Hi,
I am working on a project where I had to recompile gettext using gcc 3.3.3. I'm using cygwin 1.5.12. It compiled without issues but when I went to run some of the programs, a windows dialog box pops up showing the following message:
"The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000005). Click on OK
to terminate the application."
see thread starting here: http://sourceware.org/ml/cygwin/2004-09/msg01101.html
heh, I actually had that thread bookmarked.
Anyway I took the suggestion and modified the libtool files. And it didn't work. I still got the same error message. What I did next was look for occurrences of "const struct", and noticed some in the programs that I had problems with. xgettext was one program and the long options struct was defined with "static const struct". When I removed the const from there and recompiled, the program worked.
I tried this with the other programs that I was having problems with, and they all started working. I'm still baffled but I have the programs working now.
