Are ephemeral DLLs also needed for bytecode? If not, perhaps that cygwin should for now only support bytecode, even though that's of course suboptimal... I imagine that cygwin users expect primarily good tools such as editors and toolchains, with mingw used for production. At least that was my case when I used to code for win32, I'd use cygwin for tools and its cygwin-mingw cross-compiler to generate final executables. That was only C though and I didn't know about ECL then. But can other ECL cygwin users relate to the above scenario? -- Matt ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Simplify data backup and recovery for your virtual environment with vRanger.
