Re: Using ARM GNU GCC with Cygwin

2020-04-08 Thread Ben Kamen

Well then.

This certainly turned out to be all sorts of interesting discussion. :)

I for one also can say it's nice to have a cygwin environment over DOS if I'm 
forced to a CLI on Windows.

Most of my days are spent on Linux  -- but it looks like I have some legit CLI 
time coming on Windows and cygwin was my first go-to thought for that.

It's already bad enough how many times I type 'ls -l' in DOS to get an error. 
HAhahaha.

Have you tried using the rely-to-all function of your mailer?  When I do

[Slightly OT] Need help with GNU ld

2010-04-01 Thread Ben Kamen

Hi all,

 I'm sort of lost as to where I might even start with this, and since this 
group is so fluent (I'm guessing) with GCC, I'm hoping someone here can either 
answer or point me to where I can go look.

(I'm looking on the gnu.org's gplusplus list and am not sure if that's a good 
source since it seems kind of dead)

Anyway - here's my problem.

I'm working on an embedded app that uses GCC for its compiler.

I have 2 pieces of code that share common library functions from libc.a like 
memcpy and strlen

Because the two pieces are a bootloader and the application, I would like the 
bootloader to be linked with a completely private set of functions which 
INCLUDEs the library calls they make.

This would duplicate those libc.a calls like memcpy() and strlen() inside the 
bootloader portion.

So my question is (and I might be looking in the wrong place to do this, but it 
seems like 'ld' would take care of it):

How do I tell the ld that for bootloader.o, all library references like 
memcpy() should be inlined/included with that function. I've got all the 
functions in the bootloader corralled into the memory space I want, but the 
functions called in libc.a are shared.

'static' only works for the immediate function while any calls to a libc.a 
function get shared with the main application.

I've already tried the forum for the micro-controller I'm using.. but 
apparently, it's new enough that I'm too far ahead on the curve for anyone else 
to help me. (even from the company)

Thanks in advance and sorry for bugging all of you here.. if I hear crickets, 
I'll try and keep digging elsewhere.

 -Ben

Cygwin Usage -- Occasional but sunny

2010-02-20 Thread Ben Kamen

I just wanted to say thanks to everyone who contributes to Cygwin for the great 
tool it is.

I don't use it often, but like these past 2 weeks using openssl, net-snmp, vi 
and tcl from a friendly ksh prompt on windows to do some development from my 
WinXP laptop has been great.

The ease which I showed stuff working to my clients prompted them to go out and 
install/update their own machines.

So - I just wanted to say thanks!

:D

SNMP utils

2010-02-15 Thread Ben Kamen

Hey all,

Pardon this rather neophyte question:


 I have cygwin on my laptop (from years ago) and it has snmp utils loaded that 
I can access from
cygwin. (net-snmp 5.4.1)

Anyway - I don't see net-snmp available from the current list.. so I'm assuming 
I installed it separately..

But it's in my cygwin directory -- so I thought I'd check here first.

Can anyone validate my paranoia? (and forgetfulness)

Thanks a bunch!

Ok, this is one neurotic list.


A lot of Linux mailing lists have that policy.  Especially if it is
high volume or has a large subscriber base.  The idea is that someone
can read a single email and understand it without having to bounce all
over the place.


What still always makes me laugh is the people who are so emphatic about top 
vs. bottom posting.

(someone even had a clever .sig showing the flow of top posting and how 
backwards it is)

But honestly, we humans have remarkable brains that let us put back together 
the conversation in either order.
Is it really *that* hard? Maybe for some.

But what made me laugh about the .sig was that it missed something.

it said something along the idea of:

Because it just does.
Why.
Yes.
So, does that make it evil?
because it reverses the flow of discussion.
why is top posting evil?

But what makes me laugh is that people on a list have now just received a sequence of messages in the correct flow with the 
most current information at the top without the need for scrolling through redundant previous message info just to get to the goods

at the bottom.

Personally (and this is the important part), I don't let it bother *me* because 
I realize everyone's brain works a little differently.

Speaking of which.. http://mailformat.dan.info/quoting/top-posting.html

Sorry for my ramble. I'll go hide now.

TCL 20080420 lost serial port capabilities

2008-12-27 Thread Ben Kamen
I used to use COM ports on windows all the time and now I installed Cygwin on another machine and the

I've recompiled tcl from the cygwin src package to no avail.

I haven't starting digging yet --- unfortunately my last post went unanswered.

So I'm trying again.

Any thoughts?

Ok, correction -- not totally lost. I was having problems with fconfigure 
stating that
fconfigure wasn't valid when used with a serial port. (COMx:) -- but since 
compiling the src,
it's back to working.

So there's something amiss with the default installable pkg.

Just an FYI for whoever maintains the package.

Subject: Problem with TCL libraries 20080420

Hey guys (anyone listening?)

I recently updated my cygwin TCL library and the -mode switch disappeared from 
fconfigure.

The TCL folks mentioned that if no serial devices are present on the machine 
the package is compiled on, then -mode for fconfigure is no longer made an 
option. (or something like that).

So currently, fconfigure and it's ability to manipulate serial ports is broken.

Unless I'm wonky and need to do something extra (which I didn't need to do with 
my last install)
