pthread cancel event implementation

[Arash Partow]

Hi Chris,

I've been following your progress on the cancel event method
and functionality. and well I think you haven't thought the
implementation well through. To some degree, its like your
scratching your left ear with your right hand going over the
top of your head, If you know what I mean
Regards

Arash Partow

*That's* a helpful comment!  I'm impressed.  If you know better how to
implement this, why don't you role up your sleeves and just do it?

Nutty comments are easier, I guess.

Works fine here on XP. Check the FAQ's to see if C sleep() or the Sleep API
may not be supported on 98.

I did check the FAQ, but without success...
I am not very adept at cygwin and g77... Can you help me?
Thank you very much!

RE: GCC G77 Sleep Intrinsic

[kevin.lawton]

I can confirm that Sleep(n) intrinsic function appears to work as expected under 
Windoze 2000 (SP2). 
Could test under Win95 OSR2 and Win-Me this weekend if any use.

I am trying to uninstall cygwin. I have deleted the directory says the

How can I delete this log, then delete the service. I am uninstalling so

Is it a bash script, perl script, C? You would need to compile it if its
see. There are perl2exe apps for perl. I need some more info.

Re: setup crashes on certain packages.

[Matthew Wilson]

I am using setup version 2.416.  The problem is when I try to install
certain packages (all from my local directory), the installer just
crashes.

The packages that have caused this crash include perl, python, and
XFree86-base.

Does anyone have any experience with this?

Re: Problem with pthreads and signaling, behavior broken...

[news.gmane.org]

Hi all!

I've tested the latest CVS version (2003-12-12 11:00AM GMT+1), and yes
thinks are better, for me the ThreadTest seems to run correctly.

But I you use the compiled version to rebuild cygwin itself, no chance, make
die. Probably a similar case than my previous post "Bash wait indefinitely".
But now die instead sleep. One of my recursive makefile do sleep (6-7
seconds) when executing some bash command and return error 2, but if I
specified "SHELL=/usr/bin/bash -x" that maybe slow bash, no more problem.
Same with "strace make" no problem!

Keep working on signal's, threads, fork's, spawn's.

Thanks, Philippe.

RE: GCC G77 Sleep Intrinsic

[kevin.lawton]

Sorry to re-post on top of my previous one, but I've had another thought (on a Friday 
as well !). 
Given that the problem has shown on Win 98 SE, but seems okay on Win XP & 2K:   Maybe 
the clock 'tick' used in the Win 9x API is different to that used in the Win NT API ?  
I don't have access to a Win 9x machine at the moment, but maybe someone would like to 
try something like a 'CALL Sleep(2000)' in G77 under Win9x and see if it waits for 
around 2 seconds ?   This question seems to have stirred some distant memory in the 
darkest recesses of my brain, about Win 9x clock ticks being at milli-second 
intervals, but those recesses are far too dark to be able to remember clearly.   
Kevin.

rxvt and bold directory entries

I'm using rxvt and do directory listings with the

Certain files are not only colored, but are bold as
well. How do I turn off the bolding of certain
listings? I only want colors. The bold makes certain
entries difficult to read.

RE: GCC G77 Sleep Intrinsic

[kevin.lawton]

I would expect that this is an API issue, and therefore the same code (same 
executable, even ?) will produce the different results under Win 9x compared to 
Win-NT. Instead of trying to fathom it all out, it might just be easier to 'suck it 
and see'. 
Quite what other languages with a sleep or wait command do to ensure consistent 
intervals I am not too sure - maybe they are comparing successive reads of the system 
clock instead of counting clock ticks, or possibly detecting the platform and 
multiplying/dividing as appropriate.

Partially my mistake.

/usr/include/ncurses.h is now a symbolic link to ncurses/ncurses.h which
itself is a sybolic link to curses.h.  Both of them are created by a
postinstall script for compatability.  So, if you plug curses.h into the
search engine above, you get your answer.  You need
libncurses-devel/libncurses-devel-5.3-4.

However, a casual inspection of /usr/share/doc/Cygwin/ncurses-5.3.README
that turned up in your search would have provided the same information.
Also, you have still not acted on this suggestion:

IIRC, these are all relatively large packages.  Could there have been a

snapshot cygwin1-20031212.dll.bz2

[SMore]

I am trying to get a stable rsync to work between 2 windows 2000 boxes and
so far the cygwin1-20031212.dll.bz2 snapshot is working the best. Previous
version only seems to hang after "client_run waiting on ".

