Re: assimilation cmd towards cygwin/bash

Time to get used to left-button copy, middle-button paste. Once you get a grip on the that, you've been officially assimilated! :-) Put this line in your cygwin.bat... rxvt -sl 1000 -rv -geometry 120x30 +sr -e bash -i Cheers, Nigel Stewart -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#uns

Those are 2 different paths to the same goal. Just to clarify my "goal" Painless development and deployment of software across Linux and Windows. Both open-source and commercial. Which, for me is already 95% there with Cygwin, and possibly even 98% there with Cygwin+Mingw Che

Technically, the ideal solution would be to link against a set of static libraries. I believe this would require some significant work to make it possible. OK, it feels like we're getting into a circular argument. I am not insisting that anyone do any particular thing to Cygwin. My inten

I would suggest that, if it is desired to promote the development of applications on the Cygwin platform, serious consideration be made to making it as simple as possible to install only those portions of Cygwin that the application requires. This means just the necessary DLLs, without all of the

However, just in case you need to hear it, it is true that you have to provide the sources for the cygwin DLL if you want to distribute it. There is always the MingW option via -mno-cygwin. (Perhaps stating the obvious, but just in case...) http://www.mingw.org/ Regards, Nigel Stewart -

James, Thanks for such an informative and detailed response. It turns out to be a FAQ for our OpenGL students who like to compile on Linux and Cygwin. http://goanna.cs.rmit.edu.au/~gl/teaching/cs549/index.html Do you mind if I recycle your posting? And yes, we hit the same "but why doesn't gcc

Hi Danny, Thanks for the hint. Does this mean that I need to rebuild libstc++? My impression is that this is a bug: Either wchar_t is supported, or it isn't, but that should be compile-error rather than link-error. And also, since I've done a "full" Cygwin install, what more is needed for wchar_t

Hello all, Having happily upgraded my Cygwin to include gcc 3.2, I've encountered a show-stopper: The linker can't resolve symbols involving wide C++ strings. Here is an example: #include #include using namespace std; int main(int argc,char *argv[]) { std::string test; } -
