Re: -clipboard not working?
You did get -r CYGWIN as specified on the server development page, right?

is this a fix which is on its way? *hopes*

It's a weird one certainly, if that's the case.

I presume there are no system calls between OpenClipboard and GetLastError? It's a weird one certainly, if that's the case. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Alexander Gottwald Sent: 15 March 2004 15:50 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: -clipboard not working?

This is not the return value of OpenCliboard but the value of GetLastError and it says "No error". This is sure an error in the api. bye ago -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.gotti.org ICQ: 126018723

RE: -clipboard not working?
Ok, just upgraded to the latest packages, and this is still problematic. I can copy from (say nedit) to the same window, but when I paste in a windows app, the app hangs. I just checked my XWin.log and I get: winClipboardWindowProc - WM_DRAWCLIPBOARD - Initializing - Returning. winProcSetSelectionOwner - OpenClipboard () failed: winProcSetSelectionOwner - OpenClipboard () failed: winProcSetSelectionOwner - OpenClipboard () failed: winProcSetSelectionOwner - OpenClipboard () failed: winProcSetSelectionOwner - OpenClipboard () failed: winProcSetSelectionOwner - OpenClipboard () failed: The same occurs with, say, xterm. My knowledge of the windows clipboard is somewhat limited, though I think OpenClipboard returns a BOOL, so maybe printing the result of FormatMessage with FORMAT_MESSAGE_FROM_SYSTEM and GetLastError() might be of more use than the 0! A quick look at the SDK doc said "The window identified by the hWndNewOwner parameter does not become the clipboard owner unless the EmptyClipboard function is called." I don't know if that is relevant, just might be!
