Yes. >Or, does it mean that it is linked to the Cygwin dll, and that "depend" >tool that comes with Visual Studio is lying to me? No. The process may load Cygwin DLL at runtime. "depends" won't detect this. Of course, if I knew the specifics of the case you're concerned about, I or someone else might be able to better advise you. Is there any reason that you want to hide the details of the specific problem you're seeing?
