Doxygen

2002-09-28 Thread Ryunosuke Satoh
Hi

Making doxygen package completed!

http://www.geocities.co.jp/SiliconValley-SanJose/5153/cygwin-package/doxygen-1.2.18-1-package.tgz

including binary,source,setup.hint.

Please check!
It can make tex and html output.
(But without doxywizard, I don't use doxywizard.)

Note: the patch file is very big (900kb), because of my editing eps file.

Thanks,

I think just Devel would be fine. That's what automake and make are.

This package seems to work fine. The example requires qt so it 
doesn't really compile, but oh well. The point is to generate the
Makefile, which works. It doesn't seem actually to be limited to just qt. 

The exe is converted with perl2exe, does it actually rely on perl
in any way?

The license seems to be a BSD-advert-like (with TrollTech 
instead of UCB), which might cause problems if it is used 
by GPL projects, no? Might want to mention that in the annoucement.
Too bad, looks useful. 

Typo in /usr/doc/Cygwin/tmake-blah.README:

Making binary package:
 $ cd /usr/src/astyle-(VERSION)
   ^^
There are a couple other lines with astyle instead of tmake too. 

Also I don't like that just doing a make in the src directory actually
installs, but I suppose that's something to take up with TrollTech.

 DONE: $(X11lib) $(Xtlib)
 
 and at the end of the SharedLibraryTarget() stuff and other same 
 functions do this
 
DONE
 
 Which will touch a file called DONE and that's the dependency.

I've solved it in another way. The complete build process stays with 
libName.a even for shared libraries. But I install the import library
as libName.dll.a. This solutions is so simple, why haven't I thought of
it earlier? ;)

If the make world runs cleanly i'll send the new patch.

 Good point Alexander.
 
 On a side note: Why is it that XDarwin has so many people contributing 
 code and features (they seem to have an OpenGL-passthrough system now, 
 which is pretty amazing), while Cygwin/XFree86 has so few contributors? 
   This seems contradictory because Windows is on 95% of desktops while 
 Mac OS X is only on  1% (~20% of Apple's 5% market share are running 
 Mac OS X).
 
 That question will probably always baffle me.

Not really. The people running Darwin are mostly programmers or computer 
freaks which want to go other ways than the normal. They know how to code.
Most windows users are - in contrary - only users which want a working 
program. They don't like coding. They want a shortcut on the desktop which
starts the program. It must be easy and straight.

Or the other way: people who know to code are able to run a unix (and deal 
with all it's problems). They don't need windows anymore. So why should 
they code for windows?

Alan Hourihane wrote:

 When you've come to a decision on the patch, post a new one so I
 can take a look and then commit it.

There's a new one.

The cygwin.rules diff includes:

- new macro SharedLibraryName
  evalutes to cygName-Version.dll
- new macro ImportLibraryName
  evaluates to libName-Version.dll.a
- new macro ShortImportLibraryName
  evaluates to libName.dll.a
- new macro InstallLink 
  creates a symlink on install. Needed for symlinking ImportLibraryName() 
  to ShortImportLibraryName()
- new macro LinkImportLibrary
  creates a link to ImportLibraryName as xc/exports/lib/libName.a
- cleaup of of old macros to use the ShareLibraryName and ImportLibraryName
  macros instead of the old Concat3() composition
- added new ld option --exclude-libs All in MakeDLLProg. This should prevent
  exporting of symbols which were imported from another library.
- Some macros now also need the library version to pass it to the new *Name 
  macros. Added rev to parameterlists.
- Installing a link libName-Version.dll.a with name libName.dll.a  

The --exclude-libs ALL is needed at my system since Xft exported symbols
from Xrender. linking a program with -Xrender -lXft failed because of
duplicate symbols. Since we're using spec files to specify which symbols 
have to be exported, --exclude-libs ALL should be no problem.
  
The second path changes the order of the libraries. It is now -lXrender
-lXext -lX11. This fixes an error where some symbols from libX11 were not 
found when the linker resolved symbols from libXrender.

