That might produce false results, depending on the "mount -c" setting. Here
is a (working/stable?) remedy:
$ cygpath -m / | \
sed "s,^\([A-Za-z]\):,$( \
mount -p | \
sed -n '2s/^\([^ ]*\).*/\1/p' \
)/\1,"

I suppose you MEANT "echo" here... otherwise:

cygwin implementation of fork() eating all resourses?
After 5 minutes running this script i got a windwows XP
error: not enough system resourses.
<--
#!/bin/bash
while (( 1 )); do
ls > /dev/null;
done;
-->
This program leads to the same result:
<-
#include
#include
int main() {
bool fl = true;
while ( fl ) {
pid_t child_pid = fork();
if ( child_pid != 0 ) {
//parent process, continue loop ...
fl = true;
} else {
//child process, exit loop ...
fl = false;
};//end if
};//end while
}
->
At normal linux systems this code works well ... Is it a
bug?
P.S. Sorry for my bad english.

Problem: SIGCONT handler is not called (Cygwin or Bash problem ?)
Hi,
in the process of porting some software to the Cygwin environment i came
across a problem when trying to install a signal SIGCONT handler. This is
needed as the program puts the terminal into certain states that need to be
reset/set again when SIGTSTP/SIGCONT signals are received.
My problem is that the SIGCONT handler is never triggered (as it seems to
me). I could reduce the problem into the following code snippets. Note
that i have also a testversion using only the Posix calls (sigprocmask,
sigaction) but it behaves identically: the SIGCONT handler is never called.
I can (in the Posix version) remove the sigaction(SIGCONT,..) after which
the test routine stops at the kill() command after a SIGTSTP. Sending a
SIGCONT resumes the program after the kill and there i could continue with
the SIGCONT code but this is not really what i want to do (because i want
the SIGCONT also to work after a SIGTERM).
Questions:
1) is there a problem with the SIGCONT handling in CYGWIN ? Why is it never
called or is SIGCONT not delivered ?
2) what is the signal delivery scheme in Cygwin for SIGCONT i.e. what is
called first after issueing a shell - fg command ?
3) or do i miss something in my code here that would be specific for Cygwin
(i tested it on various other Unix platforms with success) ?
I'm on Cygwin 1.5.10-3, gcc 3.3.1-3 gcc-core 3.3.3-3, bash 2.05b-16,
platform = Win2000 Professional V5.0 Build 2195 SP4
Testsequence: gcc prog.c -o prog
prog
^Z
fg
--> bash types prog but the program blocks.

Tstp = signal(SIGTSTP, signal_handler); /* ctrl-Z, kill -18 */
Cont = signal(SIGCONT, SIG_DFL);/* fg after ^Z, kill -19 */
/* first get the char in the selected mode */
printf("Give a char:\n ");
input = getc(stdin);
if (input == EOF) printf("Input error\n");
/* reset signals */
signal(SIGTSTP, Tstp); /* ctrl-Z */
signal(SIGCONT, Cont); /* fg after ^Z */
}

{
int send_sig=0; /* signal to be sent */
sigset_t mask;
printf("\nSIGTSTP = %d, SIGCONT = %d, signal = %d \n",SIGTSTP,SIGCONT,sig);
switch (sig) {
case SIGTSTP:
printf("catching the SIGTSTP\n");
send_sig = SIGTSTP ;/*STOP; /* send a suspend signal*/
signal(sig, SIG_DFL); /* load default signal mode */
/* now we will install the SIGCONT handler */
if(signal(SIGCONT, signal_handler)==SIG_ERR)
printf("Error loading SIGCONT handler... \n");
kill(getpid(),send_sig);
printf("now after the kill\n");

Cvsnt doesn't work anymore after cygwin upgrade to 1.5.11
Hi, I just upgraded to cygwin 1.5.11, great that there is a new release. But, I use wincvs to get my cvs code, after the upgrade that doesn't work anymore, cvs just hangs. Doing just "cvs -z9 update" hangs forever, after downgrading to 1.5.10, it works again, anyone having an idea?
