Note about the FAQ
Hello and happy new year, I've been installing Cygwin/X and I had a problem with the fixed font which was not found on XWin startup. I read the FAQ, section 8.4. Fatal server error: could not open default font 'fixed' I followed your tips and always the same message ... Then I used the font server and tried to locate a few fonts. What I found is that the font server couldn't locate -adobe-utopia-regular-r-normal--12-120-75-75-p-67-iso8859-1, but it could find it using the ending loosing match -adobe-utopia-regular-r-normal--12-120-75-75-p-67-iso8859-1* I came to start XWin back by specifying -adobe-utopia-regular-r-normal--12-120-75-75-p-67-iso8859-1^M as a font name. The same for the cursor font : cursor^M instead of cursor. This is probably linked with the initial setup parameter which allows to choose between DOS or UNIX end-of-lines. That would be great to mention it in the FAQ. Thanks a lot for your work.

For 7 of the 8 failures, it ended with the usual child copy error. The odd failure was one in which it hung with processor use at 100%, and windows reported cat.exe as the process that was burning up the cycles. Did you try rebasing? When I rebaseall to 0x6500, the child_copy error disappears. Both startxwin.sh and startx run fine. (I have yet to try -engine 2 to get the toolbar-X-icon-exit to work.) WHen I rebaseall back to 0x7000, the child_copy error does not return. I did not believe in the healing powers of vista until I saw that. What does return after rebasing back to 0x7000 is that startx sometimes hangs with CPU at 100% and cat.exe burning cycles. What will the longterm fix for the rebase issue be in the cygwin distro?

cygpopt-0.dll (libpopt0-1.6.4-4) is a 16 bit dll
Hello, i found that rsync, buided as a cygwin application, executes under a NTVDM process (the 16 bit subsystem emulation process of Windows). The Rsync.exe only dependencies are cygwin1.dll and cygpopt-0.dll and it seems that cygpopt-0 is compiled as a 16 bit dll. This is resource consuming especially if you have many instances of the same process (wich is my case). ¿Could be cygpopt-0 compiled as a 32 bit dll?

cygwin 1.5.23-2 : CREAD termios option don't work
Hello, I actually develop a program in C for reading and writing data on serial port. It works fine on GNU/Linux. I now test it with cygwin (Windows XP). I begin to set the port options, then I read/write information and restore port settings. I can write on serial port but can't read. For testing, I have tried with a working program : stty. It works fine with all options, but not with CREAD. $ stty cread /dev/ttyS0 stty: /dev/ttyS0: unable to perform all requested operations Can someone explain this ? I use cygwin 1.5.23-2 on Windows XP SP2.

gcc: installation problem, cannot exec 'cc1'
Hello, This is my first post here. I recently installed Cygwin again after my harddisk crashed and had to be formatted and all. I mainly use an ELF cross compiler for doing OS dev. So it was when I tried to compile a simple app using the normal GCC that I ran into this error. $ gcc -mno-cygwin -o hello hello.c gcc: installation problem, cannot exec 'cc1': No such file or directory I see that it occurs only when I use the -mno-cygwin option. I searched google. I found I have to install gcc-mingw package. I installed it. But the problem still prevails. I also see that there is no /usr/lib/gcc-lib directory. I found cc1.exe in the /lib/gcc/i686-pc-cygwin/3.4.4 directory. I tried adding that to the PATH. But then I get the error. ld: crt2.o: No such file: No such file or directory I have also tried reinstalling those packages (gcc, binutils etc.) . But it still doesnt work. I am also attaching the output of cygcheck -r -s -v , in case it helps. Please help.

