I am using Fedora Core 2 so i think everything is pretty latest.
I changed "cygpath -w" to "-m" in the nescc script.
but i am still getting the same errors.

i downloaded the version of tinyos that i have installed, i.e. 1.1.1
and checked if the missing files came with it and that the automatic
deletion may have occurred. they don't (i couldnt find RFM.h and RFM.nc
etc) although I have seen them before and they do exist in the cvs tree
on the site. then i downloaded the missing files, but i still keep
getting the same errors.

so i updated both nesc and tinyos to their latest versions (1.1.7 i
think) from the tinyos website. even then, the updated file system does
not have the requisite RFM.h etc. files!

any ideas??
thanks for ur help,
karan

> DESCRIPTION
> -----------
> If you decided to update your cygwin lately, there is a good chance that 
> running "make mica2" or the like will cause some of the files used in the 
> compilation to be deleted.  This could be *.nc files, *.h files, and possibly 
> others.  Worst of all, the deleted files may not necessarily be in the 
> directory that your application resides in.
> 
> 
> THE PROBLEM
> -----------
>       When you update cygwin, the chain of compilation tools used to make a 
> NesC application will have problems recognizing improperly formatted file 
> paths.  As of now, I do not know which package installed by cygwin does this 
> (the cygwin package itself, or gcc, or others).  In any case, 
> /usr/local/bin/nescc calls 'cygpath -w' which produces path strings that are 
> no longer properly recognized by the compilation tools. 
> 
>       This affects:
> * nesc tools released with TinyOS-1.1 (rpm package Nesc-1.1-1w) and possibly 
>   ones later.
> * Cygwin downloaded after 7/2, and probably those downloaded a little before 
>   that (how far before?  I don't know).
> 
> 
> THE FIX
> -------
> * edit /usr/local/bin/nescc to use 'cygpath -m' instead of 'cygpath -w'
>   This occurs on line 201.
> * restore any files that may have been deleted.  The easiest way: use cvs 
>   update on your tinyos-1.x directory (and pray that no one committed broken 
>   files recently).
>   ~ The most probable place for broken files is in the tinyos-1.x/tos 
>     directory and  the directory where you tried to compile the
>     application.
>   ~ Losing files in the tinyos-1.x/tos directory may lead to random looking 
>     error messages (ex. if you lost tos.h, you will have a lot of strange 
>     errors complaining that only commands and events can be defined in 
>     interfaces in StdControl.nc.  See cygpath_blink_compile_error.txt for a 
>     sample of the standard_error that was generated when compiling Blink.nc)
