The meaning of the symbol depends on the source code you are compiling. Typically, preprocessor symbols are used to enable or disable features or modes of a program or library at compilation time (i.e. the option isn't configurable at run time). You need to either look in the documentation for the source package you are compiling, or failing that grep the source for U_STATIC_IMPLEMENTATION and try to discover from the source what it is doing. E.g.: grep -r U_STATIC_IMPLEMENTATION . in the source base directory. -- Barry -- http://barrkel.blogspot.com/ -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
Executable file is there but it said could not find
Hi, I'm new to cygwin. I've just intalled it for building my C++ using QT3 lib (installed inside cygwin). When compiling my program with 'make', I got these warnings: This should work unless it involves constant data structures referencing symbols from auto-imported DLLs. Info: resolving QString::shared_null by linking to __imp___ZN7QString11shared_nullE (auto-import) and executable file "abc.exe". It said "could not find abc" when I tried "./abc" but found with "where abc" command. How can I solve this?

release or release-2?
Hi. I make monthly DVD images of the Cygwin packages and have noticed that the images are over 7GB in size -- much larger than will fit on a single-layer DVD. The mirror I am using is rsync.mirrorservice.org::sourceware.org/pub/cygwin/. I notice that there are two packages directories on the mirror: release and release-2. Are they both necessary for an installation of Cygwin from CD? If not, which one should I be downloading?

Well yeh, that's what Cygwin *is*: a bunch of unix bin commands for windows! (Take a browse through the bash startup scripts, /etc/profile in particular does quite a bit of work, and uses regtool to detect your printer settings). > When it happened the first time I could have sworn it was regedit > instead of regtool.

"release-2" is for the upcoming and currently-experimental new Cygwin 1.7 series.

I did some more investigation and I still don't see how you were able to build this module without some kind of workaround. Empirically, I determined that setup.py is trying to find one of the following files: libsqlite3.dll libsqlite3.dylib libsqlite3.a in typical library locations (e.g., /usr/lib). However, sqlite3 only installs the following in /usr/lib: libsqlite3.dll.a libsqlite3.la So, setup.py fails for me in exactly the same way as documented in the above bug report. I was able to (temporarily) workaround the problem with the following hack: $ ln -s libsqlite3.dll.a /usr/lib/libsqlite3.dll Obviously, a better solution is to change setup.py to use the libraries provided by sqlite3 directly. I will try to affect this change. Any insight as to why your build is successful would be greatly appreciated.

I believe I figured out why your build was successful. You built against a sqlite3 that provided a static library (i.e., libsqlite3.a): $ tar -tvjf libsqlite3-devel-3.5.9-1.tar.bz2 | fgrep usr/lib/libsqlite3 -rw-r--r-- Yaakov/None 403280 2008-05-22 00:52 usr/lib/libsqlite3.a -rwxr-xr-x Yaakov/None 102334 2008-05-22 00:52 usr/lib/libsqlite3.dll.a -rwxr-xr-x Yaakov/None 909 2008-05-22 00:52 usr/lib/libsqlite3.la So, now we have two approaches to solve this problem: 1. release a sqlite3 with a static library 2. change Python to build against the import library Does sqlite3 have a maintainer? If so, then please release a new package with the static library included. This is an easy, short term fix that can be used, while I pursue the other (harder, more long term) approach.

You can do this in a Bash shell: $ myscript &> output & You may want to follow the above command with: $ disown so that the script continues to run when you exit Bash.

Empty screen when opening X Terminal
Hi, I am relatively new to Cygwin, I've tried to search through the archive but couldn't quite find exactly what i'm looking for. I've installed Cygwin few months ago, then recently when I try to open XTerminal, I am getting a blank screen. I've tried opening it through startx, startwinx.bat, startwinx.sh, however, still nothing inside the Xterminal screen. Below is the Xwin.log. It appears the errors I'm getting should be only warnings and could be ignored according to the forum. Any suggestions or ideas? Do I need to set something else up? i've tried to uninstall and reinstall again, but same behaviour.

If you get a "Connection closed by xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx" message when using ssh to connect to a Cygwin sshd server, and/or the event log on the server machine contains the error "sshd: PID : fatal: seteuid Y: Permission denied", the user account that sshd is running under probably does not have the "Create a token object" right. Note that if the account does not have this right, it probably doen't have other important rights as well.

