Fwd: bzr-gtk installation
Hello, I was wanted to try out the gtk interface of bazaar. I downloaded the file bzr-gtk-0.91.0.tar.gz from the bazaar website. There were no errors during the installation. When I issue the command 'bzr viz' I get the following error: bzr: ERROR: PyGTK not installed. So I thought their might be an issue with pygtk2. $ pygtk-demo Traceback (most recent call last): File /usr/bin/pygtk-demo, line 7, in module execfile(os.path.join(pygtklibdir, pygtk-demo.py)) File /usr/lib/pygtk/2.0/pygtk-demo.py, line 18, in module import gobject ImportError: No module named gobject Any thoughts?

A NULL pointer is never valid in C, and a segfault is what you get if you
try to make use of one (by dereferencing it). You get a NULL pointer back
from fopen when it fails; a lot of library routines do this to indicate
failure, because any other value could be a valid pointer. The other library
routines, such as fread and fwrite, will assume that you have done your error
checking and won't be passing them a NULL pointer, so they won't bother to
check what file pointer you pass them, they'll just go ahead and try and use
it. So if you get a NULL pointer back from fopen and you don't check for it,
your code carries on and passes that same pointer to fread, which tries to use
it as if it pointed to a real FILE object, and crashes.
The comp.lang.c FAQ has an entire section on NULL pointer, section 5. It

I think what the OP is saying is that if he adds the check for null,
then his code works normally, including the file read operation, (ie,
the pointer is not null), but if he removes the check, then he gets a
segfault. Strange behavior like this is typically the result of memory
corruption from earlier in the program. If you can post your entire code
(preferably a minimal example that exhibits the behavior), then we can
probably locate the problem.

GDB with VC++ components
Hi, I realize this is probably a GDB question, I sent a message to that alias but have not gotten a response. I am hoping someone on this list may have some experience with this and can answer the question. The basic question is: Should I be able to use GDB to load and execute a VC++ application, and debug DLLs that application loads that where built with gcc? Basically I have a program compiled with MSVC 6 (Release). This program loads DLL's and executes them. I have built a DLL using GCC [gcc (GCC) 3.4.4 (cygming special, gdc 0.12, using dmd 0.125)]. The program loads the DLL and executes it correctly (meaning that the dll is loaded and functions called). I need to debug the DLL, so I would like to attach GDB to the running process, then set a break point in my DLL and debug it. When I do this GDB seems to hang loading symbols.

Hang on, I misread you, my eye skipped over the bit where you suggest that
adding the check somehow makes the preceding fopen call succeed instead of
fail. However I still don't think that's what the OP was saying, unless the
subject line of this thread is terribly wrong, I think you just read a bit too
much into OP's phrase everything worked; I think that just means program
ran to completion /without/ a segfault.

Cannot access files and directories created in CYGWIN through WINDOWS explorer

High CPU usage on posix_fallocate call - CVS version
When my compiled version of rsync is using the posix_fallocate function Im getting significant CPU usage. The machine is a dual-core processor and Im getting 20%-25% CPU utilization during the posix_fallocate call. Machine stats Windows Server 2003 x64 R2, 4GB RAM (over 2.0GB free), fiber connected SATA RAID. Im wondering if the CPU spike should be expected? The file size Im creating is 77GB is size. The call is a simple posix_fallocate(fd, 0, total_size) where the fd is the file pointer and the total_size is the 77GB value from the file being copied. It also takes 20 minutes for the file to be created using this call. When the same file is copied under native Windows Im not getting the same CPU spike or the length of time to create the file even though Windows is pre-allocating the file. I state this not as criticism, just for reference. cygwin version is CVS from roughly 10 days ago. I compiled the cygwin components following the FAQ instructions no special settings.

Cygwin1.dll
Hi, Can someone help me understand this, its probably really straightforward but I can't find an answer for this. Why is it when I build the most basic helloworld.exe and try and run it I get told of a dependancy on cygwin1.dll? Why do I need this dll, and what how do I build to avoid needing this? Thanks.

Very handy if you occasionally want to distribute executables without cygwin1.dll. That would fall under use something other than Cygwin because you are not using Cygwin any more in that case, you are using MinGW. This means you can't use any POSIX emulated functions.

cygwin 64 a possible solution from the dark side
Hi From time to time I run out of memory using awk with associative arrays in cygwin. Up to now I rebooted Ubuntu 64, ran the file and returned to cygwin on xp64. I got a new machine with vista ultimate 64 (I had choices of other vistas NO XP)/ Microsoft provides a 64 bit Korn shell with awk (based on interix) which works with ultimate 64 which works up to at least 10GB of memory in awk. There are only about 150 tools provided but it is allegedly possible to build bash on interix as well. I have no idea about performance but its faster than rebooting. Robert (Bob) L.
