[ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: cppunit-0.12.0-1
I've updated the version of cppunit to 0.12.0-1. This is a bugfix release. The Cygwin release is the vanilla version, no additional patches. === New in CppUnit 1.12.0: -- * Portability: - autogen.sh can now be run on Mac OS X (patch #1449380 contributed by Sander Temme). * MFC Test runner: - fixed bug #1498175: double click on failure would sometime not goto failed assertion in visual studio. * Documentation: - now generated with doxygen 1.4.7 new 'tabs' style. New in CppUnit 1.11.4: -- * Portability: - Support for Embedded Visual C++ 4 added. For this purpose, CppUnit now provides a very simple stream implementation if none is provided. This should also help porting on other platforms which have STL but no stream support. Just make sure that CPPUNIT_NO_STREAM is defined to 1 in your config header. * Assertion: - Added missing _MESSAGE variants for the following assertions: CPPUNIT_ASSERT_DOUBLES_EQUAL_MESSAGE CPPUNIT_ASSERT_THROW_MESSAGE CPPUNIT_ASSERT_NO_THROW_MESSAGE CPPUNIT_ASSERT_ASSERTION_FAIL_MESSAGE CPPUNIT_ASSERT_ASSERTION_PASS_MESSAGE Notes: change made to CPPUNIT_ASSERT_THROW may cause compilation error if you're expecting std::exception as it would be caught twice. Contact us if it is an issue (we don't see much use for such a test). Some assertions failure message are now more detailed (exception, expression). Thanks to Neil Ferguson who contributed this patch. - Assertion on real number now output expected and actual value using the maximum available precision instead of the previous strategy of rounding to 6 digits. Thanks to Neil Ferguson who contributed this patch. * Outputter: - XML Ouputter: patch #997006 contributed by Akos Maroy makes the 'stand-alone' attribute of the XML header optional. See XmlOutputter::setStandalone() & XmlDocument::setStandalone(). - Better integration of compiler output for gcc on Mac OS X with Xcode (contributed by Claus Broch). * MFC Test Runner - Integration with VC++ 7.0 & 7.1. Double clicking on a failure will now to the failure location in the open IDE (no add-in necessary). This was contributed by Max Quatember and Andreas Pfaffenbichler. - Progress bar: now use system color to draw border (patch from bug #1165875 contributed by Pieter Van Dyck). * QT Test Runner - Fixed display of multi-line messages (patch contributed by Karol Szkudlarek). * Compilation: - The standard pkg-config file is now generated on unix (contributed by Robert Leight). - MinGW: patch #1024428 contributed by astar, fixed compilation issue in Win32DynamicLibraryManager.cpp. - MinGW, cygwin: enable build of shared library when using libtool. patch #1194394 contributed by Stéphane Fillod. - autotool: applied patch #1076398 contributed by Henner Sudek. Quote: "This patch allows AM_PATH_CPPUNIT to accept version numbers without minor and micro version. Now you can do: AM_PATH_CPPUNIT(1.9) instead of AM_PATH_CPPUNIT(1.9.0)" - Visual Studio 2005: removed deprecated warning. * Documentation: - Corrected many typos in cookbook and money example. Thanks to all those who helped ! * Bug Fix: - cppunit.m4: patch #946302, AM_PATH_CPPUNIT doesn't report result if CppUnit is missing. - Message/SourceLine: copy constructor have been specifically implemented to ensure they are thread-safe even if std::string copy constructor is not (usually on reference count based implementation). - TestResultCollector: fixed memory leak occuring when calling reset(). * Contrib: - added XSLT for compatibility with Ant junit xml formatter. Patch #1112053 contributed by Norbert Barbosa. See xml-xsl/cppunit2junit.xsl and cppunit2junit.txt for details. - xml-xsl/report.xsl has been fixed to work with current xml output. * (Possible) Compatiblity break: - All text output is now done on cout() instead of sometime cerr & sometime cout depending on the component. - OStringStream definition has been removed from Portability.h. This means that is no longer included, and that ostringstream and string might not be defined. In practice this should have no impact since those includes have been moved to other CppUnit headers. * Notes: - CppUnit now uses the alias OStream when refering to std::ostream for portability. New in CppUnit 1.10.2: -- * Bug Fix: - Memory checker: bug #938753, array bound read in splitPathString() with substr if an empty string is passed. - Memory leaks: bug #952912, many memory leaks removed in the MFC test plug-in runner. - Crash when using CPPUNIT_TEST_SUITE_REGISTRATION with cpp
[ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: email 2.5.1-1
The cygwin email package has been updated to the current stable version 2.5.1. To ease packaging, the default configuration files that were stored in /etc/defaults/etc/email/ are now stored in /etc/defaults/etc/. The actual configuration files are still kept in /etc/email. Upstream changelog: - Fixed bug where an assert caused an abort when encrypting any message with gnupg under Cygwin. - Fixed compile errors saying SIGHUP, SIGINT or other SIG* were "undeclared - Fixed e-mail address parsing problems in which eMail would report error's such as an e-mail address was invalid. - Very small source cleanup. 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. Then, run setup and answer all of the questions. *** CYGWIN-ANNOUNCE UNSUBSCRIBE INFO *** If you want to unsubscribe from the cygwin-announce mailing list, look at the "List-Unsubscribe: " tag in the email header of this message.

[ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: email-2.5.0-1
Version 2.5.0-1 of email has been uploaded. Email is a simple command-line program to send emails. It can be configured to use either your sendmail installation or directly via SMTP. It supports binary attachments, and a simple text based address book, with groups. Also, if GnuPG is installed, it can digitally sign and encrypt outgoing emails. Changelog: - Separated e-mail name and address and only format them in the headers. Only use address surrounded by <> as per RFC 822 for the MAIL FROM: and RCPT TO: SMTP commands. - Added Dstring library which is a string library to growing strings. - Using Dstring's for reading in config file and address book. This fixes the MINBUF limitations that were happening with very long Groups in the address book. - Added ability to specify new headers on the command line. - Handle \r in address book so that Cygwin users don't have to put a comment at the end of their lines. - the --attach and --header option can be specified multiple times and also have multiple entries with comma delimeters. If you have questions or comments, please send them to the Cygwin mailing list at: cygwin@cygwin.com . *** CYGWIN-ANNOUNCE UNSUBSCRIBE INFO *** If you want to unsubscribe from the cygwin-announce mailing list, look at the "List-Unsubscribe: " tag in the email header of this message.

Laurynas,
I fit everything I need on 1 CD, by not including the /xfree directory
(370MB), the /release/XFree86 directory (80MB), and not including the [prev]
and [test] packages listed in setup.ini:
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
my $dir = shift || '/hdc1/cygwin';
my $file = $dir . '/setup.ini';
open(FH, $file) || die "Can't open $file: $!";
my $prev = 0;
my $line = 0;
while () {
$line++;
if (/\[prev\]/ || /\[test\]/) {
$prev++;
next;
}
next unless $prev;
if (/^\s*$/) {
$prev = 0;
next;
}
if (/^\w+:\s*(\S+)\s+/) {
$_ = $1;
next unless m|/|;
$file = $dir . '/' . $_;
if (-e $file) {
print "deleting $file\n";
unlink($file);
}
}
}
Hope that helps,

expat-1.95.5: undefined reference to `XML_ParserCreate'
I'm trying to compile a simple expat program:
#include
#include
int main() {
XML_ParserCreate(NULL);
return 0;
}
but I get:
$ gcc -lexpat -L/lib expattest.c
/cygdrive/...:expattest.c: undefined reference to `XML_ParserCreate'
yet:
$ nm /lib/libexpat.a | grep XML_ParserCreate
T _XML_ParserCreate
So, I tried compiling expat from source via:
cd /usr/src
tar xvzf expat-1.95.5.tar.gz
./expat-1.95.5-1.sh conf
./expat-1.95.5-1.sh prep
./expat-1.95.5-1.sh build
And tried to build one of their examples (make check, the expat test suite,
relies on http://check.sf.net/ to be installed):
cd expat-1.95.5/.obj
$
gcc -g -O2 -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes -Wstrict-prototypes -fexceptions -I/us
r/src/expat-1.95.5/lib -I. -lexpat -L.libs -o examples/outline.c
/usr/src/expat-1.95.5/examples/outline.c
/cygdrive/...: In function `main':
/usr/src/expat-1.95.5/examples/outline.c:60: undefined reference to
`_XML_ParserCreate'
and I *still* get the same error.
I've scanned the mailing list to no avail. What am I possibly doing wrong?

RE: cmd.exe as telnetd login shell: "mode con LINES=24 COLS=80" has no effect..
Tom,
The Windows Telnet Service fixes the MORE and DOSKEY problems you describe.
If you want to disallow external telnet, you could block port 23, and
require users to ssh in, and then run
% telnet localhost
Of course, they'll have to enter their NTLM username/password.
You could even change their shell to be a shell script containing this
command.
Can anybody guess why cmd.exe works with the Windows Telnet Service but
fails with cygwin's ssh or telnet?

RE: Trouble with RSA authentication
/usr/doc/Cygwin/openssh-3.4p1-5.README states that RSA authentication only
works if sshd runs under a user account (as opposed to the SYSTEM account).
To that end, I've created 2 shell scripts to allow one to "switch" from
running sshd as SYSTEM to running as a user, and visa versa.
These scripts will also fix the '/var/empty' problem, so they are worthwhile
to run once, even if you will never switch.
I haven't tried it, but you could probably even have a user and a SYSTEM
daemon running at the same time, by running one of the daemons on another
port via the -p option.
Attached and inline are the scripts.
I'll also put the latest versions up at http://www.netebb.com/cygwin/.
I'd love to see these incorporated into cygwin's openssh (or at least a user
contribs) package.
I'm not a cygwin wizard, so feedback is appreciated.

ssh patches to fix installation issues
Attached are three small patches to the following files:
/bin/ssh-host-config
/bin/ssh-user-config
/usr/doc/Cygwin/openssh-3.4p1-5.README
to fix some installation issues and better explain using sshd in Windows.
The ssh-user-config changes are due to the fact that the default cygwin
umask is 000. Maybe a .bash_profile could be created containing umask 022
when the user's home directory is first created. Just a thought.
This is the culmination of 6 hours of list perusing, and hair pulling, so
it's definitely "field tested".
Hope this helps,
