Linking dlls
Hello again, I made an error in my earlier question, so please forgive the repost. My question is: is there a way that I can link a dll function 'foo' to a routine in code called 'bar'. So, I have a dll, extdll.dll, which exports a routine 'foo'. I don't have the source for the dll. I also have a very large body of code, in which the routine 'foo' is called many times. However, in the code, the routine, which is actually 'foo', is always called with the name 'bar'. For reasons it is not worth going into, I can't change the code. I need to link the code, so that calls to 'bar' generate calls to 'foo' in mydll.dll. Is there any way I can do this? I had a go with linker scripts, but didn't get far. I have had a look at dlltool, which can do aliasing of function names in a dll, but I think this only works by modifying the compilation of the dll, which is not open to me, as I do not have the source. Many thanks for any help, Matthew -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/

Virtual memory Exhaust problem onWin98
Hi ! The sh-elf-gcc built from GCC 3.0.1 gives error "Virtual memory exhausted : Invalid argument" while compiling any small C program on Win 98 system. The toolchain has been built in cygwin 1.3.2 environment. This was tested on two systems with following configurations. System1 - Win98 running on Pentium MMX system with 128 MB RAM and 500 MB free disk space. System2 - Win98 running on Pentium IV system with 128 MB RAM and 19.5 GB free disk space. The toolchain works fine on WinNT and Win2000. Is this problem related to Cygwin or GCC-3.0.1 ? Using Cygwin's gdb I found that the error is coming when init_ggc() function calls alloc_anon() function and #ifdef HAVE_MMAP_ANON condition is satisfied. Any help will be appreciated.

[ANNOUNCEMENT] New on sourceware: units-1.77-1
I've uploaded units-1.77-1 to the Cygwin net distribution. The 'units' program converts quantities expressed in various scales to their equivalents in other scales. The 'units' program can handle multiplicative scale changes as well as nonlinear conversions such as Fahrenheit to Celsius. For example: units -v 16.5kg oz 16.5kg = 582.02037 oz 16.5kg = (1 / 0.0017181529) oz units -v 15.432miles kilometers 15.432miles = 24.835397 kilometers 15.432miles = (1 / 0.040265111) kilometers To update your installation, click on the "Install Cygwin now" link on the http://sources.redhat.com/cygwin web page. This downloads setup.exe to your system. The, run setup and answer all of the questions. Note that we do not allow downloads from sources.redhat.com (aka cygwin.com) due to bandwidth limitations. This means that you will need to find a mirror which has this update. In the US, ftp://mirrors.rcn.net/mirrors/sources.redhat.com/cygwin/ is a reliable high bandwidth connection. In Germany, ftp://ftp.uni-erlangen.de/pub/pc/gnuwin32/cygwin/mirrors/cygnus/ is usually pretty good. In the UK, http://programming.ccp14.ac.uk/ftp-mirror/programming/cygwin/pub/cygwin/ is usually up-to-date within 48 hours. If one of the above doesn't have the latest version of this package then you can either wait for the site to be updated or find another mirror.

No, it's not enough. The license is clear. If you provide a binary Cygwin you'll have to provide the sources for that exact version on your distribution medium, too. If somebody packages something up with a binary Cygwin 1.1.8, where should the user get the sources for that version? Not on our web or ftp pages, at least. That's the reason the sources have to be packed up, too.

talk(1) on WinXP -- perplexing behavior
Subject: talk(1) on WinXP -- perplexing behavior Hi folks, I'm having lots of trouble getting talk(1) to work correctly. I've read the documentation, man pages, mailing-list archives etc but to no avail. My Cygwin system is set up on a WinXP Box running ICF/ICS (Microsoft's Internet Connection Firewall and Internet Connection Sharing). The Local Area Connection (1) to the external Internet is setting its own external IP address as the "machine hosting this service on my network," and it is permitting UDF 518 (ntalk) to pass thru. This machine also has a second Local Area Connection (2) which connects it to the rest of my LAN, and thru which my other machines reach the outside world. The behavior of talk(1) is puzzling me. There are four cases I have identified: 1) When I disable Local Area Connection (2) a) If I receive a talk request on this system from a remote system, everything seems to work fine. I can reply as specified, and talk. b) If I initiate a talk request on this system to a remote system, the remote user sees my request. I see: [No connection yet] [Waiting for your party to respond] [Ringing your party again] When he tries to reply to my request he gets the error: [No connection yet] [Unable to connect with initiator : Address already in use (48)] so, we seem to miss eachother. 2) When I enable Local Area Connection (2) [THE DESIRED STATE] a) If I receive a talk request on this system from a remote system, I see the request. When I try to reply I get the messages: [No connection yet] [Checking for invitation on caller's machine] [Checking for invitation on caller's machine] ... and he sees: [Ringing your party again] [Ringing your party again] [Ringing your party again] ... so, again we seem to miss eachother. b) If I send a talk request on this system to a remote system, I see: [No connection yet] [Checking for invitation on caller's machine] [Checking for invitation on caller's machine] ... and he sees nothing, and has no idea I'm trying to talk to him, and yes, he is 'mesg y' Any ideas?