When you specify -mno-cygwin you switch to using MinGW's version of gcc, an entirely separate version of gcc that is installed alongside the Cygwin version. This is why you must install the gcc-mingw-* packages for this to work. Incidently, I don't understand how you managed to at first install gcc-core but *not* gcc-mingw-core, since gcc-core lists gcc-mingw-core as a prerequisite in the setup.ini file (and so on for the other languages), so selecting one should have selected the other, and breaking this dependancy should have given you a big fat warning message. The cc1 that it is looking for when you use -mno-cygwin should be /usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-mingw32/3.4.4/cc1.exe. What does ls -l /usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-mingw32/3.4.4/ show?

command line arg expansion
I have recently upgraded from 1.5.12 to 1.5.23 and noticed something that
has me wondering.I compiled this on 1.5.23 and have run it under cmd.exe
on on 1.5.12 and 1.5.23:
#include stdio.h
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
int i, c;
for (i = 0; i argc; i++)
printf(arg[%d]: '%s'\n, i, argv[i]);
}
On 1.5.12:
C:\e '/.*/'
arg[0]: 'e'
arg[1]: '/.*/'
On 1.5.23:
C:\e '/.*/'
arg[0]: 'e'
arg[1]: '/../'
arg[2]: '/./'
arg[3]: '/.other/'
It appears that the runtime initialization on 1.5.23 is doing command line
expansion - is this correct? If so, is this change documented somewhere so
I get the full explanation?
thanks for any insight,

I get the full explanation?

RE: activestate perl on cygwin
Actually, being technical about this and looking at your OP there is no question there at all! Search for it. Look for a question mark. There is none. There is merely the sentence Please advise and that's what you got! Congratulations! I was wondering when someone would point that out; and for the record, ?. I can't use this pair of pliers to tow this boat. Please advise. - Well how about cha use a tow instead? Clever. Seeing as how you don't know what common tasks I am trying to automate, I don't see how you can presume to know the scripts do not have to be written in a Windows specific way. It's pretty much a given unless you simply insist on doing it in a Windows specific way. My operating system is Windows and therefore many of my applications are only compatible with Windows. In order to interact with the application through their SDKs, I need to use Win32 modules. I gave you an answer for your short term solution. If you insist on using a Windows oriented product such as ActiveState then fire up cmd and type in Windows specific path names to your Windows only ActiveState Perl scripts. Where's the problem? I'm lazy, it's inconvenient. Executing a script That appears in my $PATH will automatically expand using cygwin style pathing. This statement doesn't even make sense. What exactly is expanding? If you type myscript.pl 'C:\\Cygwin\\tmp\\file' and myscript.pl echoes out the first arg what do *you* get? That example I can simply handle in the application, but I mean more when I invoke the script. When it is in my $PATH and I type myscript.pl, the full path is expanded and passed to the interpreter with cygwin style paths. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/

Incidently, I don't understand how you managed to at first install gcc-core but *not* gcc-mingw-core, since gcc-core lists gcc-mingw-core as a prerequisite in the setup.ini file (and so on for the other languages), so selecting one should have selected the other, and breaking this dependancy should have given you a big fat warning message.

RE: activestate perl on cygwin
[snip] you only need the wrapper script to transform the script name from POSIX path style to Win32 style, and only if it's in the #! (shebang) line of a perl script. That was what my wrapper script was designed to do (as shown by the example usage). You do NOT need a wrapper to run the command above -- just invoke ActiveState perl directly. This is brilliant! I have no idea why I did not see it before, but this solves my problem in a very concise way. My wrapper script can mimic yours if the number of arguments is exactly 2. If they are greater than 2, then I will invoke Activestate perl directly making sure to use Windows style paths when appropriate (ie: perl -c file). On another, more apologetic note... I cannot believe I have not been kicked off this mailing list yet. Everyone has been more than helpful and I have just been a complete ass. Honestly, I could not tell you why, but for whatever reason it was kind of fun trying to find an angry retort. Maybe I finally snapped, all too often I post technical questions to forums or mailing lists without any solutions to my problems. I swear this is not me being sarcastic.

You don't happen to have anything set in the CYGWIN environment variable that would affect symlinks?

Hello, Come to think of it, I had removed the read only stuff when it drove me nuts with silly errors when I tried to delete or move files. But not on C drive.

