When listing the contents of prc-tools-2.0.92-cygwin.tar.gz with both version 1.1.8 and 1.3.2 of cygwin1.dll the symlinks for libm.a and math.h discussed in the thread 'Makefiles, new pilrc and new build-prc one LAST time' are missing. However the following symlinks are there with both versions 1.1.8 and 1.3.2 of cygwin1.dll (on a Win98SE system): -------------------------------------------------------------------------- usr/bin/m68k-palmos-cpp.exe link to usr/bin/m68k-palmos-c++.exe usr/bin/m68k-palmos-g++.exe link to usr/bin/m68k-palmos-c++.exe usr/bin/m68k-palmos-gcc.exe link to usr/bin/m68k-palmos-c++.exe usr/bin/m68k-palmos-sdkfind.exe link to usr/bin/m68k-palmos-c++.exe usr/bin/multigen.exe link to usr/bin/m68k-palmos-multigen.exe usr/bin/obj-res.exe link to usr/bin/m68k-palmos-obj-res.exe usr/bin/stubgen.exe link to usr/bin/m68k-palmos-stubgen.exe usr/m68k-palmos/bin/ar.exe link to usr/bin/m68k-palmos-ar.exe usr/m68k-palmos/bin/as.exe link to usr/bin/m68k-palmos-as.exe usr/m68k-palmos/bin/gcc.exe link to usr/bin/m68k-palmos-c++.exe usr/m68k-palmos/bin/ld.exe link to usr/bin/m68k-palmos-ld.exe usr/m68k-palmos/bin/multigen.exe link to usr/bin/m68k-palmos-multigen.exe usr/m68k-palmos/bin/nm.exe link to usr/bin/m68k-palmos-nm.exe usr/m68k-palmos/bin/obj-res.exe link to usr/bin/m68k-palmos-obj-res.exe usr/m68k-palmos/bin/ranlib.exe link to usr/bin/m68k-palmos-ranlib.exe usr/m68k-palmos/bin/sdkfind.exe link to usr/bin/m68k-palmos-c++.exe usr/m68k-palmos/bin/strip.exe link to usr/bin/m68k-palmos-strip.exe usr/m68k-palmos/bin/stubgen.exe link to usr/bin/m68k-palmos-stubgen.exe usr/m68k-palmos/real-bin/g++.exe link to usr/m68k-palmos/real-bin/c++.exe --------------------------------------------------------------------------- So my guess is that there might be a problem with the build script and/or configure/Makefile generation for the libm directory for cygwin. If I find out some more I'll let you know. Ton van Overbeek -- For information on using the Palm Developer Forums, or to unsubscribe, please see http://www.palmos.com/dev/tech/support/forums/
