Actually, mman.h uses caddr_t, not addr_t, at least in the cygwin 1.3.15 system I have installed. Nothing in /usr/include appears to use addr_t. My typedef of addr_t is for 64-bit int. > If the code is open source you can just change the addr_t typedef name (in your >source) to something else eg. addr2_t in all of your source files (a simple search >and replace). Yes, I renamed all references to addr_t to a different name. It's just a nuisance and appears to be unnecessary name polution. > > Elfyn > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > --- Michael Eager <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > >I'm porting a small program to Cygwin.
