Hi-

I read up on mingw system. I now can use it with U++.

I know cygwin has mingw packages. I'd rather just leave the gcc package
set up without mingw and install mingw from outside of cygwin.

I really like cygwin and will try to use it for Tcl even if I don't get
the teacup system.

They recommend gnucobol with mingw, but I think gnucobol works well with
cygwin. I think it is because a mingw expert championed getting it
integrated with gnucobol for setup and plus cygwin is more posix than
mingw by far.

It is cool to have these choices.

Cygwin is the best 

thx. Have a cool upcoming weekend,
J. McNamara

now i remember gcc U++ error


Hi -

I couldn't place it off hand. Now i remember. U++ complained of os not
detected when under gcc without mingw. It doesn't recognize gcc unless
it is part of the self contained mingw.

So it seems my hand is forced to learn more about mingw as I like the
U++ framework.

I gues that is a project for tonight.

I nested the directory for ming with U++ too deep.

I get weird file paths like:

c:\path\to\mingw/mingw64/include

in my U++ when I add executable, include, and lib paths.

I never saw a path with mixed slashes like that.

Obviously I will try to reinstall so the install isn't as deep a path.

Well, that is just an observation on 2 environments I really like and I
can't do without: both cygwin and mingw.

thx. -
Jim McNamara

gcc frameworks U++


Hi-

I recently had a little difficulty with mingw in a self contained
environment (just the compiler) not the msys with mingw. I am wondering
does anyone here use U++ with mingw?

I got the postgresql tutorial to compile and link in U++ but I did so in
virtualbox on with linux.

I tried to keep things in a window enviroment even though gcc is not but
the mingw is kind of new to me.

Is it worth it to try and learn some more mingw?

I think the U++ environment comes with mingw and I am not sure if I can
use gcc outside of mingw with ultimate.

Cygwin should have all the packages that are in mingw though right?
I mean we aren't even talking msys being distrubted with that.

I will go back and retest U++ without mingw while I wait for a response
tonight for something to do on this cool night.

I am thinking that I did something wrong the first try with U++ and that
it will work with the mingw-less version.

thx. -
Jim Mc Namara

quick tcler's question: using cygwin


Hi tcler's-

I use cygwin a lot for emacs email with mu4e, gnucash, and gnucobol to
name a few. I'd like to use it for Tcl.

One requirement I am looking for is teacup/teapot.

If I need an extension that isn't in the packages from the official
cygwin repository, I'd like to get it maybe through teacup. I know I may
be able to download the source of whatever package I need but the
versioning may be easier through the tea system.

Is there a way to use the cygwin tcl/tk and get the teapot system?

I'd like to stay within cygwin environment.

If it is possible please let me know.

thx. -
J. McNamarac

Correct.

I'm not sure; Jon?


No, 131-1 is still greater than 1.7.5-1, because is 131 is still greater

For the moment, I've annotated the following package/versions as

However, this time-wasting pattern of dealing with the issue by end 
users

is not a good way.

A better approach would be to identify some common paterns of BLODA 
interference
and code a test which can detect the interference. This should be 
executed at
startup by the Cygwin shell so that a diagnostic can be displayed to the

Pasting from GNU/Linux into X11 Emacs running on Cygwin

2018-02-27 Thread Achim Gratz


The first paste from my GNU/Linux konsole session into emacs-x11 running on
Cygwin and displaying on the GNU/Linux display gets Emacs into a spin
loop.  I used to be able to C-g my way out of it, but since the latest
major Emacs update I need to send Emacs a USR2 signal, which produces
this backtrace:

--8<---cut here---start->8---
Debugger entered--Lisp error: (quit)
  x-get-selection-internal(PRIMARY UTF8_STRING nil nil)

  command-execute(mouse-yank-primary)
--8<---cut here---end--->8---

Further pasting into the same Emacs (with the same selection) works just
as it's supposed to work, so I am supecting something is uninitialized
someplace that the first paste somehow rectifies except for triggering
the guru meditation.


Regards,
Achim.

That point was already addressed by Jon and my retort was that the issue
could be resolved by supplying a symlink for the name without the version.

CR characters used to be automatically stripped on Windows (MSYS2 and
Cygwin environments). This is broken in 4.2.0.


You should not think of Cygwin as a Windows environment, but as a 
Linux-alike environment.  gawk on Linux does not automatically strip 
CRs, therefore gawk on Cygwin should not automatically strip CRs.


What MSYS2 does is different, and that environment is entitled to use 
patches to make interoperability with native windows program nicer, at 
the expense of being less like Linux.


Furthermore, the change in Cygwin predates the gawk 4.2.0 release, and 
was intentionally made in a coordinated release in Feb 2017 alongside 
sed and grep:


https://sourceware.org/ml/cygwin/2017-02/msg00152.html
https://sourceware.org/ml/cygwin/2017-02/msg00188.html
https://sourceware.org/ml/cygwin/2017-02/msg00189.html

following on from discussions about bash after ShellShock:

https://sourceware.org/ml/cygwin/2016-08/msg00097.html

Changing gawk back to automatically strip CRs on Cygwin would be a 
regression.



