Careful! This leads to a warning when building on 64 bit:
cygwin-console-helper.cc: In function 'int main(int, char**)':
cygwin-console-helper.cc:8:48: warning: cast to pointer from integer of
different size [-Wint-to-pointer-cast]
HANDLE h = (HANDLE) strtoul (argv[1], &end, 0);
^
cygwin-console-helper.cc:10:41: warning: cast to pointer from integer of
different size [-Wint-to-pointer-cast]
h = (HANDLE) strtoul (argv[2], &end, 0);
^
Note that strtoul returns an unsigned long. Mingw compiles
for native Windows, which is LLP64 rather than LP64:
mingw:sizeof(long) == 4
cygwin:sizeof(long) == 8
This needs fixing as well (use strtoull).
I appreciate the comments. These warnings have "always" been present. I will
submit a separate patch to correct them.
I didn't make clear the reason for this one-line patch to Makefile.in: A 'make
-j 6' over the Cygwin source tree would sometimes fail because the link step for
cygwin-console-helper uses a different gcc than the compile step did in parallel
builds. Can you accept this patch as-is for what it does for builds?
I will over time pay more attention to the make log and submit more patches for
the warnings I see flying by. There's maybe a handful of them, mostly in newlib.
