Hello I have a CMake build script for my application, that among other things tries to build libvpx (open-source video codec, see webmproject.org).
libvpx library v1.3.0 compiles fine by hand when I open a cygwin terminal from the Windows start menu and type in the needed `configure`; `make` and `make install` commands. But when I try to invoke the cygwin shell from my build script, to run the same 3 commands with the -lc option to sh.exe (same command line), something happens and the build commands no longer work like in the real mintty terminal. Then my build fails. I believe there is something in the cygwin shell session or environment that I do not know how to set right when invoking $(CYGWIN_DIR)/bin/sh from my CMake script. Is there a way for me to start a cygwin shell session from the build script, that is identical to the one that opens in the mintty terminal from the start menu, and run some commands there ? I checked the environment variables and umask in the mintty terminal and in a /bin/sh session that I launch, they are the same in both cases. I tried using /bin/sh, /bin/bash, /bin/dash, with both --login and -c options. But the automated build always fails, and the manual build works.