inetd -- service wont start at boottime on Win XP (add me to the pile)
Subject: inetd -- service wont start at boottime on Win XP (add me to the pile) Like many others, I can't seem to get inetd started at boottime as a service. Without much effort I can get it to setup as a service set to 'automatic,' but it wont start on its own. After I boot and login I have to start it manually. System is WinXP with latest Cygwin I've tried all the ideas I've seen from inetutils-1.3.2.README, e.g., --install-as-service cygwin1.dll in path this mailing list, e.g., Mark Himsley's add a dependency idea http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2001-11/msg01905.html Shawn Behrens' add a Description idea http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2001-11/msg01891.html erdelynet.com So far, nothing seems to work :( Here are my associated log entries from the "System" log (the error messages about inetd failing to start) and the the 'Application' log, showing me successfully starting it by hand. It turns out that I can't get sshd to boot-start either, probably for the same unknown reasons. That's also fine as a hand started service invoked with cygrunsrv. Ideas anyone?

The above imply that you may have set in motion the efforts of OpenLDAP developers to attempt to rectify a problem that no longer exists.

Please try the following: http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2001-12/msg00894.html and report back to the list.

RE: inetd -- service wont start at boottime on Win XP (add me to the pile)
I, too, could not make this work (in my case to start SSHD as a service), even after an exhaustive search of this list archive. What I ended up with was using the "Scheduled Tasks" control panel to schedule a "cygrunsrv" task. This task is scheduled to run "At system startup" and uses the command C:\cygwin\bin\cygrunsrv.exe -S sshd This apparently delays startup sufficiently that all of the necessary resources are available. I've heard a rumor (which I've not be able to substantiate but does fit my experience) that the portion of the OS that allows services to be started "dependent on Tcpip" has been "underdeveloped" (see http://www.queso.com/autoFrontier.htm).

Without much effort I can get it to setup as a service set to 'automatic,' but it wont start on its own. After I boot and login I have to start it manually.

Problems using AR utility
I'm new using Cygwin and have a problem using AR.EXE utility. I have a makefile that builds a program without problems. When I try to add some of the .obj files to a .lib file, instead of using the .obj's in the makefile, I get several undefined symbols. But these symbols are into the library (I can see them running nm) and link fine when I attach the .obj's directly from makefile. Could anyone give me a hint ? Thanks in advance.

The only pitfall in this is that you must not ALWAYS click twice, but sometimes only ONCE.

scrollable console window in Windows 98
Hi Slightly off topic this, but I am sure someone else will have come across this. I use cygwin on several diffent machines, some of them NT, and one Win 98 laptop. One of the features I miss on Win98 is the abiliity to be able to scroll back in the command window. This doesn't seem to be possible in Win98, does anyone else know differently, or know of an alternative command window that can be used?

Nah, this is the right list. Nobody has an answer, though.
Did you try `CYGWIN=... tty ...' setting?

Re: Problems using AR utility
No. I'm not using VC. I'm using Cygwin. But I mantain .obj and .lib names because I'm migrating these programs from Watcom to Cygwin, and the original names were .obj and .lib. Aditionally, I want to migrate them to Linux, too. So I want to distinguish the program version using different extensions, .obj and .lib for WNT and .o and .a for Linux.

This was discussed in September (see thread in gcc@ entitled "Bumming cycles out of parse_identifier"). It was decided that all known current Unix implementations have zeros until the next page boundary. Assuming EOF is indicated by a NUL is used as a lexer optimization.

cygwin and XP
Is cygwin known to have troubles with XP? Here is my issue: I run setup.exe from cygwin.com, all my packages are downloaded, I get a message that says mount completed successfully, and then setup disappears. If I re-run setup and try to install from my hard drive (using the packages that were all downloaded, apparently successfully), the same thing happens: mount completes successfully, and then everything quits. Also, is there a quick way to select all packages from setup? It gets tedious switching off all the "Skip" lines, especially when I'm installing from my hard drive. If there were a way of installing things manually, but not individually, that would be fine too.

