Weak attribute unsupported?

Hello, I am trying to compile an internal test suite built originally in Linux. Under cygwin, I get "multiple definition" errors for functions that have the "weak" attribute and are overridden elsewhere. Is this generally unsupported on Windows? I've tried searching the archives and haven't fou

BOY - WAS THAT PAINFUL. I did *finally* get it all working - but it sure seems like there's got to be an easier way. Some lessons learned: 1.If you were set up for inetd *before* you attempt to use xinetd, be sure to set the CYGWIN environment variable. CYGWIN='binmode

Never mind the question about setting the registry for "Allowing service to interact with desktop"... I found that a dword of 110 will do for the inetd registry entry. But I still had one question though. From the bash shell the ` (back ticks) work. But when I spawn a process and execute a shell s

getopt & output reordering (was: xmlto package install question)

Talking to Tim Waugh, the author of xmlto, revealed that the order of arguments doesn't matter on his system (that's Red Hat, I guess), whereas it matters indeed on Cygwin. Investigating it a bit further revealed that Cygwin's getopt differs from what he expected: getopt -- o: xmlto -o foo bar

OT: to be "nice", or not...

Scenario: I launch a task at normal priority (nice-ness 0) When this task has finished I wish to be paged... In other words; Question: Can I have one task be postponed while another one is still executing? Is this possible? e.g. a command sequence that might take a long time:
