supporting more than one address family or more than one socket type (stream/dgram). I guess what I should have said, was that: when you open a socket for AF_INET6, and you do NOT setsockopt IPV6_V6ONLY (on Vista+, where dualstack sockets are the default), then you get v4-in-v6 mapping for incoming v4 packets. Uh, right. I forgot about that scenario, sorry. I forgot to mention that the problems I ran into were exposed only on Vista+, XP- didn't display them: I believe the difference is that Vista was where support for dualstack sockets was added -- so obviously this issue wasn't a problem on pre-Vista. Indeed, the IPV6_V6ONLY option was not supported pre-Vista, either. I think xinetd's IPv6 support is written so that it doesn't need dualstack support; it uses separate sockets for IPv6 and IPv4 (but on Vista, with dualstack support, all the incoming IPv4 packets show up on the IPv6 socket, as v4-in-v6, instead of on the IPv4 socket. IIRC.) Maybe xinetd should be modified so that IPv6 sockets are in IPV6_V6ONLY -- but then any v4-in-v6 packets that some OTHER router wrapped might get dropped? What a pain. Hmm, I don't think that this is a problem. In theory, if you didn't use the IPV6_V6ONLY option, you shouldn't have been able to bind a IPv4 socket to the same port. At least that's how it's implemented on Linux, afaik. If Windows allows it, it's certainly Windows-specific. Given the Linux behaviour, if xinetd binds an IPv4 and an IPv6 socket to the same port without using IPV6_V6ONLY is kind of a bug.

Re: emacs-23.2-3 and DBus
On 10/4/2010 11:47 PM, nyc4...@aol.com wrote: Thank you for your work on incorporating Emacs and DBus! Can you tell me how you are testing it? I tried to use notifiations.el (from the Emacs 24 trunk). After loading it, Emacs appears to freeze and I see that the emacs and winlogin.exe processes consume almost all of the CPU. After about 30 to 45 minutes, I pressed `C-g' and saw the message Back to top level.. However, Emacs is still frozen and the only thing I could do is to kill emacs from outside of emacs. Please send Cygwin questions to the Cygwin mailing list, not to individual maintainers. I know virtually nothing about D-Bus. To test it, I simply followed the instructions given by Michael Albinus in the thread http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2010-08/threads.html#00330 . Here's a brief summary: 1. Start the messagebus service. 2. Start a dbus session (eval `dbus-launch --auto-syntax`) in a shell. 3. echo $DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS . 4. In a different shell, set (and export) $DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS to this value, and run dbus-monitor --session . 5. Start Emacs in the first shell, and load the dbus library. You should see output from dbus-monitor in the other shell, showing that an application has started. It will also tell you the name of that application, like :1.1. 6. In Emacs, evaluate (dbus-get-unique-name :session) . You should get the same name. 7. Register for signals sent by the D-Bus: (defun my-dbus-signal-handler (rest args) (message Signal from bus %s received: %s (dbus-event-bus-name last-input-event) args)) (dbus-register-signal :system dbus-service-dbus dbus-path-dbus dbus-interface-dbus NameOwnerChanged 'my-dbus-signal-handler) (dbus-register-signal :session dbus-service-dbus dbus-path-dbus dbus-interface-dbus NameOwnerChanged 'my-dbus-signal-handler) 8. Now you could open any other D-Bus application, and you should be notified in Emacs (in the echo area and the *Messages* buffer). For example, you could try dbus-monitor --session , started in the same shell where you started Emacs. I'm afraid that's all I know. Unless you think there is a Cygwin-specific problem, further questions should probably be directed to one of the Emacs lists, where you will find people who are knowledgeable about D-Bus integration in Emacs. BTW, there has been quite a bit of development of this integration since the release of Emacs 23.2. Some improvements will appear in Emacs 23.3, and some won't appear until 24.1. So if you're trying to use a library from the Emacs 24 trunk, it's possible that it's simply not compatible with Emacs 23.

cygwin + xwin in win7 as unprivileged user?
Is it possible to make Cygwin work with xwin as an unprivileged user. I'm even open to stupid hacks like making the entire Cygwin directory owned by the Everyone group. I tried that but then it couldn't create a socket needed after I ran 'startxwin'. Anyway to get this working without using run as admin? -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/cygwin-%2B-xwin-in-win7-as-unprivileged-user--tp29889419p29889419.html Sent from the Cygwin list mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- 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
[ANNOUNCEMENT] updated: unison2.27, unison2.32, unison2.40
The Unison packages for Cygwin have been updated. This is a minor update. A small patch was applied to the source of each package to allow them to build correctly with OCaml 3.12.0, the current release of OCaml in Cygwin. There should be no change to the operation of any of the unison packages. You may ignore the updates if you like. Unison is a file synchronizer for Unix and Windows. It allows two replicas of a collection of files and directories to be stored on different hosts (or on different disks on the same host), modified separately, and then brought up to date by propagating the changes in each replica to the other. = Unison packages in Cygwin = Unison is packaged for Cygwin as several independent packages, each providing a version of Unison that is incompatible with the others. You have to run compatible versions of Unison on the client and server, or Unison will issue an error message and quit. Two versions of Unison are compatible if and only if the first two numbers in their version strings are the same. For example, all versions 2.32.* are mutually compatible, and incompatible with versions 2.27.*. By installing one or more of these packages side by side, you can use whichever one you need to synchronize with a particular host. Please read /usr/share/doc/unison*/README.Cygwin for more details. The unison* packages install a convenience symlink from /usr/bin/unison to one of the versioned unison executables, e.g. unison-2.27.exe. alternatives(8) is used to manage the symlink. If the symlink is being managed in auto mode, then it will automatically track the highest numbered version of unison that you have installed. You can override this by either changing the symlink manually with ln(1), or, preferably, by using alternatives(8): alternatives --display unison shows you the installed versions of unison, their priorities, which executable the symlink points to, and whether the symlink is being managed in auto or manual mode. alternatives --config unison presents a menu from which you can choose which version you want to use as the default. This puts the symlink in manual mode. alternatives --auto unison puts the symlink in automatic mode, where it will always point to the highest numbered version of unison that's installed on your host. alternatives --set unison /usr/bin/unison-$V.exe forces the symlink to point to unison-$V.exe, and puts it in manual mode. Please see alternatives(8) for more details. Andrew E. Schulman *** To update your installation, click on the Install Cygwin now link on the http://cygwin.com/ web page. This downloads setup.exe to your system.

