Hello. I am trying to prepare a series of cygwin dependant applications for distribution. The available documentation says all that is required is to distribute the cygwin1.dll with the apps. However when I tried this I had corrupted data returned from a read call.
After much experimenting I determined that when cygwin is installed there are some registry settings that effect the behavior of the library. I determined that the following registry entry will make my problem 'go away' ============================================================ Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Cygnus Solutions] [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Cygnus Solutions\Cygwin] [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Cygnus Solutions\Cygwin\mounts v2] "cygdrive flags"=dword:00000022 ============================================================ Can anybody point me to some documentation which explains the "cygdrive flags" entry: What flags are available? What effect they have on application behavior? Can they be set programmatically? etc... Any help would be appreciated.
