That's explain that I felt, as the child process was inheriting from the parent
environment everytime but not non-cygwin DLLs introduced through the LD_PRELOAD
in these child process... Is there a flag or a way to enable environment
variable to be propaged throught the Win32 environment as done before on
1.5.18-x or do I have to use DECLARE_CYGWIN_DLL(Entry) & other mechanisms for
having my DllMain called as I do specifics initializations for processes &
threads. but that's means compiling all my source containing also assembler &
lot of specifics things under gcc :(
Or do this code will help me for having Cygwin environment variables propagated
& set in my MSVC dll loaded throught LD_PRELOAD ? by calling the code below is
the child process will have his Win32 environment settings set correctly &
"retrievable" through GetEnvironmentString() & other Win32 std apis?
Or should I have also to call throught getprocaddress() (after having called
LoadLibrary on cygwin1.dll) some cygwin C std methods like getenv() for
retrieving cygwin environment variables without porting my code under gcc &
staying with microsoft dev studio 2003 ?
HMODULE h = LoadLibrary("cygwin1.dll");
void (*init)() = GetProcAddress(h, "cygwin_dll_init");
init();

thx in advance for your future answers,