When you say 'terminal mode' do you mean you log in through telnet, open a
console window using the provided Cygwin icon, open a rxvt window or, open
an X window?  If it is the last, [EMAIL PROTECTED] is the wrong list, use
[EMAIL PROTECTED] instead.  For the others, I use a normal console
window and switch between it and windows applications continually
throughout the day with no problems; you may have a configuration problem
in Windows, but someone else on the list is likely to be able to help more
after you give more details.

 So, would it be possible to port the existing one, or should I just write 
 my own terminal swintching thing?

If you want it to happen, you will have to do it yourself or convince
someone on [EMAIL PROTECTED] that it is worth doing.  I have neither the

RFE - Cygwin setup.exe

2002-09-28 Thread Garth Dahlstrom

Hi all, 

I don't know if this is the right place to send this email, 
but I'd like to enquire about the possiblity of making the 
setup.exe program resizable or at least the packages selection 
part.

It would be cool to have a button to allow to pop-open the 
packages listing up into a resizable window.  

Maybe it's just me, but I try to avoid horizontal scrollbars 
whenever possible, I personally find them distracting.

Re: sysvinit for cygwin?

2002-09-28 Thread Randall R Schulz

Ariel,

If you system crashes, you should rectify that problem one way or another.

BASH implements the suspend command, so you might be able to work with that.

Recent email on this list (Subject: GNU screen package ??) in this list 
suggests that this program (screen, i.e.: 
http://www.gnu.org/software/screen/screen.html) might work for you and 
can be compiled to operate under cygwin with little or no work.

RE: Setup window size: a suggestion

2002-09-28 Thread Garth Dahlstrom

[was Re: RFE - Cygwin setup.exe]

My appolgies, seems folks have started thread on this already...

I see 2 ways to overcome the issue of the resizable installer/
package selection dialog size:

Option 1) add a button to the bottom of the package selection screen
that says 'Zoom' and make it open only the packages selection
related stuff in a new modal window that is bigger/resizable.

Option 2) rework the whole setup program to be resizable, this 
can be done using a lot of panels that are aligned something like
this (I've done this in Delphi before):
+-Form1 +
|+-P1-alTop+|
||+P3-alClient-++P2-alRight||
||| Choose...|| [Icon]  |||
||+++-+||
|+-+|
|+-P6-alClient-+|
|| ||
|| () Install from Internet||
|| () DL from Internet ||
|| () Install from Localdir||
|| ||
|+-+|
|+-P4-alBottom-+|
||  +P5-alRight||
||  |[buttons]|||
||  +-+||
|+-+|
+---+
Px is TPanel type, where x is the creation order using a gui.
al is the Align property of the Tpanel object.

If I had to choose, I would do option 1 cause it is really 
easy, and I'm lazy.  option 2 would be quite a bit more rework
to the way things are I should think.

Re: How does cygwin map / to c:/cygwin?

2002-09-28 Thread Max Bowsher

Jeff Perry wrote:
 I am very confused about how cygwin maps its root to the c:/cygwin
 directory.  I'm also not sure what /cygdrive is.

 When I type gvim /etc/passwd from bash, gvim comes up with an empty file
 called passwd in c:/etc (which doesn't exist).  If I try to write this file,
 gvim fails, which, of course, it should. (The gvim I'm using is the one
 compiled for NT).

 Can someone tell me why this happens?

The Cygwin POSIX paths come from the cygwin1.dll. So if your program hasn't been
compiled for Cygwin, it won't understand Cygwin paths.

 Also, when I try to tab-expand /cygdrive/c/..., bash can never expand the
 files.  For example, if I type
 $ cd /cygdrive/c/winntab, bash cannot complete the 't' and instead beeps.
 But if I complete it for bash by adding the t and the pressing return,
 bash will cd me to the c:/winnt directory.

 Can someone tell me why this is true?

Sounds like case clashes. See the readline info pages and add set
completion-ignore-case On to your global inputrc file or ~/.inputrc.

Max.

 The error message I get is Sorry, configuration information is not saved

 it still fails to create bookmark info at that location. (as per the man

Hmm, Windows usually names that directory Documents and Settings (notice
the s).  Just making sure you're using the right one (which you should
be, since you can create a $HOME/.ncftp), so just covering the bases here.

