Oh yes. That's right. I think I even resisted this patch, mainly because I could not believe that Windows was really that stupid. I have a hard time with the idea that I have to add Windows-specific code to gdb at this point. I had an ITS (In The Shower) experience today and realized that, of course, I could use the FindFirstFile technique to get the right filename and your email confirms that. This is a really hard change to make, though. It will be like typing in molasses getting this patch into gdb. It just feels so wrong. cgf -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
