RE: 1.3.9: java with cygdrive
It took a time, but I think, I now figured it out. thanks for the hint. SOLUTION: outside-cygwin-executables need there paths like this: '"c:\rt.jar"' instead of '/cygdrive/c/rt.jar'. happier i leaving home today axel -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