What is your $CYGWIN setting?  Are you running ncftp from a bash shell, or
from a shortcut?  If the latter, is your $CYGWIN set in .bashrc or
similar, or is it set in the Windows environment?

ncftp seems to extract the value of $HOME from /etc/passwd, rather than
from the current value of $HOME...  What is your home directory set to in
/etc/passwd?

Hope this helps...

Ok, tried modifying /etc/passwd and it works now. I suppose this should be 
documented. In the past, for all cygwin apps that I used, it was sufficient 
to have $HOME set and be done.

Thank you very much for solving my problem.

If I install this tool under win2000, then still can I

I tried to read your FAQ and also gone through

I first time came across this tool, so could you
please clarify this doubts

(1) IS there any simple way to read this files from
ext2 filesystem under windows 2000 environement ?
(2) If I install sygwin and then just set the proper

Re: Beginner- need help in understanding

2002-09-28 Thread Randall R Schulz

Nehal,

This one comes under the Cygwin is not Unix (nor Linux) category.

Cygwin does not include its own file system--it uses those of the 
underlying Windows operating system on which it runs. That means FAT 
(FAT-16 and FAT-32 as well) and under Windows NT, 2000 or XP, NTFS are 
generally available. Remote file system accessed via Windows File Sharing 
(which could include ext2 file systems via Samba, e.g.) are also accessible 
from Cygwin. If you installed other 3rd-party file system drivers on your 
Windows system, then the contents of such file systems would also be 
available in Cygwin, too.

Otherwise, no file systems are rendered accessible by virtue of installing 
Cygwin itself.

To answer your other question, installing Cygwin will not impair, impede, 
curtail nor foreclose access to any capabilities, software or facilities 
already installed and working on your PC.

  Px is TPanel type, where x is the creation order using a gui.
  al is the Align property of the Tpanel object.

So now you're a BigShot now? (clarification re. MinGW Glib)

2002-09-28 Thread Soren A

The topic is build configuration of software packages as done by many
authors/maintainers who used GNU Autotools as their build system. I was
challenged on a patch I showed readers of the mingw-users List, a
patch to the current glib 'configure.ac' file. My response, which I
crossposted to the Autoconf-Users List because of the salience of the
issues, may leave some readers with confusion (even if they don't know
it) about the intent of my statements (especially in view of some
portions with numerous typos ;-). I am going to try to clarify my main
point here. Many may react with disagreement; the views I am expressing
are expected to be seen as controversial. 

I wrote in [EMAIL PROTECTED] on Sat, 28 Sep 2002 
18:16:09...
  Almost no degree of invective would suffice to express how
  resentful I feel I justifiably am on account of this blindness or  
  warped perspective on the part of people who have become
  comfortable and dogmatic about Autotools. It has made people who
  write or maintain Autotools-based 'configure' scripts complacent
  and mediocre about the quality of their scripts and a huge part of
  the problem lies there. I cannot even blame the maintainers of
  autoconf and its chums to the degree that I blame the package
  maintainers out there for laziness and lack of empathy and insight
  into what they are inflicting on their users.

What I meant by that is explained from here.

 
So You are a BigShot now
--

This is addressed to people who have taken up maintainership of Open Source  
software packages (either as an inheriter or especially as an original 
author). You know better than anyone what sort of thought process you lived 
as you reached a decision to undertake this.

I've read a lot of defensive vitriol in the past along the lines of how 
DARE you criticize or complain about people who voluntarily and without 
compensation maintain Free Software for you, the Obviously Ungrateful User, 
to enjoy. I have a got a couple observations to make about that old 
schtick now.

First of all, in Hackerdom, the line between Users and Producers is far 
from cut-and-dried. Many users of somebody's package are authors or 
maintainers of other packages. There's mutual interdependency here.

Secondly there is the fact of human nature that there ARE compensations
for maintaining Free / Open (abbrev F/O from here) Software. They are
intangible compensations. Developing software is innately rewarding for
many people who do it (hopefully for those for whom it is not, they'll
eventually get into a different line of work more suited to them). There
is the justifiable pride of workmanship. Software is a creation of the
mind and it *does* things, useful things. Developing a good piece of
software is no different from inventing or making a good tool or
machine. 