If there are no changes to be made the program exits fine.
If changes need to be copied, the copy occurs then a core dump results:

A core dump is always an indication of a problem.  Someone else has
reported problems with the snapshot, too.  I've managed to duplicate a
crash so I'll fix it as soon as I have a chance.

Out of idle curiousity, are you using CYGWIN=tty?  I made some major changes
to that code recently so I'd suspect that as a source of problems.

When I issue:

nothing shows up.


Here is a little more info about my setup if it is useful:

I am trying to rsync using ssh.
Note: one of the folders is also a windows share.
 
PC users could drop files onto a windows share, then rsync copies those
files over ssh to mirror it to a different box.

can't use windows with GoBack?

[Lester Ingber]

I just installed Symantec GoBack (to compensate for known problems with XP
Pro Systrem Restore).  Most everything runs fine under Cygwin.  However,
anything under XWin (including brining up XWin), runs unbearably slow,
about a factor of at least 100-1000 or more slower.  The System just
consumes all CPU?

I just paid $30 to Symantec to hear that they do have some problems with
GoBack with some applications running much too slow to use.  They're
"working in it."

By chance, has anyone else run into something similar and solved this
problem?

Thanks.

Lester

Please note that accessing password-protected shares from ssh won't be 
possible with ssh's public key authenticatio.  Use password authentication
or shares that don't require passwords to make this work.  I'm not saying
this is your problem now.  Just trying to head off a (future?) question if 
you're unaware of this issue.

 Not good for users that are unfamiliar with cygwin, uninterested in cygwin
itself or something else on that "line".

 Heh... that would IMO require setup.exe to be able to do batch runs. Not
possible, unless changes has been done very recently.

 I'm not keen of seeing this kinds of solutions being run on my computer as
it is "low spec" to put it mildly.

First of all; The "FindFirstFile()/FindNextFile()" thingie would probably
run for ten minutes, or even more. I would be sitting there wondering what
the heck was happening, and I would *not* be polite to the person who
created this misnomer.
 Second; how is this "FindFirstFile()/FindNextFile()" thing supposed to
handle the existense of more than one device? i.e:

$ mount | grep -re '^.: .*'
P: on /dev/dvd type system (binmode)
Q: on /dev/zip type system (binmode)
R: on /dev/dcdr type system (binmode)
S: on /dev/dcds type system (binmode)
T: on /dev/dcdt type system (binmode)
U: on /dev/dcdu type system (binmode)
c: on /cygdrive/c type system (binmode,noumount)
d: on /cygdrive/d type system (binmode,noumount)
e: on /cygdrive/e type system (binmode,noumount)
f: on /cygdrive/f type system (binmode,noumount)
g: on /cygdrive/g type system (binmode,noumount)
h: on /cygdrive/h type system (binmode,noumount)
i: on /cygdrive/i type system (binmode,noumount)
w: on /cygdrive/w type system (binmode,noumount)

is what I have available currently. Is that thing supposed to look through
all of it? If I connect my Digicams there will be three more devices to scan
through. What if it finds more than one cygwin1.dll, is it supposed to erase
the second one then?

Please, don't even mention this anymore, that's real bad programming IMO.
Not very likely to end up in something viable.

There got to be better, future-safe, flexible and extendable aproaches to
this. A good *attempt* at this was presented above IMO.

But I you use the compiled version to rebuild cygwin itself, no chance, 
make
die. Probably a similar case than my previous post "Bash wait 
indefinitely".
But now die instead sleep. One of my recursive makefile do sleep (6-7
seconds) when executing some bash command and return error 2, but if I
specified "SHELL=/usr/bin/bash -x" that maybe slow bash, no more problem.
Same with "strace make" no problem!

Keep working on signal's, threads, fork's, spawn's.

Thanks, Philippe.

Huh?  We've been doing things that way with our software
installer for a good 6-9 months now, using a version of
setup.exe built from a CVS snapshot.  If the user needs
Cygwin installed prior to installing our sofware, we
kick off setup.exe and let it do it's thing.

We do this so the end user at least has a fighting chance
of getting questions answered if they post to the mailing
list :-)

We're not up to installing 1.5.x yet, though.  We'll have
to wait and see, but I suspect that the sheer number of
packages has finally pushed it to the point where we'll
need to go with one CD for Cygwin binaries, one CD for
source.

password-protected vs password authentication

Would that be like a 98/ME box vs a NT/2000/XP Pro ?

Please note that accessing password-protected shares from ssh won't be 
possible with ssh's public key authenticatio.  Use password authentication
or shares that don't require passwords to make this work.  I'm not saying
this is your problem now.  Just trying to head off a (future?) question if 
you're unaware of this issue.

