Oh jeez. I guess I was too much on my "try a snapshot" bandwagon today. Rereading I noticed that Martin mentioned that he was trying to dynamically load a Cygwin-enabled DLL. So yeah, the snapshot isn't going to help here. Without Cygwin-enabled Java or a kind patch to the Cygwin DLL, this isn't going to work, just as Igor said. But trying a snapshot was fun, wasn't it?! ;-) -- Larry Hall http://www.rfk.com RFK Partners, Inc.
