  Absolutely so.  They're standard mount points created by setup that point
to the same place:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] /artimi/firmware> mount
C:\cygwin\usr\X11R6\lib\X11\fonts on /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts type system
(binmode)
C:\cygwin\lib on /usr/lib type system (binmode)
C:\cygwin on / type system (binmode)
C:\cygwin\bin on /usr/bin type system (binmode)
^
 NB.^ same as /bin given the location of /

Querry Related to cygwin

[Gagan Anand]

Hi,
   Please provide me link or site from where i can
down load complete cygwin software and intall on my
windows 2000 pc.

I had downloaded setup.exe but from my side it does
not connect to the sites during installation. So if
intially I can down load the complete software and
then install on my pc will be good.

Any help in this regard will be very help full.

Regards
Gagan Anand

  If setup can't access the sites, that's probably a problem with the
firewall at your side.  It maybe that it doesn't handle ftp connections very
well.  What settings did you choose on the  "Select connection type" page?
If "Direct connection" isn't working, but you are able to surf the web and
access ftp sites from internet explorer, then selecting "Use IE5 settings"
should make it work for you.

  If you really can't get it to work, then yes, you can indeed set up your
own server with the entire cygwin packages on it, and use setup.exe to
install from that.  See 
http://sources.redhat.com/cygwin-apps/package-server.html
for the instructions, but it's probably a lot more work than just figuring
out what's going wrong when setup tries to access those download sites and
fixing that problem.

GCC problems

Hello,

  I am trying to complile some programs but get this error message:

  Another package add these two lines:

  "*** The command '/usr/bin/gcc -o conftest -g -O2 conftest.c' failed

  Can anybody suggest how to fix it? Where do I set this variable?

 ^^

I'm assuming you edited this and that it actually read -luser32.  Obviously,
this means you're missing something.  You can determine what package you're 
missing by visiting  and entering the name of
the file you're missing ('libuser32.a' in this case).  It will tell you 
the package you need to install ('w32api').  Rerun 'setup' and select this
package for installation.

Sounds like you're missing more stuff.  If you can't figure out what's 
missing, follow the problem reporting guidelines given at:

>>Problem reports:   http://cygwin.com/problems.html


This should either provide the answer in the process of developing a 
problem report to send to the list or will give those here on the list
some information by which to evaluate your local installation's state
when you submit the report.

My tests would indicate you have your "DISPLAY" environment variable set

Thanks. Apparently something I installed set DISPLAY globally.
Clearing it in my cygwin.bat took care of it.

Please state the Cygwin-specific problem you're having.  If you're not
sure how to go about doing this, please follow the guidelines laid out
at:

>Problem reports:   http://cygwin.com/problems.html


Keep in mind that this is not a general help-desk for programming problems.
But if you have a Cygwin-specific problem or question, then it's appropriate
for this list.

  Ah, well, on further reflection I've decided that was a bit of a WJM
answer of me to give, so I decided to give a more helpful and friendly
answer.  So here it is:

OK, I get it.  WJHAFOT.  It has a certain ring to it, wouldn't you say?
And with such a catchy acronym, I think folks will really get excited

Hi, Bianca,

The OLOCA (or "Official List Of Cygwin Acronyms") is not a compilation of
word definition resources, but rather a set of (slightly humorous)
interpretations of the common acronyms used on this mailing list.  It is
not intended to promote any particular web resource[*], and any links to
other web sites are either incidental or prompted by the definitions of
the individual acronyms.  Adding arbitrary links will go against the
purpose of the OLOCA.  Therefore, I regret to say that we can't add a link
to your site there.
Igor
[*] Granted, the phrasing of the intro made it seem that it directed
people to a couple of particular acronym lists.  This (hopefully) has been
rectified.

Yes, it does have a nice ring to it.  However, as the OLOCA is a resource
of some permanence, I'll have to wait until we're settled on the
"Tuesdays" bit before adding it there...

[Richard Lister]

Hi folks

I'm trying to build a working expectk using the expect-20030128
source from cygwin. Tcl/Tk and expect build fine. I noted the
following comment in the file expect-20030128-1/expect/Makefile.in:

  # XXX Temporarily commented out until expectk is working again.
  #X11_PROGS = @X_PROGS@

Nevertheless, I edited the Makefile and managed to compile
expectk.exe, but it segfaults when run.

Googling produces quite a few comments about how it is
generally problematic to compile Tcl/Tk on cygwin.

Has anyone had any success producing an expectk binary?

Thanks
Ric

I'm sure you've probably already checked and considered DejaGnu.
Could there be a hint in its' source about getting expectk to run?
I know nothing of expectk or DejaGnu other than what is on the expect 
home page(http://expect.nist.gov/)
and the gnu page(http://www.gnu.org/).

Regards,
Ken

RE: How to access /dev/port?

[jackylam]

I take your advice and try that. It is really great but I got some
problem to use it.

I am using Windows XP. I rewrite my program to initialize my port by 
ioperm(0x378,3,1);

Before running my program, I install the ioperm service by:
ioperm.exe -i

My Windows XP complains fail to start the system service.

Any suggestion?

Thanks.

You could try the ioperm package...

bfd_get_section_size() undeclared

[Sean McCune]

Howdy all,

In building the latest source (checked out tonight), I'm getting the
following error, stating that bfd_get_section_size() is undeclared.  Was
something not checked in to CVS fully?


../../../../src/winsup/utils/parse_pe.cc: In function `void
select_data_section(bfd*, asection*, void*)':
../../../../src/winsup/utils/parse_pe.cc:67: error:
`bfd_get_section_size' undeclared (first use this function)
../../../../src/winsup/utils/parse_pe.cc:67: error: (Each undeclared
identifier is reported only once for each function it appears in.)
make[2]: *** [parse_pe.o] Error 1

You should install the service as administrator (with administrator rights).

GnuPG 1.9

[Robert Golovniov]

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

Hello Cygwin,

  Did  anybody  have  success  in  compliling  under Cygwin the latest
  development  versions of GnuPG (1.9)? I remember about a half a year
  ago  or  so  it  did  not compile because a function (funopen, if my
  memory  serves  me  right)  was  not  supported  in Cygwin. Anything
  changed  since  then?  I mean, to make be more precise, compiling it
  under Cygwin for W2K. Many thanks for help!

help me to compile the cygwinq.lib under VC with my program

[rudolf]

Hi ,all

I remember some one did but I don't know how to do it now.

I got the cygwin1.lib and crt0.lib 
(http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2004-06/msg00274.html) 
by the website instructions . but when linking my program , VC told me that it 
coundn't link _exit(0) beacuse the symbol is defined in other dlls.(mscrt.dll), When i 
ignore all the default libraries, there is WinMain16@ linking error.
 
 
In fact , I need system V function like share memory and  semaphore function , like 
semop, semat,shmget etc.  I want to get these functions from cygwin1.lib which can be 
used under windows.
 
Could do me a favor to  tell me the detail how can i do it? Any answers are  
appreciated.
 
Thanks in advance,
 
Rudolf
