Hi Csaba;
I used setup.exe.
The issue and confusion arise because I am using the Netbeans IDE, and
Netbeans requires explicit reference to the gcc, g++, fortran compilers and
assembler being used. I am running into difficulties.

gcc 4.8.3-?
Netbeans 7.4
Hi csaba;
I just downloaded the latest version of gcc (16 Jun version). Strangely
enough, the [ANNOUNCEMENT] says that it is gcc 4.8.3-1 and the setup
download says it is gcc 4.8.3-2. Sigh.
There are some changes. The

(and doing so is an off-topic question for this list) but I will say that if
Netbeans is only going to be handing DOS-style paths to the build tools, the
Cygwin build tools won't be the ones you want to use. They really want
POSIX-style paths that Cygwin prefers. So
Hi Larry;
I think I mislead you. Netbeans is quite comfortable with cygwin, and I
believe demands it in a Windows environment. What Netbeans requires is the
exact oath to use for gcc, g++, gfortran, the assembler, make file, gdb, and
qmake (optional). The make file path and gdb are invariant. The

Hi folks,
I'm looking for some documentation about the cygwin spawn use, or a
recommendation of a package that has had fork/exec replaced by spawn that I can
review to see how someone else did it. Preferably less intimidating than gcc,
and which uses pipes for IPC between parent and child.
You will need to use windows pipes as well as the windows version of
fork. I have a couple of small apps that do what you are suggesting.
What I did was to abstract the functions for creating process and pipes.
Abstraction was done in the make file. There are functions like