Re: cygwin + xwin in win7 as unprivileged user?
We are an an AD, perhaps the inability to create a socket is coming from above. However, I have full admin rights on these machines so I ought to be able to adjust that if that is the case. I'll take a look. Meanwhile, I tried various other tricks to run the thing as admin without it asking for a password, but no dice.

Re: trouble posting to cygwin-apps
Really this belongs on the CMake dev list. The new release I just posted is not really a new release of CMake, but it is a new release for cygwin. The current cmake that comes with cygwin is 2.6.4 (very old). The one I just uploaded was 2.8.2 (still old but much newer.) It has no changes at all. We are currently working on 2.8.3, it has some of the patches you want, but not all. However, please work with me on the cmake dev list to come up with a solution that won't break all of the projects I support (VTK, ITK, and several others). I am sure if we work together we can come up with a solution that makes everyone happy. But, I would really rather have that discussion on the CMake developers mailing list. (http://public.kitware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cmake-developers) I do not want to create a cygwin release that does not match the upstream CMake. Thanks. -Bill Bill, As you are aware, my CMake build in Ports contains the necessary patches.

OK, I see that it is simply a program. That makes more sense. Thank you! At this point, I'd rather just remove the application, for now.

gdb 7 port for Cygwin?
Has gdb 7.x been ported to Cygwin yet? I can't use it to debug gcc 4.5 programs (I usually get line not found when trying to set a breakpoint): http://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-4.5/changes.html GCC now generates unwind info also for epilogues. DWARF debuginfo generated by GCC now uses more features of DWARF3 than it used to do and also some DWARF4 features. GDB older than 7.0 is not able to handle either of these, so to debug GCC 4.5 generated binaries or libraries GDB 7.0 or later is needed.

Of course it requires Ports' CMake: http://cygwin-ports.git.sourceforge.net/git/gitweb.cgi?p=cygwin-ports/ports;a=tree;f=graphics/opencv ftp://ftp.cygwinports.org/pub/cygwinports/release-2/opencv Please let me know if this somehow does not suffice. Yep, I'm using your version -- the only problem (it's not really a *problem*, per se) is, I have to rebuild it myself because the cygwin-ports version has a LOT of dependencies on other cygwin-ports packages. I don't need video stream handling, so I can drop all those requirements (like ffmpeg, etc). I'm trying to avoid polluting my installation with whole bunch of cygwin-ports packages, since that might pollute official builds of other packages I maintain. Yeah, I know I could have multiple cygwin installs to keep them separate, but... FYI, I also had to rebuild the cygwin-ports cmake from your -src package. When I installed the cygwin-ports binary package, cmake simply exited without doing anything -- but I don't see any missing DLLs in the cygcheck output. I suspect the issue is that you have built most of cygwin-ports using the beta gcc-4.5 (and, the new binaries require the libgcc1 DLL from 4.5). Again, I don't want to pollute my package maintenance installation with a beta compiler (or its runtime), so... -- Chuck -- 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

updated: unison2.27, unison2.32, unison2.40
The Unison packages for Cygwin have been updated. This is a minor update. A small patch was applied to the source of each package to allow them to build correctly with OCaml 3.12.0, the current release of OCaml in Cygwin. There should be no change to the operation of any of the unison packages. You may ignore the updates if you like. Unison is a file synchronizer for Unix and Windows. It allows two replicas of a collection of files and directories to be stored on different hosts (or on different disks on the same host), modified separately, and then brought up to date by propagating the changes in each replica to the other. = Unison packages in Cygwin = Unison is packaged for Cygwin as several independent packages, each providing a version of Unison that is incompatible with the others. You have to run compatible versions of Unison on the client and server, or Unison will issue an error message and quit. Two versions of Unison are compatible if and only if the first two numbers in their version strings are the same. For example, all versions 2.32.* are mutually compatible, and incompatible with versions 2.27.*. By installing one or more of these packages side by side, you can use whichever one you need to synchronize with a particular host. Please read /usr/share/doc/unison*/README.Cygwin for more details. The unison* packages install a convenience symlink from /usr/bin/unison to one of the versioned unison executables, e.g. unison-2.27.exe. alternatives(8) is used to manage the symlink. If the symlink is being managed in auto mode, then it will automatically track the highest numbered version of unison that you have installed. You can override this by either changing the symlink manually with ln(1), or, preferably, by using alternatives(8): alternatives --display unison shows you the installed versions of unison, their priorities, which executable the symlink points to, and whether the symlink is being managed in auto or manual mode. alternatives --config unison presents a menu from which you can choose which version you want to use as the default. This puts the symlink in manual mode. alternatives --auto unison puts the symlink in automatic mode, where it will always point to the highest numbered version of unison that's installed on your host. alternatives --set unison /usr/bin/unison-$V.exe forces the symlink to point to unison-$V.exe, and puts it in manual mode. Please see alternatives(8) for more details. Andrew E. Schulman *** To update your installation, click on the Install Cygwin now link on the http://cygwin.com/ web page.
