RE: setup.exe rebase patch
-Original Message- From: Jason Tishler [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Yes. I think that setup.exe based rebasing should be optional, but default to on. A flag in rebase.conf to control this would be good, along with a dialogue box and a tick :]. Not needed for the initial merge though. OK, sounds good. I'm not a GUI guy -- I hope that Gary will come to my rescue. :,) Ok, well lets get it into head, Gui can come later. (I can GUI too :}). I haven't tried LoadLibrary(), etc. but I presume that one of the APIs can. However, isn't this too little, too late? What can we do when the corruption occurs? Rollback to the copy in the archive? But, then this image will *not* be rebased. :,( I was thinking of the following process (for all dlls we attempt to rebase): 0) Check that it hasn't been rebased already. What is the purpose of the above? I already rebase DLLs into their previous space during reinstalls, if they still fit. Efficiency, it seemed obvious to not rebase already rebased .dll's. I recall you saying that it was fast, but I don't see it scaling to 100's of .dll's - which we are heading towards. 1) Copy 2) Rebase 3) Check for corruption - mark as occupying it's own prior space if corrupt and then stop, otherwise mark it's new space in the used list. What happens when the prior space is already taken? Good point. If the prior space is taken by a non-rebasable .dll (another thing to record :}) then spit and error, otherwise, shuffle that dll to the next free slot. Is the complete list approach above required for the first iteration? No. TODO lists are good. Give you something to do :}. Ah. Well within setup io_stream is the answer as they Huh? You didn't finish the above sentence. Something about, not sure what to do for non-setup version, perhaps link in appropriate .o's. What feels procedural is separate classes for serialisation. I _feel_ (And can there for be told to get my nose out of it) that a better encapsulation would be for the used list and free list to have [de]serialisation capability, and the config_file class to shrink to simply finding the config file, identifying the beginning of (say) a used list section, and then passing the buck. Would you care to comment on this as opposed to your current model? Ah, I see your point. I guess that it depends on how you want to slice and dice. I have used the load/save paradigm many times before and in general prefer it. However, in this case I don't quite think of the config file data as object state. What happens if there are syntax errors, etc.? I think that a config file object should deal with these kinds of issues (although is could delegate some of the responsibility to the list objects). Additionally, with my current approach I can change the config file format without affecting the list classes. But you can't change the list classes (ie add a new mandatory constructor parameter) without breaking the serialisation classes. I think you want the Memento pattern for this. Nevertheless, if you feel strongly, then I will change my perspective. It's not about feeling. It's about understanding. I agree that having the serialisation in the classes themselves is not great, as things get baggy. I hope that you agree that having external classes that require access to private data (ie config_file_writer) for serialisation is also not great because it breaks encapsulation (friends don't always break encapsulation, but in this case, IMO they do). The Memento class is designed to provide a solution to both issues. I'm suggesting I get my stuff out of your way :}. Your code seems traditional list based, which mine isn't (anymore), so your code could generalise to be a list/map template. OK, sounds good. I'll organise this shortly, and let you know when I do it. (After setup200202 gets into production). Rob

Re: Terminal Emulator Mouse
Chuck, Considering that Alec had just posted another question about RXVT fonts, yes I assumed that he was asking about RXVT BASH-in-a-DOS-box uses the Windows text treatment Click-drag or click + shift-click to select (or double-click for word-select); Right mouse with selection to copy; Right mouse w/o selection to paste All these mouse-based editing operations require QuickEdit mode to be enabled to operate as described without menu interaction Randall Schulz Mountain View, CA USA At 09:21 2002-02-28, Charles Wilson wrote: Randall R Schulz wrote: Alec, Had you but tried, you'd know the answer is yes Not necessarily What does Alec mean by default terminal emulator -- and what did you THINK he meant?

Re: rxvt custom fonts
Alec, Cygwin uses Windows' fonts The only exception I know of is the TeX software, which, as with all TeX software, uses its own fonts To select a particular point size, append a hyphen and a decimal integer point size to the font's name as used and reported by Windows in the Fonts folder (under Control Panels, at least in Win 2K) For example, here's how I start RXVT on a 1280x1024 monitor: D:\cygwin\bin\rxvtexe -g 110x89+485+-1 -bg #dd -fg #00 -fn Lucida Console-11 -sr -sl 5000 -tn rxvt -vb -e /bin/bash --login -i You may or may not have Lucida Console on your system I cannot recall if that's one of the fonts I downloaded from the MS web site or if it was a built-in font on Windows 2000 Randall Schulz Mountain View, CA USA At 23:12 2002-02-27, Alec wrote: Hi Under UNIX, I can do xlsfonts to see what fonts are available and then use those while launching rxvt with the -fn option Is there any way to find out which fonts are available to Cygwin rxvt?

RE: cron problem
Thanks Michael, I have read your post and I guess, I have started cron daemon first. I have WinNT 4.0 SP6a and I was not able to delete the cron directory. I have tried rm -rf cron and I have also tried deleteing the cron directory from WinNT but I couldn't. It was saying that Access is denied or file is being used. Then I asked my WinNT adminstrator to delete the cron directory and he was able to do it with little efforts. After delete cron directory, I first did crontab -e and put a dummy entry in crontab * * * * * date date.log and then it worked. Sanjay -Original Message- From: Michael Adler [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, February 28, 2002 7:50 AM To: Sanjay Gupta Cc: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: Re: cron problem I reported a related problem a few weeks ago and then reported a fix for this last week. Unfortunately, I haven't seen any response from the maintainers--perhaps I reported this to the wrong list... Did you start the cron daemon (as some other user?) before creating a crontab? If yes, then that other user (probably 'SYSTEM') owns /var/cron and you don't have write access. On Win2k, you can change the owner of that directory, and then add that user and give that user full control over /var/cron and /var/cron/tabs. Next time, make a crontab before starting the cron daemon. What I think should really happen is that cron should create those directories during installation so they are owned by whoever installed cygwin. Best of luck.

RE: Path Name Help
OK, then you want to review some good documents on basic tenants of UNIX and it's shells. This is neither an Oracle issue nor a Cygwin one. It's a cockpit error. For this particular issue, you can resolve your problem by quoting your path or escaping the backslashes. You may find that 'exp' allows you to use '/' for the path separator, in which case you can substitute it for '\' and not need to make any other syntax changes. But that's dependent on how strict 'exp' is with path separators. I personally can't say. Reading up on how UNIX shells works would be a good basis for your continued work in this area and save you the time of looking for a list to post future questions like this to.

RE: Is the Cygwin 1.3.2 DLL Win 2000 compatible?
Yes. The Cywgin DLL has always gone to great lengths to support all released versions of Windows, other than CE. Other than the obvious caveats noted in the FAQ entry which I referred you to, it's safe to assume nothing more or less. Historically, the Cygwin DLL has 'worked' with whatever Windows versions were current at the time. This has certainly been true for the last 5+ years conservatively. No need to fret. It's worth noting, however, that this list only really supports the current release of Cygwin. So if you have an issue with 1.3.2 that you want to post, the response you're likely to get is 'does it work with 1.3.10?' David (Starks-Browning), do you think it's necessary to update this FAQ entry so that it's clear that the Cygwin DLL has historically supported the then released versions of Windows?
