wstring support in GCC 4.1.2 in Cygwin 1.5.25-11
Hi All,
I was trying to compile my code on Cygwin[1.5.25-11] with GCC[4.1.2],
but I am not able to build with errors on wstring.
I tried to test a simple application which uses wstring, like
#include string
#include iostream
int main( )
{
using namespace std;
const basic_string wchar_t s1 ( Labc );
wstring s2 ( Labc ); // Uses the typedef for wstring
if ( s1 == s2 )
cout The strings s1 s2 are equal. endl;
else
cout The strings s1 s2 are not equal. endl;
}
and on compiling I am getting the following error..
--g++ main.cpp -o main
main.cpp: In function `int main()':
main.cpp:8: error: `wstring' undeclared (first use this function)
main.cpp:8: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once for
each fu
nction it appears in.)
main.cpp:8: error: expected `;' before s2
main.cpp:9: error: `s2' undeclared (first use this function)
I searched on the net but could not get any thing recent or useful. Some old
forum threads[2005] say that
it was not supported.
Any advice or pointer will be of great help.
Thanks Regards
Vipin

[ANNOUNCEMENT] New package: hp2xx-3.4.4 - A HP-GL Converter
Hi The package hp2xx is now available with the Cygwin distribution: o http://www.gnu.org/software/hp2xx/ (Homepage) DESCRIPTION: The hp2xx program is a versatile tool to convert vector-oriented graphics data given in Hewlett-Packard's HP-GL plotter language into a variety of popular graphics formats, both vector- and raster-oriented. The various supported output formats include Encapsulated PostScript (EPS), PCX, IMG, and several formats intended to facilitate the generation of graphics within TeX documents. In addition, hp2xx output is printable on the HP Laserjet/Deskjet printer series, and it may be used as a HP-GL previewer on many platforms, e.g., X11 and DOS (VGA). Enjoy Volker -- To update your installation, click on the Install Cygwin now link on the http://cygwin.com/ web page. This downloads setup.exe to your system. Once you've downloaded setup.exe, run it and select Graphics and then click on the appropriate fields until the above announced version numbers appear if they are not displayed already. If your mirror doesn't yet have the latest version of this package after 24 hours, you can either continue to wait for that site to be updated or you can try to find another mirror.

Re: Windows ClearCase [Was: Cygwin Visuals]
Andrew DeFaria wrote: Gary Johnson wrote: Are you using ClearCase on Windows, or just ClearCase on Unix? We use both at work. I found that I couldn't execute cleartool edcs in rxvt because cleartool apparently requires a Windows Console. The editor (vim) ran fine, but the screen filled with a bunch of garbage when I closed vim. Are you able to run cleartool edcs in rxvt or ssh? One must remember when using rxvt that it uses ptys. Many Windows programs don't understand ptys. Cleartool is one of them. Try just typing in cleartool in an rxvt Window. You'll never see the prompt. Luckily I, and apparently you, rarely type in cleartool then enter in commands. You probably have your ct alias which is common. So then you do ct ls or ct lsview or ct checkout or ct co... etc. You then never hit the problem with ptys. ct edcs then introduces the problem because it effectively does: $ ct catcs /tmp/$$ $ vim /tmp/$$ $ # check that file has changed and offer to setcs $ ct setcs /tmp/$$ So then you could do, roughly, the above (which is what I do) or perhaps script it. Sorry for the late reply but thanks for the information. Was wondering why the ct cmd prompts don't appear in rxvt until after I hit return, then it's too late (but defaults have been OK so far). Just thought I would add that I have no problem using gvim as editor when doing ct edcs command in cygwin.

links broken during a backup (not restore), need more info on how they work to fix file bug with vendor
Hi, I believe my backup program (CMS ABS Bounceback) is mucking with the links in my cygwin and work directories when it is creating a backup. It doesn't appear to affect links created by windows, only those created by cygwin. I don't fully understand the cygwin links: there are some that end in .lnk and are close to windows shortcuts, and there are others that don't end in .lnk and start with !symlink. Both get broken. The files still exist, but I get the message /usr/bin/vi: /usr/bin/vi: cannot execute binary file. vi looks like a plain file and contains !symlinkvim.exe. Running vim works fine. It happened to me a few weeks ago and wasn't sure why. I re-installed cygwin fixed all the shortcuts in my working/compiled src directories by deleting and recreating them. Is there an easier way to fix this? I found one post in the archives saying try attrib +R, but that didn't help at all, on either kind of link. I've searched the mailing lists and google and wasn't able to find any help for my problem. I know people here will say it's a problem with the application, but if I go to the manufacturer they'll say cyg-what(?), our software works fine with windows.

