RE: Command 'more': missing dll cygpcre.dll [Attn more maintainer]
-Original Message- From: cygwin-owner AT cygwin DOT com [mailto:cygwin-owner AT cygwin DOT com] On Behalf http://cygwin.com/acronyms/#PCYMTNQREAIYR. Also, you can trim your quoted reply to the relevant portions, instead of replying with everything. As far as I can see, it's still available: http://cygwin.com/cgi-bin2/package-grep.cgi?grep=cygpcre.dll I have seen that, too. But setup does not offer this lib for selection. It only offers libpcre0 (=4.5-1) Is there another way, to obtain/download this dll? It's there - try unchecking the check box to show obsolete packages. But as more-2.11o-1 really does depend on libpcre, it needs to be recompiled to pick up the security flaw. Meanwhile, as a temporary workaround, I've updated the setup.hint to depend on libpcre until a new more is uploaded. This will make libpcre be picked up even though it is hidden by being obsolete. -- Eric Blake

Meanwhile, as a temporary workaround, I've updated the setup.hint to depend on libpcre until a new more is uploaded. This will make libpcre be picked up even though it is hidden by being obsolete. Actually, more-2.11o-1 was quite easy to build, and on recompilation it automatically picked up the newer libraries. Since more has not had an update since Mar 2002 (carved from util-linux 2.11o), but util-linux is now at 2.13-pre4, I'm assuming the maintainer is MIA, so I uploaded more-2.11o-2. I am NOT interested in maintaining this (I made no changes whatsoever from the -1 release other than the linked in libraries), as evidenced by the fact that I did not recarve more out of the latest util-linux. But at least the libpcre dependency is gone now. If there really is a maintainer, please step up and release more-2.13 sometime soon. But hey, not only do you get the libpcre security fix, but you can now do 'more 3-gig-file', since the old more was so old it was linked back when cygwin could not do 64-bit file offsets! -- Eric Blake (hopefully not stuck with being the more maintainer)

I'd actually prefer if we could symlink it to 'less' for the people who are used to it and drop the separate package. Anyway, thanks for the upload but I guess I'm still MIA. :)

Is my X Servier not fully started (Rel: 6.8.2.0-4)
Hello I've been struggling all day in what is a new world for me. I need to have GUI access to a Linux system that runs in a VMWare image in my Win XP + SP2 system. I downloaded the X11 package which I think contains what I require, and let it install. I am unable to get an X window (is that the right term?) to open in Windows. This seems to be a very common problem from my searches. However, I would like to establish first if the X Server is starting properly. I get the X icon showing in the system tray, but it's 'dead'. By which I mean there I no context menu for it - I get the impression from reading around that there should be a menu... even if only to stop it. If I let the mouse pointer hover over it, the tool tip says: Cygwin/X Server - 0:0 The only way I have found to end this is via the Task Mgr - I see 3 processes: Xwin.exe, xterm.exe, xkbcomp.exe, which I kill one by one. This doesn't seem right to me. Hence this question. I started X Server using startxwin.bat. Researching via Google, I removed some options to end up with run XWin -multiwindow Here is the XWin.log - that might show that initialisation has not completed, or a problem during startup. If this is working as designed, then I'd like to know of a smarter way to stop it, and I'll join a long list of people who seem to have initial problems in getting a Unix system to open an X window in Windows (and yes, I have tried stopping my firewall).

See the discussion taking place in http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2005-06/msg00559.html Cygwin tcsh does not share its hashing code with the Win32 version, it uses the same code as all other OSes are using. No other OS is using case insensitive hashing, so doesn't Cygwin tcsh.

Re: Callbacks from shared libraries compiled with cygwin
Brian Dessent wrote: Michael Spicar wrote: So I have two questions: 1) Is it possible at all to have callbacks like this? 2) If yes, must I have the import/export-lists? Yes, it's possible, but it's not considered great design. You have to use __declspec(export) on the symbols in the main .exe, and then produce and import library for that .exe, and then link against that import library when you link the shared library. But this will hard-code a dependence on the .exe name into the .dll, which means the .exe can never be renamed, and the dll cannot be used with any other .exe. A better alternative is to factor out the variables/functions that you want to access from both the main .exe and the .dll into another common .dll that is imported by both. Or change your API so that when main calls the function in the shared library it passes a function pointer as argument to the routine in main. Brian Thanks for your answers. And now it works. Initially I will choose the ugly solution and export all symbols. It doesn't matter right now, and the shared libraries I produce are anyway tight coupled to the application. But I will use your advice to improve the solution later.

