All of the standard libc functions like system() come from cygwin1.dll. Your system wouldn't operate without this dll. It is installed by default. >Is there any way to quickly find out which dll i need for a specific >function to run? Simple example: I included stdio.h and used printf and want >to know which dll I need now (this case is easy, but just if I wouldn't >know...) The standard functions come from cygwin1.dll. Otherwise, you can tell what dlls are used by your program via "ldd yourprogram". Remember if you distribute your program outside of your immediate company you have to adhere to Cygwin's GPL licensing. cgf -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
