Hi all,
I've been trying the suggestions mentioned on this list:
1. Create an import library
echo EXPORTS > foo.def
nm foo.exe | grep ' T _' | sed 's/.* T _//' >> foo.def
dlltool --def foo.def --dllname foo.exe --output-lib foo.a
I couldn't get this to work. In the executable I am trying to load

Is cygwin in any way affected by the windows domain settings, other than
user credentials?
Reason I ask: I'm trying to check out some CVS sources from a server

Doh, sorry. Just noticed that my user entry in /etc/passwd was still
pointing to the network drive. Changed this, and it's working fine...

Hi all,
Now that GTK2 is in the package tree, I thought I'd give building XFCE a
try. This package depends on 'Disk based hashes' (dbh), which needs to
be built as a shared library. Dbh uses libtool in its build process.
Of course this complains with

Put all the functions into a library. Link the application and the

Hmmm, not sure if I can convinve the XFCE developers of such a change,
as it's fairly major.

Hi all,
Sorry to keep going on about this, I really want to get this working.
I've made *some* progress in how to build "plugin libraries". I have
attached my test case to this mail in case somebody is willing to have a
look at it. Let me describe it first.
I did some reading on the libtool docu
Hi all,
Is dlopen() & friends supported under cygwin? If so, is the DLL that
gets loaded using dlopen() a regular Win32 DLL, or a 'special' type of
cygwin DLL?

cygwin) I had a look at the gmodule source code of glib, and it seems
Hi,
I'm trying to port an application to Cygwin that uses libtool to drive
compilation/linking.
This application needs to be linked with a ".def" file during the
linking stage, i.e. (formatted to make it readable)
/bin/bash ./libtool --mode=link gcc -g -O2
-o libplugin.la -
Ha, who'd have thought...
I found it. I can use '--export-symbols plugin.def' for this. Even
though the plugin.def doesn't contain exports, but imports... (this is a
plugin library that invokes functions contained in the executable that
loads the library...)

Hi,
libtool-1.5.6-3, cygwin 1.5.10(0.116/4/2)
I noticed the following today when trying to compile an application.
Before I upgraded libtool earlier this week (not sure from which
version, but a very recent one), this worked.

Hi Gerrit,
Using libtool under cygwin, it is quite common that a shared library
(eg. cygfoo.dll) is installed in a different directory than the libtool
library (eg. libfoo.la). libfoo.la would then point to the location of
the actual DLL:
# The name that we can dlopen(3).
dlname='../bin/cygxfce

Hi all,
I have a program that segfaults, and it's quite obvious that this is
caused due to some memory corruption. Except it segfaults at a place
where, if running it in gdb, there shouldn't be a problem. There seems
to be some memory corruption somewhere, and I can't figure out where.

Suppose I have a plugin library that contains calls that reside in the

Hi all,
I seem to remember that the cygwin versions of libtool/autoconf/automake
have/had cygwin specific patches applied to them. Is that (still) the
case, or is cygwin distributed with the official upstream versions?
Kind regards, Maarten

For sqsh, FreeTDS works fine
