I just applied 20050905 and confirmed that the test script (tcsh_hang.csh) did not hang on it. However, my problem still stays.
It was a try ;)
With '-f' flag, dmake did not go forward.
The -f massively speeds up tcsh so you're most propably triggering a race somewhere in cygwin. Unfortunately I cannot reproduce it with my two systems, so you're on your own. It would be nice if you would find a short testcase to trigger this problem. With this info the cygwin guys fix a problem very fast.
bash> source winenv.set.sh bash> dmake [hang] At this point, I checked task manager and found two tcsh.exe. When I killed one of them (which use bigger memory), the build seemed to go on but stopped at 'extras/source/autotext/lang' module, and ended up with four tcsh.exe. This is reproducible for me. Is this observation helpful to figure out the situation?
Not really. Can you try to start the build with: $ cd instsetoo_native $ build --all instead and see if it also hangs imediately. We need to find a reproducible hang with a small testcase.
By the way, I restarted my build without '-f' flag and it is going good so far.
That is like running on 1/2 power. Volker -- If you like my work consider: http://www.scytek.de/donations.html PGP/GPG key (ID: 0x9F8A785D) available from wwwkeys.de.pgp.net key-fingerprint 550D F17E B082 A3E9 F913 9E53 3D35 C9BA 9F8A 785D