Re: Bash login breaks if too many environment variables are set

For a medium number (~ 600) everything works fine For a larger number the output is: bash: /usr/bin/id: Resource temporarily unavailable ... i would think that you should declare your env variables in either your .bashrc or your .bash_profile rather than in a .bat file. It may solve your problem. I haven't had a chance to look at this further, but it is on my list. I tried looking in the Windows documentation to see if there is a limit on environment size for CreateProcess that you might be exceeding - all I can find is that an individual variable can be no more than 32k, but nothing about the overall environment size. Does anyone else know what limits windows imposes on the environment? POSIX only specifies ARG_MAX, which is the combination of command line and environment together. You might also want to experiment with 'export -p' in a bash where you are experiencing failures, to see if bash's list of environment variables is shorter than what you thought should have been inherited into bash. Being a builtin, it won't have then invocation problems like you are having with id, find, or sort. I also agree with Reid's suggestion - try sticking things into the environment AFTER bash is started, not beforehand. - -- Life is short - so eat dessert first!

For non-standard functions, google is your friend (for example, I recently patched newlib's argz_insert, which was not behaving like BSD's version; googling for 'man argz_insert' was what let me find out how BSD does it, since POSIX does not require it).

Command 'more': missing dll cygpcre.dll

A new day, a new snapshot, more testing required on the road to 1.5.19
Yes, I have another snapshot to test. I know that this is tedious but I thought it would be nice to have some concerted testing of cygwin before I make a new release. I know that in the long run, it will probably only have a limited effect because there are people waiting in the wings who are reluctant to test snapshots and who are hoping, magically, that their problems will be fixed. This is a fact of life with any software project. However, I *really* do appreciate all of the testing that we've seen so far. I hope everyone who has tested previous snapshots will continue to test this one and any other snapshots up until I eventually release 1.5.19. It would be particularly nice if package maintainers would test their packages with a snapshot. This is particularly important for Cygwin/X. Historically, we often seem to find about problems after a release over there. I've cc'ed the cygwin-xfree mailing list for this reason. Anyway, here, once again are the reporting instructions. * * * I'm asking, once again, for people to test the latest cygwin snapshot. The snapshot that is currently available should be very close to an official release of cygwin version 1.5.19. Please report success or failure to this thread. Please don't change the subject. Please don't start a new discussion. If you have a problem please report it using the guidelines from http://cygwin.com/problems.html. If you think you've found an error, please indicate whether this is a regression from 1.5.18. OTOH, if you've found a regression from some other past version then that is worth reporting, too. There are no guarantees that we will fix this problem for 1.5.19, unless it is an actual regression from 1.5.18, however. In general, just remember that we need *details*.

Best Regards, Douglas Schilling Landgraf Original Message From: Dave Korn Sent: 14 September 2005 18:02 Original Message From: Dave Korn Sent: 14 September 2005 17:44 Original Message From: Douglas Schilling Landgraf Sent: 14 September 2005 17:21 Hello guys, I have installed cygwin 1.5.18 ( 0.132/4/2 ) on Windows XP and it's working perfectly. Now, I copied *only* cygwin directory to *another* machine, when I click at cygwin.bat it doesn't work. What I need to do to make it work ? If it doesn't work, you need to fix it. HTH! P.s: That's a slightly obscure way of saying that it doesn't work is an inadequate problem report. There are many reasons why it might not work. Is your computer switched on? Is there anything in the batch file? Does a window appear? Does nothing happen at all? Etcetera. So, what actually *does* happen when you click it? And what happens if you open a cmd.exe (DOS) shell, cd into the cygwin dir, and try manually typing in the command lines from the .bat file one at a time? Oh, and P.P.s: copying the directory tree from one machine to another gets you most of the way there, but there won't be any mount points in the registry. The first time you run a cygwin app it should create the default set of mounts for /, /usr/bin and /usr/lib, but the best thing of all would be to run mount -m mount-cmds.bat on the source machine before you copy the dir tree across and then run the batch file on the target machine when you get the files there (will need you to have cygwin's /bin folder in the win32 path at first). Alternatively you could use regedit to export the HKLM/Software/Cygnus Solutions and HKCU/Software/Cygnus solutions trees to .reg files, and double-click them on the target machine to install them. cheers, DaveK -- Can't think of a witty .sigline today -- 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/ -- 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: Command 'more': missing dll cygpcre.dll [Attn more maintainer]
It's there - try unchecking the check box to show obsolete packages. But as more-2.11o-1 really does depend on libpcre, it needs to be recompiled to pick up the security flaw. Meanwhile, as a temporary workaround, I've updated the setup.hint to depend on libpcre until a new more is uploaded. This will make libpcre be picked up even though it is hidden by being obsolete. Actually, more-2.11o-1 was quite easy to build, and on recompilation it automatically picked up the newer libraries. Since more has not had an update since Mar 2002 (carved from util-linux 2.11o), but util-linux is now at 2.13-pre4, I'm assuming the maintainer is MIA, so I uploaded more-2.11o-2. I am NOT interested in maintaining this (I made no changes whatsoever from the -1 release other than the linked in libraries), as evidenced by the fact that I did not recarve more out of the latest util-linux. But at least the libpcre dependency is gone now. If there really is a maintainer, please step up and release more-2.13 sometime soon. But hey, not only do you get the libpcre security fix, but you can now do 'more 3-gig-file', since the old more was so old it was linked back when cygwin could not do 64-bit file offsets! -- Eric Blake (hopefully not stuck with being the more maintainer) -- 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/
How to convert a path to the correct case
Cygwin itself is case preserving, but case insensitive. Other tools are not so flexible on case. In my case I have some issues with incorrect case and my makefile. Consider if I had a directory /foo/BAR. Cygwin will let you actually do cd /Foo/bar and work happily. Pwd will actually return /Foo/bar instead of the real path in this case. It would be really helpful to have a way given a string like /Foo/bar to convert that to the real correct case /foo/BAR. But I'm having trouble finding an easy, convenient way to do that. As I said pwd doesn't do it nor does cygpath. One way that works is to turn the path into a pattern. You can do ls /Foo/bar* but that will return multiple strings if there is more than one file that starts with BAR. You can do ls /Foo/ba[r] but then how do I easily add the brackets into the string? I've tried various things with find, but none do the conversion. Anyone have a good idea how to do this conversion. -- 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/