Also, there are the opinions of peers (others who are 'in the know' about 
programming) and the regard one can come to be held in by producing a good 
software tool. If your tool is VERY successful, it might become the 
foremost of its kind, dominating an entire niche. If it becomes something 
that other tools rely on, then you'll be in the position of having others 
dependent on you (which is a fundamental type of _power_ in all realms of 
human affairs).

Some authors or maintainers also have philosophical beliefs and
convictions that concern a different, more abstract level than the
pragmatic what it does -ness of the package. Such people feel a sense
of being a part of an important and liberating movement in Human
history, that supporting a piece of the Free Software movement and Open
Source is promoting values and principles that can lead to a better
society and way of life for all people in the future. 

Finally there is an aspect of reward that's possibly more fundamental
than any of the others mentioned above. That is simply the sense of
righteousness or worthiness one gets from giving something to others,
from being the giver of the gift. Individual people vary in capacity in 
terms of to what extent they experience this or can be conscious of 
experiencing it.

So You are a BigShot now means simply to make reference to the fact that 
for all these reasons, something we finally have to admit is about status 
in the F/O Community being connected to authorship or maintainership of 
software packages. It is not just ME who says so; those who have read Eric 
S. Raymond will be familiar with this discussion. And BigShot refers not 
only to how others view you, but also to how you (in the secrecy of your 
own heart) view yourself.

This mutual-interdependency thing is innate in the philosophy of code
re-use that is a primary principle of GNU. I having been trying to
express something that I see more and more of that I think threatens to
rot the underpinnings of this F/O software world.  As I learn, I try
more and more packages, and am especially inclined as a consumer of
software

Nehal,

Perhaps I wasn't so clear in explaining the situation.

I don't think you're going to be able to read an ext2-formatted diskette 
without some other software. I don't know for fact that there is software 
for Windows that permits it to read Linux file systems (though I'd be 
surprised if there was not).

OK, out of curiosity I did a quick check on Google. Here are a couple of 
possibilities:

This is totally great news. I don't monitor the deloper list but it is great
to hear that my http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2002-02/msg00805.html
suggestion is being considered. I am totally sorry about the fact that I
couldn't get the time to work on it.

Thanks Igor,

Spamassassin + exim + cygwin

2002-09-28 Thread Jason D. Michaelson

I'm trying to get spamassassin to work with exim under cygwin. I've got
everything up and running fine, except for spamd. Its compiled, but when
I go to run it I end up with an ntvdm process running, using up all
available cpu time. This means that I end up running spamassassin for
each message that is received. When I do this, the following appears in
my exim logs:

2002-09-28 20:22:08 H36EGV-00039W-00 = [EMAIL PROTECTED]
H=corb.mc.mpls.visi.com [208.42.156.1] P=esmtp S=2831

2002-09-28 20:22:16 H36EGV-00039W-00 == [EMAIL PROTECTED]
R=spamcheck_router T=spamcheck defer (-24): Filter process failure

In the routers section of exim.conf I have:

# Spam Assassin
spamcheck_router:
  no_verify
  check_local_user
  # When to scan a message :
  #   -   it isn't already flagged as spam
  #   -   it isn't already scanned
  condition = ${if and { {!def:h_X-Spam-Flag:} {!eq
{$received_protocol}{spam-scanned}}} {1}{0}}
  driver = accept
  transport = spamcheck

In the transports section I have:

# Spam Assassin
spamcheck:
  driver = pipe
  command = /usr/bin/exim -oMr spam-scanned -bS
  use_bsmtp = true
  transport_filter = /usr/bin/spamassassin
  home_directory = /tmp
  current_directory = /tmp
  log_output = true
  return_fail_output = true
  return_path_add = false
  message_prefix =
  message_suffix =

Is there a command line option or something to spamassassin that I'm
missing that's causing the smtp connection back to exim to fail?

Thanks

I should probably mention with this that I'm using spamassassin 2.41 and
exim 4.10.