Ok.  Nothing too interesting there.  Oh well.

I uploaded a new snapshot that fixed the core dump that *I* was seeing.
It might be interesting to try, just for yucks although I haven't done
anything to fix a non-CYGWIN=tty case, AFAIK.

I think this is how the BitKeeper folks do it, too, FWIW.

No.  Password-protected means that a share can't be accessed by just anyone.
Password authentication means a user has been authenticated by Windows via
their password.  ssh public key authentication isn't password authentication
so the user you become in this mode has no network access privileges as far
as Windows is concerned.

It's been possible to do batch runs for a long time - 1.5 years IIRC.

Re: is there a screen for cygwin?

[Rafael Kitover]

Try my extremely modified version here:

http://www.io.com/~rkitover/screen-3.9.13.tar.gz

I haven't worked on it in quite a while, detach is still broken and it's
a few versions behind now, but you will have working screen sessions.

vtable with snapshot >=20031123

[Axel Naumann]

Hi,

I ran into a problem with gcc 3.3.1, cygwin snapshots>=20031123 (at 
least, probably also earlier versions). The binary built from the 
attached sources (with vtbllib.hpp's INLINE_CTOR defined) coredumps. It 
seems that the vtable is invalid, probably because a class's vtable is 
created for each translation unit (it only crashes if the c'tor is 
inlined; #undef INLINE_CTOR fixes vtbl.exe).

This did not happen with earlier versions of cygwin (1.4*); as far as I 
can remember even gcc 3.3.1 with cygwin 1.4* worked. This is why I 
believe it's a cygwin problem, not a gcc problem - but I'm really just 
guessing.

Could you tell me if you can reproduce this, and whether it's cygwin or 
gcc or me? If you need more info on my system please let me know (in 
general: everything up to date, yesterday's cygwin setup.exe 
installation except for the cygwin snapshot).

Axel.

Re: annoying dos windows when running some exe's under xemacs compiled for cygwin

[Ian Petts]

Hi Robert,

I am seeing the same sort of behaviour with GNU "screen" under cygwin.

[Also posted to the gnu-screen mailing list, with no reply as yet]

When running screen under Cygwin, for each window that is open in the
session, I get a seperate, blank MS-DOS box with the cygwin command as
its title.

So when I launch screen, it runs and I get an [annoying] DOS box pop up
in the foreground over the top of my Cygwin session. If I open another
window with 'Ctrl-a c' I get a second DOS box, etc etc.

For each screen window I close, the corresponding DOS box closes, and if
I close the DOS box, that particular screen window is terminated.

Here's what I'm running:

  $ uname -a
CYGWIN_NT-4.0 abc123 1.5.5(0.94/3/2) 2003-09-20 16:31 i686 unknown
unknown Cygwin

  $ screen --version
Screen version 4.00.01 (FAU) 18-Sep-03

I know this isn't normal, and is very annoying. Does anyone know what is
going on here?

Thanks,
Ian.

cygwin1.dll snapshot messes up screen under rxvt

[Frédéric L. W. Meunier]

I noticed the latest cygwin1.dll snapshot messes up screen
under rxvt. I haven't tried spapshots for quite a while, so it
may be an old problem. I know screen isn't part of Cygwin, but
it's very useful, even without the reattaching stuff. I'm using
my package from http://www.pervalidus.net/cygwin/screen/ . The
results with the default terminal (which I never use it since
copy / paste accents never worked for me) are even worse, and
also happen with 1.5.5, but here are screenshots with rxvt:

http://www.pervalidus.net/tmp/screen-release.png is with 1.5.5.

http://www.pervalidus.net/tmp/screen-snapshot.png is with
latest snapshot.

[ANNOUNCEMENT] New Package: libsmi 0.4.2-1

[Abe Backus]

This package contains a library to access SMI MIB information and various
utilities that are useful when you are working with SMI MIB documents.  If
you work with SNMP, these utilities are helpful.  For instance, I use
"smilint" to check my MIB documents for completeness.

The smilint website is http://www.ibr.cs.tu-bs.de/projects/libsmi/.

To update your installation, click on the "Install Cygwin now" link on the
http://cygwin.com/ web page. This downloads setup.exe to your system. Then,
run setup and answer all of the questions.

To install libsmi for the first time, choose "libsmi" from the packages
list, in the "Devel" category.

Remember that some mirror sites may not have updated before this
announcement is made. If your usual mirror does not have the latest version
of this package, please be patient or select an alternate mirror.

If you have general questions or comments, please send them to
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>. I would appreciate it if you would use this address
rather than emailing me directly.

Thanks!
-Abe