cron without sendmail generates bogus logfile names
The "poor man's mailer" included as part of the cron package uses the following construct to generate part of the filename used in making log file names: DATE=$(date '+%Y%m%d_%H%M%S') It then generates the filename as: FILE="/tmp/cron.$DATE.$$.log" However, it seems to be tacking on a CR character at the end of the DATE portion which messes up the generated filenames. I cannot reproduce this behavior in sh running in an xterm window: [EMAIL PROTECTED] log $ DATE=$(date '+%Y%m%d_%H%M%S') [EMAIL PROTECTED] log $ echo $DATE 20080909_170639 [EMAIL PROTECTED] log $ FILE="/tmp/cron.$DATE.$$.log" [EMAIL PROTECTED] log $ echo $FILE /tmp/cron.20080909_170639.6588.log [EMAIL PROTECTED] log $ ls -l /usr/sbin/sendmail lrwxrwxrwx 1 oracle None 16 Jul 3 15:00 /usr/sbin/sendmail -> /usr/bin/cronlog* [EMAIL PROTECTED] log $ Here's a hexdump of the cron.log showing the spurious characters: [EMAIL PROTECTED] log $ hexdump.exe -C cron.log 2f 75 73 72 2f 73 62 69 6e 2f 73 65 6e 64 6d 61 |/usr/sbin/sendma| 0010 69 6c 3a 20 6c 69 6e 65 20 34 30 3a 20 2f 74 6d |il: line 40: /tm| 0020 70 2f 63 72 6f 6e 2e 32 30 30 38 30 39 30 35 5f |p/cron.20080905_| 0030 32 33 35 35 30 32 0d 2e 34 35 39 36 2e 6c 6f 67 |235502..4596.log| 0040 3a 20 4e 6f 20 73 75 63 68 20 66 69 6c 65 20 6f |: No such file o| 0050 72 20 64 69 72 65 63 74 6f 72 79 0a 2f 75 73 72 |r directory./usr| 0060 2f 73 62 69 6e 2f 73 65 6e 64 6d 61 69 6c 3a 20 |/sbin/sendmail: | 0070 6c 69 6e 65 20 34 30 3a 20 2f 74 6d 70 2f 63 72 |line 40: /tmp/cr| 0080 6f 6e 2e 32 30 30 38 30 39 30 36 5f 32 33 35 35 |on.20080906_2355| 0090 30 32 0d 2e 35 38 38 34 2e 6c 6f 67 3a 20 4e 6f |02..5884.log: No| 00a0 20 73 75 63 68 20 66 69 6c 65 20 6f 72 20 64 69 | such file or di| 00b0 72 65 63 74 6f 72 79 0a 2f 75 73 72 2f 73 62 69 |rectory./usr/sbi| 00c0 6e 2f 73 65 6e 64 6d 61 69 6c 3a 20 6c 69 6e 65 |n/sendmail: line| 00d0 20 34 30 3a 20 2f 74 6d 70 2f 63 72 6f 6e 2e 32 | 40: /tmp/cron.2| 00e0 30 30 38 30 39 30 37 5f 32 33 35 35 30 32 0d 2e |0080907_235502..| 00f0 33 32 30 34 2e 6c 6f 67 3a 20 4e 6f 20 73 75 63 |3204.log: No suc| 0100 68 20 66 69 6c 65 20 6f 72 20 64 69 72 65 63 74 |h file or direct| 0110 6f 72 79 0a 2f 75 73 72 2f 73 62 69 6e 2f 73 65 |ory./usr/sbin/se| 0120 6e 64 6d 61 69 6c 3a 20 6c 69 6e 65 20 34 30 3a |ndmail: line 40:| 0130 20 2f 74 6d 70 2f 63 72 6f 6e 2e 32 30 30 38 30 | /tmp/cron.20080| 0140 39 30 38 5f 32 33 35 35 30 32 0d 2e 38 33 36 2e |908_235502..836.| 0150 6c 6f 67 3a 20 4e 6f 20 73 75 63 68 20 66 69 6c |log: No such fil| 0160 65 20 6f 72 20 64 69 72 65 63 74 6f 72 79 0a |e or directory.| 016f I am baffled as to why this is a problem, and have seen it on two different systems both running Windows 2003 Server. cygcheck output attached... cygcheck.out Description: Binary data -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/

Re: 2.573.2.3 setup on Vista Ultimate fails: cygintl-8.dll was not found
Hello, I discovered what the problem was. I was trying to only download using setup.exe to a different directory than I was using previously. But since I already had Cygwin installed on my windows 2003 server, it didn't download anything I had already installed. I thought by selecting "download only" and then selecting "install" (at the top of the tree) for all packages, it would download everything to the new directory. But it just skipped over everything I already had installed. So when I tried to install on Vista over the network, things were missing.

Octave 3.0.1 exits without a prompt, no error message
I am having a problem that I have seen reported before, but I didn't see a resolution. I have cygwin installs on two machines, both XP SP2. This problem occurs on one and not the other. I'm not even sure how to go about debugging this. The problem: I run octave from the command line, and it exits almost immediately without an error. From previous postings, here is what I've looked at: /usr/lib/lapack is in the path (last item) cygcheck -c octave reports that version 3.0.1-1 is okay. cygcheck /bin/octave.exe returns d:\cygwin\bin/octave.exe octave -V and octave -x return nothing echo $? returns 53 I have tried setting the cygwin environment variable to TTY, NOTTY, and neither. (It is ntsec notty on the machine where octave runs successfully). I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling octave using setup.exe. Any suggestions for debugging this?