compile problems on cygwin
The tarball at the perma-link: ftp://ftp.trading-shim.org/pub/local/trading-shim/attic/shim-080411.tgz is exposing a Cygwin macro definition failure to #undef, with the test which Bill outlines herein. I provide a copy to the Cygwin reporting address. On Fri, 16 May 2008, Bill Pippin wrote: It's entirely possible that the problems you refer to are caused by macros defined in various cygwin-specific headers. If the problem is indeed caused by earlier macro defs, running the preprocessor on the text and comparing the result with the original header may help you identify the name. Once you have that, a simple undef will probably solve the problem. You might want to start by trying to compile a simple, one-line test.c file of the form: #include glossary.h Yup -- I have replicated it locally, when I hit Bill's email. I get (in ./src. on an unpacked tarball): $ g++ rph_test.c In file included from glossary.h:48, from rph-test.c:1: functional.h:213: error: expected init-declarator before '' token functional.h:213: error: expected `,' or `;' before '' token $ This on a Win 2000 box fully updated as of this afternoon, against the Cygwin distribution mirrors. And so something in the Cygwin macro def's is not #undef'ing after itself.I assume the Cygwin folks know how they want a bug report and to track this down? I'll file it in their bug tracker, and track it with them, if you'll provide a pointer, Gabriel.

It doesn't appear to affect links created by windows, only those created by cygwin. I don't fully understand the cygwin links: there are some that end in .lnk and are close to windows shortcuts, and there are others that don't end in .lnk and start with !symlink. Both get broken. The files still exist, but I get the message /usr/bin/vi: /usr/bin/vi: cannot execute binary file. vi looks like a plain file and contains !symlinkvim.exe. Running vim works fine. It happened to me a few weeks ago and wasn't sure why. I re-installed cygwin fixed all the shortcuts in my working/compiled src directories by deleting and recreating them. Is there an easier way to fix this? I found one post in the archives saying try attrib +R, but that didn't help at all, on either kind of link. You need to use attrib +R on .lnk files and attrib +S on the plain-text links. On a side note, you can (re)create plain-text symlinks from the command line by using CYGWIN=nowinsymlinks ln -s FILE DEST. I've searched the mailing lists and google and wasn't able to find any help for my problem. I know people here will say it's a problem with the application, but if I go to the manufacturer they'll say cyg-what(?), our software works fine with windows. Just tell them that a backup program has no business clearing read-only and system attributes on any files. I would actually expect that they probably are just reading the .lnk information and ignoring the cygwin bits. Even if they preserve the read-onlyness of the .lnk file, unless they preserve the file in its entirety it won't be recognized. cgf -- 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: links broken during a backup (not restore), need more info on how they work to fix file bug with vendor
Thank you for the quick response Igor.
You need to use attrib +R on .lnk files and attrib +S on the
plain-text links.
I swear I tried attrib +R on both types of links earlier, but I must
have only tried the plain-text ones. It does fix the .lnk's as you
said. I'm using these two [slow] commands to fix up my system.
find / \( -name cygdrive -o -name proc -o -name dev \) -prune -o -name \*.lnk
-print -exec bash -c 'attrib +R `cygpath -d \{}\`' \;
find / \( -name cygdrive -o -name proc -o -name dev \) -prune -o -type f -exec
bash -c 'grep ^\\!symlink {} attrib +S `cygpath -d \{}\` ' \;
They scan through the cygwin root and any disks you have explicitly
mounted. I don't think it would actually hurt stuff on the windows side
of the disk, but I am trying to stay out of those directories. I'm
fairly certain the second one is safe everywhere, but the first one
may +R some non-cygwin links, if you have mounted windows directories.
This doesn't seem to affect windows; the shortcut still work in explorer.
The windows created shortcuts don't seem to work in bash with or without
the +R, which is fine with me.
Maybe someone can come up with a fancier find. I had to spawn a bash to
use the and delay the evaluation of the `cygpath {}`. There's a lot of
quoting to deal with spaces in filenames.

I would be more understanding if it was during the restore. There's no reason for a backup program to modify my harddisk (unless it's keeping status in its config/log directory). It should treat my disk as a read only device. -- See Exclusive Video: 10th Annual Young Hollywood Awards http://www.hollywoodlife.net/younghollywoodawards2008/ -- 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/

The openssl problem was caused by a Debian local patch that was installed to quell valgrind warnings. Valgrind supports only linux+glibc, so there would be no reason to apply such a patch to a Cygwin openssl, which is built OOTB from upstream sources with no changes.

You can speed things up a lot by only running cygpath once, e.g.:
(echo @echo off; \
find / -name \*.lnk | cygpath -w -f - | \
perl -ne 'chomp; print attrib +R \$_\\n') doit.bat
cmd.exe doit.bat

You're spawning way too many processes here (though you do have to run one
attrib per file). I'd go with something like this:
find / \( -name cygdrive -o -name proc -o -name dev \) -prune -o \
-name \*.lnk -print | \
cygpath -w -f - | perl -pe 's,\n,\0,' | \
xargs -tr0 -n1 attrib +R
find / -mindepth 1 -maxdepth 1 \
\! -name cygdrive \! -name proc \! -name dev -print0 | \
xargs -r0 grep -lRF '^!symlink' | \
cygpath -w -f - | perl -pe 's,\n,\0,' | \
xargs -tr0 -n1 attrib +S
(not tested, but should work barring typos).