Re: activestate perl on cygwin
Kevin T Cella wrote: Actually, being technical about this and looking at your OP there is no question there at all! Search for it. Look for a question mark. There is none. There is merely the sentence Please advise and that's what you got! Congratulations! I was wondering when someone would point that out; and for the record, ?. #! I can't use this pair of pliers to tow this boat. Please advise. - Well how about cha use a tow instead? Clever. Accurate and appropriate too! My operating system is Windows and therefore many of my applications are only compatible with Windows. Extremely shorted sighted I might add. I IM'ed recently with a former colleague of mine, fellow contractor since turned perm. The client, the largest privately held mortgage company mine you, had invested heavily in Clearcase and Clearquest software all running on Windows servers. They insisted up and down that all servers, and clients for that matter, will be Windows based. Thus the Clearquest team dutifully went off programming away hooks to Clearquest in Visual Basic. Anyways, my colleague now informs me that they need to translate all their VB code over to Perl because Linux is making inroads now. Sure they could and probably will base it off of ActiveState Perl (indeed Rational's Perl is based off of ActiveState) but the point of this little story is that you are short sighted if you believe that the only platform you'll encounter and thus need to deal with is Windows... In order to interact with the application through their SDKs, I need to use Win32 modules. As has been pointed out to you already there is Win32 modules for Cygwin's Perl. I gave you an answer for your short term solution. If you insist on using a Windows oriented product such as ActiveState then fire up cmd and type in Windows specific path names to your Windows only ActiveState Perl scripts. Where's the problem? I'm lazy, it's inconvenient. The lazy person will also cite convenience when using a plier as hammer. Fine. Just don't complain when it doesn't turn out as expected. That example I can simply handle in the application, but I mean more when I invoke the script. When it is in my $PATH and I type myscript.pl, the full path is expanded and passed to the interpreter with cygwin style paths. Although this is thorough off topic, perhaps you can explain it better to me as I don't use ActiveState therefore I don't see what you are claiming. Exactly which full path is expanded to what and passed to (guess) ActiveState Perl interpreter as, again, what? Is it $0 that you speak of that may be a Cygwin path? I'm confused however if it is $0 then why couldn't that also be handled in the Perl script? -- Andrew DeFaria http://defaria.com Clones are people two. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
Re: CR/LF problems after upgrade
On 5 Jan, fschmidt wrote: 3. Cygwin text mounts automatically work with either line ending style, because the \r is stripped before bash reads the file. If you absolutely must use files with \r\n line endings, consider mounting the directory where those files live as a text mount. However, text mounts are not as well tested or supported on the cygwin mailing list, so you may encounter other problems with other cygwin tools in those directories. I don't know what mounts are, or how to use them. With a freshly-installed Cygwin from a mirror that's a few days old, and with c:\cygwin\bin mounted textmode and a network share directory of bash scripts also mounted in textmode, using scripts that had CR/LF endings, each blank line in the script caused an error, and there were other errors too. In short, I don't think the text mounts are doing their magic correctly at the moment. (The scripts mentioned above did work correctly in much older Cygwins using text mounts.) philosophy I wonder how many centuries of human endeavour has been absorbed because of the decision to use CR+LF as line endings in DOS? /philosophy luke -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
Re: cscope -d can't find trailer offset if path contains space
By the way, Dave, if you're going to be poking prodding mlscope, I was wondering if you might have time to look at a problem with its interface with vim. Mlscope works find from the command line, but simply hangs when I do a symbol search from within vim. Vim works fine with non-ml-cscope, however. I believe I read in the cygwin archives that it had to do with the format of the records returned by the mlscope search. Thanks if you can spare the time to look at it. Otherwise, thanks for the thought. Fred Ma wrote: Thanks.

Given the sleuthing you've done I'll probably have to go back to the cscope owner at Bell-Labs. Will keep you posted. Dave [mlcscope maintainer for cygwin] Fred Ma wrote: Bug fix request submitted for cscope via sourceforge: This problem arose when using vim, but also appears when using cscope -d. I get the error cannot read trailer offset from file cscope.out. I browsed build.c to find that it is caused when reading in a single number with fscanf. To see what could be confusing fscanf, I found the context of the trailer offset from http://www1.bell-labs.com/project/wwexptools/cscope/cscope.html, which shows that the number to be read occupies a single line along with other space-delimited data, including the specification of the current directory. The space delimiting will get messed up if the current directory contains spaces, which is often the case in Windows and Cygwin (though it can also be the case in *nix). P.S.: It also happens with mlcscope. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
