Greetings,
I have ported an X application to cygwin/gcc. It runs well under the X server xwin.
When I compile, I link up with libX11.
Then I end up my app being linked to cygwin1.dll since libX11 depends on cygwin1.dll.
I need to distribute this application, but I cannot make it open source. Those I distribute it to would download cygwin and use xwin.
I'm under the impression I cannot do this due to my app -> libX11 -> cygwin1.dll.
Is that correct?
I notice that only the X11 lib has this dependency (not Xm or Xpm).
I have tried using the -mno_cygwin flag to gcc to compile the app, but this still ends up with the X11 -> cygwin1.dll dependency.
Is there any way to compile an app that needs X11 and not be linked to cygwin1.dll? Is there another X11 available, for instance?
thanks! tim
