I am a happy Cygwin user.
I am trying to convert a program so that it will be Cygwin independent.
I have struck two problems:
--
(1) The program compiles and links clean, but is unable to use printf() to
display a long long variable.
$ cat test1.c
#include stdio.h
int main(void)
{
long long number = 123456789012;
printf(%lld\n, number);
return(0);
}
$ gcc -Wall -Wshadow test1.c -s -o test1
$ ./test1
123456789012
$ gcc -Wall -Wshadow -mno-cygwin test1.c -s -o test1
$ ./test1
-1097262572
$
QUESTION 1: Should long long be fully supported in mingw32?
It seems that the compiler and the library do not agree.
--
(2) A program using snprintf() compiles clean, but cannot link.
$ cat test2.c
#include stdio.h
int main(void)
{
char buffer[20];
long number = 12345678;
snprintf(buffer, sizeof(buffer), %lld\n, number);
return(0);
}
$ gcc -Wall -Wshadow test2.c -s -o test2
{no errors}
$ gcc -Wall -Wshadow -mno-cygwin test2.c -s -o test2
/cygdrive/c/WINDOWS/TEMP/ccaayW3m.o(.text+0x2a):test2.c: undefined
reference to `snprintf'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
$
QUESTION 2: Should snprintf() be fully supported in mingw32?
It seems that the compiler and the library do not agree.
--
In both cases I can code around the limitations if I have to.
Regards,
Warren.
