> My test program crashes once cygwin_dll_init is called. :-(( You need cygwin 1.5.18, which hasn't been released yet, for this to work. Try the latest snapshot. Your program looks fine, though you should do all your argv processing before calling cygwin_dll_init(), because it will trash your argv and argc. If you look at the cygload utility (in cygwin CVS), it shows how to add a new entry point to your program that will put the 4K closer to the bottom of the stack. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
