javac on cygwin

Ok, I've searched for articles on getting a java compiler working on cygwin. I got very vague info. Can someone please give me the newbie quick setup on setting up a java compiler to work on cygwin. I've got the java JDK 1.4.1 from java.sun.com. Now what do I do?

Re: sed -i problem?

Ok, I tracked down the problem and it is because fopen is used for the file instead of ck_fopen. Alas I don't have a patch ready (a nice solution would be practically the diff from 4.0.5 to 4.0.6), but grepping for [^_]fopen.*"w and replacing fopen with ck_fopen will probably be a quick, workable

Re: xinetd/ init not working for me

OK, let's troubleshut the problem step by step. I need to find out first where the problem is, in init, initscripts or xinetd. I suspect when you run init-config you answered "yes" to overwrite an existing /etc/inittab installed by initscripts package. What are the last three lines of /etc/inittab?

Are you looking for a minimal list of packages required? I'm an atypical user (I have installed pretty much every available package at one time or another), but for my needs, a base cygwin install works fine after adding: - openssh - XFree (get the whole shebang while you're at it, clipboard in

Erm... Could anyone update us on the status of Perl 5.8? It is working fine for me, with the minor annoyance of having to keep remembering to "Keep" the package while running Setup, because it offers to replace 5.8 with 5.6 every time... :) R. Gerrit P. Haase wrote: Hallo Linda, 5.8? Is

Re: javac on cygwin

Kevin, Javac is not particularly special. It is a Windows-native program, and as such requires absolute file and directory names be provided in Windows format (forward slashes are OK, but drive letters are required and the Cygwin notion of root is completely unknown to such programs). PATH-like

Chris, I think it's in one of the email RFCs. I remember tracking it down once during an (ill-considered) "debate" on one of the Bay Area Usenet groups. I should have made note of where I found it, but I didn't. I can find a variety of non-official mentions of this as a recommended convention u

I've noticed slow pipe performance when my CPU is busy running low-priority programs (e.g., SETI@home). For example, if I run: % grep keychain .profile the command completes very fast. However, when I run % cat .profile | grep keychain the command takes 6-7 seconds to complete. However, if
