postgresql /usr/include/sqltypes.h conflicts with /usr/include/w32api/sqltypes.h (was RE: broken?)

Looks like /usr/include/w32api/sql.h does an #include , which if you have postgresql installed, will read postgres's version when building under cygwin. Any chance the postgres /usr/include/sqltypes.h could be moved to /usr/include/postgresql/sqltypes.h or something along those lines? In any case

RE: broken?

I just tried compiling: #include #include int main() { return 0; } with: gcc -mno-cygwin and it worked fine. So it's a conflict with the cygwin headers sqltypes.h somewhere, I'll try to figure it out. -- Rafael -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem repo

Hi Igor I completely removed my cygwin installation and reinstalled. That fixed the problem. I don't know how things managed to get so broken; I think it was to do with running ssh-host-config as a second user perhaps, but I'm not sure of that. So, problem solved, although not elegantly. Thank

RE: How to execute bash file under /usr/bin despite setting PATH= "/us r/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:$PATH"

You're not curious enough. This is UNIX semantics and functionality. However, with UNIX, there is no way to access the contents of the actual "/usr/bin" directory once it's mounted. On Windows, there are ways (i.e. through Windows, etc). If you always access "/usr/bin" with Cygwin tools, then

Re: Cygwin crashed by emacs???

Since you say it occurs after modifying an ediff buffer, I suspect it's related to a problem that has annoyed me for some time. ediff is one of several emacs packages that produces buffers that 1) aren't associated with an existing file, and 2) are given names containing characters that cann

Re: Hello and cygwin quesiton

Dear Igor, I guest there were no improvements on the execute permission problem. But I just realized that "vi" under cygwin is smart enough not to give execute permissions to the files it writes out. It simply keep the original permissions. Why can't gvim do the same? Best, --Chee Igor Pechtchan

Chee, '/bin/vi' is a Cygwin program, and uses Cygwin system calls to create and write files. Thus, the permissions it gives to newly-created files are consistent with the other Cygwin apps. 'gvim' is probably a pure Windows program, which uses the Windows API calls directly, so it gives new file