Is your version of cygwin the AFAIR, I once read in the book "Code Complete..." by Steve McConnell (a MS programmer from the pre-windows days) a recommendation to set uninitialized pointers and memory to a known value (I think he used 0x for pointers and C0 for buffers) to aid in finding bugs of using unitinialized data areas. My limited experience with the MS debugger leads me to believe that this is a practice [at least some of] the MS kernel developers follow.

Can't spawn shell for authenticated user in SSHD
Hi, I want merely the ability to do limited remote WINNT command prompt sys administration tasks without exposing myself to the plain text and implementation vulnerabilities of telent server; i.e., I want to launch /winnt/system32/cmd.exe upon logging in via a SSH client to SSHD on an NT 4.0, SP 6 system. To that end I used the cygwin setup program to download and install from the Internet the openssh package. This process apparently worked correctly, as I can get components, including sshd, running. In fact, launching sshd in debug mode, I can use a ssh client on another machine and successfully (apparently, from the debug trace) authenticate to sshd. However, it looks as though when sshd proceeds to spawn my shell, there is some sort of a process launch/communication failure, with the following debug text emitted from sshd: Accepted password for Administrator from 35.10.77.61 port 1540 ssh2 debug1: Entering interactive session for SSH2. debug1: server_init_dispatch_20 debug1: server_input_channel_open: ctype session rchan 0 win 8192 max 8192 debug1: input_session_request debug1: channel 0: new [server-session] debug1: session_new: init debug1: session_new: session 0 debug1: session_open: channel 0 debug1: session_open: session 0: link with channel 0 debug1: server_input_channel_open: confirm session debug1: session_by_channel: session 0 channel 0 debug1: session_input_channel_req: session 0 channel 0 request pty-req reply 0 debug1: Allocating pty. debug1: session_pty_req: session 0 alloc /dev/tty0 debug1: session_by_channel: session 0 channel 0 debug1: session_input_channel_req: session 0 channel 0 request shell reply 0 0 [main] sshd 290 sync_with_child: child 300(0x148) died before initialization with status code 0x80 304 [main] sshd 290 sync_with_child: *** child state waiting for longjmp Disconnecting: fork failed: Resource temporarily unavailable debug1: Calling cleanup 0x414188(0x43e794) debug1: session_pty_cleanup: session 0 release /dev/tty0 debug1: Calling cleanup 0x41eb24(0x0) debug1: channel_free: channel 0: server-session, nchannels 1 debug1: Calling cleanup 0x4169cc(0x0) The /etc/passwd entry for the user I'm logging in as looks like this: Administrator:/c:/c/winnt/system32/cmd.exe and my mount environment looks like: C:\cygwin\bin on /usr/bin type system (textmode) C:\cygwin\lib on /usr/lib type system (textmode) C:\cygwin on / type system (textmode) c: on /c type system (textmode) It appears to me from the debug output that the cmd.exe process does get launched, but then something goes awry, and I have been unsuccessful in resolving this.

Most people with any UNIX/Linux background prefer the more powerful environment of a GNU shell. If you don't want to use it though, don't (your loss! ;-) ) If you're going to use make with DOS-style paths, you may need to set the MAKE_MODE environment variable to WIN32. Otherwise, the ":" for drive specifications won't be interpreted correctly. Cygwin, really, is just a DLL with POSIX emulation. While all the tools that come with the distribution depend on this DLL, you're not constrained to use them in any particular shell.

Generally, no. With the possible exception of additional configuration for 'make', which I noted in my response to this thread, Cygwin-enabled tools understand DOS-style paths just fine.

CVS and CR, LF
Hello, I have been using CVS successfully to maintain source code on a Linux based CVS server. The files have been edited with DOS applications and have CR, LF record terminators. The local source is on a Linux Samba share so it has been easy to use the Linux client CVS to commit, update with. So far so good. But, one of our programmers does not have Linux, so cygwin seemed natural. However, "cvs diff" thinks the whole files have changed, except for any file not "touched". After a "cvs update" or "cvs checkout", there is no problem. However, even after only a "touch" without modification (only modification time changed), cvs fails. I have tried many remedies found in Usenet archives without success. Any insight will be appreciated.

