g++ -o pipetest pipetest.cc /usr/lib/libcygwin.a g++ -o pipetest pipetest.cc -lcygwin
g++ -static -o pipetest pipetest.cc g++ -static -o pipetest pipetest.cc -lcygwin
And no matter what, the resulting executable still depends on cygwin1.dll.
I would very much prefer not to have to force a completely static build because I would like to allow the loading of shared libraries... I just want the C-runtime library provided by cygwin to be statically linked so there is no dependancy on the .dll. Here's my quick test program if anyone would like to play with it...
Thanks, -Tim
----------------------------------------------------------- #include <string> #include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
std::string cmd = "ls -l";
FILE* pipe = popen(cmd.c_str(),"r"); do {
char buffer[1024]; fgets(buffer, 1024, pipe);
cout << "Text: " << buffer << flush;
} while (! feof(pipe));
cout << endl; pclose(pipe);
return 0;
