If this command is getting its parameter from a previous command, make sure to sanitize the stderr that comes from Cygwin. Normally, this isn't a problem, but ant specifically included stderr and stdout together when parsing a command.
https://github.com/java-native-access/jna/commit/2714a017c9fada761e3d175d1e03f1d3bccaa14f This above example is using ant's "apply", but any ant executed output can suffer from this problem where stderr is mixed with stdout. It's not a cygwin bug, but rather a nuance with ant that surfaces with Cygwin. - tres.finocchi...@gmail.com On Fri, Jan 8, 2021 at 5:50 PM cygwinautoreply--- via Cygwin <cygwin@cygwin.com> wrote: > > >Hi, > > >While running an ant build cc task (cpptasks: Compile tasks for Apache > >Ant - cc (sourceforge.net) > ><http://ant-contrib.sourceforge.net/cpptasks/antdocs/CCTask.html>), when > >it reached the Link step I received the following output: > > >Starting Link > > > 1 [main] 5672 find_fast_cwd: WARNING: Couldn’t compute > >FAST_CWD pointer.