Proper "$HOME" setup? (/home or My Documents)
I checked the FAQ but didn't see anything on this (and did some mailing list searches, but didn't find it, hopefully it hasn't been covered already, or if so, point me to those if you please)... I have cygwin installed on a Windows 2000 machines. When I fire up bash, it has $HOME set to the "My Documents" folder for my user. But, /etc/passwd shows my home as /home/crb. And, when I use ssh, it says it can't create /home/crb/.ssh. There is no /home in my cygwin setup. So, my question is, should I create that, and move my .bashrc from My Documents into /home/crb, and then set a Win2k environment variable HOME to /home/crb? Or, is ok to use My Documents and I just tweak /etc/passwd, or What is the "ideal" setup?

Dear Cygwin: I have a rather odd problem when I try to run as.exe from the makefile for zip/unzip (I'm trying to add encryption support as per the instructions in the link given elseware on your web site). I keep getting a "permission denied" error. I also noticed the same error while trying to run zipinfo from anywhere - even the containing directory! Also, I dug up the following mailing-list submission (I'm including the top portion only, to conserve space). You may wish to x-ref with it.

Re: Proper "$HOME" setup? (/home or My Documents)
I would use the mount command to mount "My Documents" at /home/crb (after first running mkdir -p /home/crb). That way, you don't need to move anything.

Re: Reincarnation of "Permission denied running programs in other directories"
Well, I think I just made a giant step in the solving of this problem, but I still can't figure out what makes certain executables spit out "Permission Denied" when run. As it turns out, if you'll notice in the makefile output of my recent submission, the makefile makes use of /usr/i686-pc-cygwin/bin/as.exe. The reason it would run at other times (including when in the containing directory) is because the file being executed is actually /usr/bin/as.exe. Since the makefile specifically uses /usr/i686-pc-cygwin/bin/as.exe, this one is run instead of the other one and thus this is the one that "bombs" every time it's run. I hope this helps someone figure out the problem! = Sincerely, Aaron J. Outhier [EMAIL PROTECTED] __ Do You Yahoo!?

1.3.6: ftp client does not change directory for "!" commands
Hi, The ftp client executes all the "!" commands (e.g. !ls, !pwd, !(any unix commad)) with current working directory as users home directory. Even if the directory is changed to some other directory than $HOME, the command !pwd always returns value of home directory. It used to work right. I think the proper behavior is that the ! commands should be executed as if they are executed from the directory whch is the local directory of the ftp client i.e. the directory where the ftp command "lcd" took the clinet to. This is specially handy when uploading specific files from a directory. The "!ls" does not show local files form "lcd" directory but from the user home directory. I am attaching a session below. Plus output of "cygcheck -sv" The ftp client is part of inetutils package. Thanks in advance.

Current Events and the End Times - so what?
I can show conclusively in the scriptures that Jesus Christ is coming back WITHIN A CERTAIN DATE RANGE in the near future. Yes, people do not know the Day or the Hour of Jesus' return - I agree, "No one knows about that day or hour, " Matthew 24:27. or, 1 Thessalonians 5:1, "Now, brothers, about times and dates we do not need to write to you, for you know very well that the day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night." But consider this: Luke 21:31, "Even so, when you see these things happening, you know that the kingdom of God is near." What things? These things I explain in the booklet. I Thessalonians 5:2, 4-6, "For you know very well that the day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night. But you, brothers, are not in darkness so that this day should surprise you like a thief. You are all sons of the light and sons of the day. We do not belong to the night or to the darkness. So then, let us no be like others, who are asleep, but let us be alert and self- controlled." Revelations 3:3, "But if you do not wake up, I will come like a thief, and you will not know at what time I will come to you." Matthew 24:43, "But understand this: If the owner of the house had known at what time of the night the thief was coming, he would have kept watch and would not have let his house be broken into. So you also must be ready..." So, the believers in Jesus Christ will know He is coming very soon, if they are awake and ready. And I can show you the signs AND JUST HOW SOON! I have prepared a comprehensive study on the return of Jesus Christ, in a 32-page booklet, which I will email to you for $1.00 U.S.,or postal mailed to you for $3.00. Please send cash or check (preferred) to: Summit Bay 4820 Yelm Hwy, S.E. Suite B, #215, Olympia, WA 98503-4903. The Summit Bay ministry is focused on current events and the biblical end times - a "top to bottom" Berean-study of the Word. Be sure to include your email address on the envelope or a piece of paper and the study will be emailed to you promptly. Also included in the study: What is the Rapture? Why is there a Rapture? When will it take place? Who will not be in the Rapture? Israel at war with Russia. The Great Falling Away. The Mark of the Beast. Who does not have the Mark? And more.
