Problem with select() on console

2010-07-14 Thread Cliff Hones
When select() is used to test for input availability on the standard cygwin console in normal (cooked) mode, it indicates input is available as soon as any key is pressed. However, a call to read(0,...) will (correctly) block until a terminating RETURN is entered. select() should only indicate in

Windows 7 WOW64 seems to DTRT with respect to copying the process data; needs_count_in_si_lpres2 can be false except on Vista. I'm testing a cygwin with that modification now and it works fine (persistent Windows 7 sporadic issues notwithstanding; those seem to be solved by rebaseall). lpReserved2

Hi, Is there a chance to get Unicode with cygwin to work? Nowadays Unicode support is a fundamental component in modern software; All state-of-the art operating systems support Unicode. I do not understand why cygwin lacks this support. Unfortunately also this solution seems to be dead: http

My Windows 7 (64-bit) machine is part of a domain and I normally log into it as a domain user. Something is misconfigured because Cygwin programs seem to have a problem with file permissions. For example: $ ls -l visitor* --+ 1 cory Domain Users 3236 2010-07-11 22:37 visitor.cpp
