That's not a GNU linker error message. You need to build Cygwin programs with Cygwin tools. >What do I have to pass the compiler to get those functions? > >We use the ictl (intel) compiler, but gcc hasn't worked either. C library functions are in the in libc.a (aka libcygwin.a) but you need to be building a cygwin program using Cygwin's gcc for things to work properly. You can't just link in a library which contains fork into a Windows program. That won't work. cgf -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