As I mentioned, in response to the above message, it's hardly a new idea.
The intent is not to magically allow two different versions of the DLL to
coexist.  I expect that, as time progresses, there will be more checks to
ensure that doesn't happen.  1.3.13 has new checks for this, in fact.

You don't install two versions of linux on your system and expect them to
interoperate at the same time.  Ditto, cygwin.

[Proposal] Moving user mount information to HKLM

2002-09-28 Thread Doru Carastan

This is in reply to Christopher Faylor's message
http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2002-09/msg01428.html. I hope it will show up
correctly in the mail list.

 ..  I expect that, as time progresses, there will be more checks to
 ensure that doesn't happen.  1.3.13 has new checks for this, in fact.

This makes sense only if RH views Cygwin as an Microsoft Windows OS UNIX
extension and not as a standalone UNIX emulator or VM running on top of
Windows.
 You don't install two versions of linux on your system and expect them to
interoperate at the same time.  Ditto, cygwin.It is like comparing apples
with oranges. I have not seen yet Linux running directly on top of a win32
host, nontheless cygwin running naked without a win32 host.  Everybody who
read the code knows that a debug cygwin1.dll or regular one built for a
different shared memory and registry can coexist with other versions.
What's wrong in having the latest 'stable' version of Cygwin and also
experimenting with the latest net release installed on the same computer.
One can use the stable one and switch to the most recent one when percieved
as stable.  Or get back to the version on which things where working fine.
It is all about freedom.  Why to deliberately restrict this? Please let me
know if there are any technical issues I am not aware of.Thank you,Doru

It makes sense in the context of many many many people having problems with
two versions of cygwin in their path or even just on the system.

Their problems aren't due to the fact that I'm being mean.  The problems
are due to the fact that cygwin makes some assumptions about the layout
of areas passed between processes, both in shared memory and as part of
the cygheap.

You don't install two versions of linux on your system and expect them
to interoperate at the same time.  Ditto, cygwin.

It is like comparing apples with oranges.  I have not seen yet Linux
running directly on top of a win32 host, nontheless cygwin running
naked without a win32 host.

The point is that cygwin is essentially an OS in the context in which
it is being used.  You don't run two OS's on the system at the same time
unless you're running some kind of micro-kernel or something.

I am trying to set the mind set here.  As the person responsible for cygwin
development, that's how we are progressing.  Now that you understand, by
way of analogy, how we are progressing, it should be easier for you
to comprehend.

If you want to use a Windows analogy, think two versions of
msvcrt.dll.  Having two of those in the path can also cause problems.

Everybody who read the code knows that a debug cygwin1.dll or regular
one built for a different shared memory and registry can coexist with
other versions.

Actually, it doesn't work all that well, even in this context.  We have a
problem with this RIGHT NOW, in fact.  Getting this working reliably is
a constant battle.  It was actually quite broken for months.  It's only
a little broken now.

What's wrong in having the latest 'stable' version of Cygwin and also
experimenting with the latest net release installed on the same computer.

Nothing at all.  Do it all the time.  I switch back and forth.  I actually
keep two versions on my system, since I know how to do that.  I just am
careful not to run both at the same time or to do so in contexts that I
know won't cause problems.

One can use the stable one and switch to the most recent one when percieved
as stable.  Or get back to the version on which things where working fine.

Sure, switch away.  Copy the cygwin DLLs, using windows utilities, into your
cygwin bin directory.

You realize that I, and any other person who develops cygwin, has to do
this all of the time, right?  I'm managing quite well without having to
run two versions at the same time.

It is all about freedom.  Why to deliberately restrict this?

Because getting it working reliably is hard and having two versions of the
DLL on the system is a technical support nightmare.  You obviously are not
reading the cygwin mailing list.

ncftp's lls requiring /bin/more

2002-09-28 Thread Greg Matheson

Another ncftp peculiarity is lls, which won't work because it
requires /usr/bin/more.

The manual says you can set the environmental variable, $PAGER,
but that didn't work for me.

I forced lls to work by linking /bin/less to /bin/more.