But apparently I was wrong on how well adding the patttern to the path works. It only fixes the one part of the path that has the pattern. So what you gave will return /Foo/BAR and not /foo/BAR. In order to use the patterns I would have to make each part of the path into a pattern (e.g. ls /Foo*/bar*). One possibility I am working on is one that requires turning on the extglob shell option.

help on socket connexion
Hello everybody,
Could U help me please it's very important of course :(
I'm doing (trying exactly) a little client/serveur tcp programm.
the skeleton is classic (from server side)
main()
{
fd_set readfds, rmask;
struct timeval tv;
int sd;
...
sd = create_socket();
...
while(1)
{
FD_ZERO(rmask);
FD_SET(sd, rmask);
readfds = rmask;
tv.tv_sec=5;
tv.tv_usec=0;
if ( select(FD_SETSIZE, readfds, NULL, NULL, tv) )
{
if (errno!=EINTR)
{
/* socket gets something ! */
if (FD_ISSET(sd ,readfds))
{
// goto child
fork();
...
}
}
}
Everything works except the famous FD_SETSIZE (yes I use select()) limit to 64
Now If I run a sample client test with a loop which try to connect 64
times to my server,
it works... but with FD_SETSIZE limit, my server will hang after 64 fork.
Right, but now, always on client side :
If I try a loop with 32 connection, it's ok.
then I stop all my clients connexion - the children on server side die (ok)
If I try to connect again 32 times with my client by running my test
program again...
I meet again the FD_SETSIZE limit !!!
I suppose I've forgotten something on server side but where ???
please help me

Linking with comctl32 lib
Greetings, This question came up after a lively discussion with several other developers. Let me clarify my question. You build a standalong windows app and link in (statically) the comctl32.dll into your app. You then want to deploy your application, your application now contains parts of the dll but not all of them due to static linking. Does this constitute a violation of MS not allowing the dll to be redistributed. They state it can't be redistributed in standalone form. Just curious if anyone out there can provide an opinion..

You then want to deploy your application, your application now contains parts of the dll but not all of them due to static linking. No, it doesn't. The .lib you linked to is a stub. It doesn't contain any part of the DLL code, regardless of how much of the library you use. IIUC, the .lib under discussion isn't even of Microsoft origin; it's generated by a Cygwin or Mingw program. -- Gary R.

The two concepts (static and dynamic linking) are mutually exclusive. The only way that you would be able to statically link against comctl32 was if you had access to the static version of the library (NOT the DLL + import lib), which as far as I know, does not come with MS Visual Studio and is not generally available to anyone outside of MS. It's certainly not possible with Cygwin and w32api.

Re: A new day, a new snapshot, more testing required on the road to 1.5.19
Can you duplicate this hang at will or does it take a full run of an OpenOffice build to tickle it? So far (two cases) it hang in different places. It happened a few hours into the build :( But I'll try to reproduce a small testcase tomorrow. I got a third hang in the same spot as the second and was able to create a somewhat large testcase. The following is a reduced (well 9MB zipped, 54MB unzipped) testcase for a hang when building OOo with cygwin snapshots 20050913 and 20050914(both). To reproduce get hang.zip from http://www.openoffice.org/nonav/issues/showattachment.cgi/29572/hang.zip to c:\ and start loop.csh. $ cd /cygdrive/c/solver/ $ ./loop.csh loop Thu Sep 15 00:28:01 2005 (nothing, no output) . You will see in the windows task manager that cppumaker is doing something but then it will hang. cppumaker will vanish from task manager but a zombie perl will remain. This perl will not be mentioned in the ps output. If you CRTL-Z the script and start ps you will still see the cppumaker process.