As Eli said, this change was deliberate. But this has several drawbacks.

1. The gawk info page states that:


Under MS-Windows, 'gawk' (and many other text programs) silently
translates end-of-line '\r\n' to '\n' on input and '\n' to '\r\n' on
output.


and on Feb 8 the following section was added:


Recent versions of Cygwin open all files in binary mode.  This means
that you should use 'RS = "\r?\n"' in order to be able to handle
standard MS-Windows text files with carriage-return plus line-feed line
endings.


Or mount your Windows text files under a text mount in Cygwin (so that 
such files already have \r stripped), or add steps to your pipelines to 
strip CR before handing the data to gawk.




This breaks compatibility between different gawk versions. What were
the reasons for this change in cygwin, and why was it pushed upstream?


See the discussion in Feb 2017 for rationale, but the executive summary 
is that Cygwin attempts to emulate Linux, silent corruption of binary 
files was deemed worse than manually having to explicitly strip CR when 
dealing with Windows text output.




2. Git and other tools automatically convert text files to CRLF on
Windows.


Not Cygwin git.  The problems you are encountering are more likely to 
happen when you mix and match tools from disparate environments, rather 
than when you use all tools from the same source.



This means that any awk script that runs on both platforms
must use RS = "\r?\n".


or strip the CR in any other means.  But the same is true of any script 
that must run on both Windows and Linux.

Cygwin binary mounts treat files as on Unix.

Cygwin does not try to be an MS Windows environment.
Cygwin tries its best to be a POSIX/Unix/Linux environment.

Use DOS files from a Cygwin text mount which does the conversion.

Compatibility with POSIX/Unix/Linux systems, except on a text mount, to allow
scripts which deal with binary data or embedded \r to work correctly, and
require scripts which work correctly, on Windows or Unix text as the application
provides, prefers, or ignores, and under Unix/Cygwin/Msys/Mingw.

Can anyone else confirm this?  My version just works but I can't update

Try as a simple test:
$ PATH=/usr/bin test=`echo "x86_64-pc-cygwin" | sed 's/-[^-]*$//'`; echo
$test

Maybe something in your environment is causing it and this would remove
the potential of something not Cygwin in the way.

Easily remedied by a symlink to the current version.  Many packages have
such a link as an aid to such scripts.

Versioning the executable to the version setup.ini expects can add
visual documentation for problems that someone might have based on a
private setup.ini file.  If someone downloads a current version of the
setup executable and points it to his older private setup.ini then
things break.

Versioning the executable also prevents the user from having to guess
which version of setup-x86[_64].exe is sitting in his downloads folder
when he has more than one.  Windows adds its own versioning indicators
which is simply nothing more than trying to avoid file name collision
which makes it difficult to determine which version of the file it
actually is.

Versioning the executable is more in line with other open source
projects that version the files it delivers to the version being
released.  I am aware that this anomaly with the setup executable has
been in play for many years but that doesn't mean that it is correct to
continue it.

_imp__environ?  Shouldn't that be _imp_environ for Cygwin?
_imp__environ to me indicates the VC version of char **_environ instead.
 Is the correct header being used?

yes, it is sad that you tricked him into doing that. by doing that youve now
rebroke something else:

and while your gripe can by fixed by simply doing "awk something | tr -d '\r'",
the Awk issue that I presented (and that was properly fixed) is now broken again
with Alexpux/MSYS2-packages and git-for-windows/git.

so because of your refusal to add an extra pipe on your command line
(or just do text mounts), portable Awk scripts are broken again on those
platforms.

[ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: gawk-4.2.1-1

I've updated the gawk package to 4.2.1-1.

This is a new upstream release.

Changes from 4.2.0 to 4.2.1
---

1. Support for OS/2 has been brought up to date.  This support was
   accidentally omitted from the initial 4.2 release, for which
   we apologize.

2. The manual received a number of updates to make it format better
   for PDF.

3. A new configure option, --enable-versioned-dir, causes the directory
   holding extensions to include the API version in its name.

4. extension/configure.ac has been improved considerably.

5. In MPFR mode, When ROUNDMODE changes, string values for numerically
   type values will be redone.

6. The various 'inplace' tests now pass on modern BSD systems.

7. A number of bugs, some of them quite significant, have been fixed.
   See the ChangeLog for details.


Have fun,
Corinna

You know that the 4.2.1 upstream release was only 2 days ago?

You may want to give the maintainer a bit of time to prepare the
downstream release rather than kicking already while the release
is not even cooled down.

No worries.  I'll wait patiently for a newlib patch.

Sorry, we only support the current Cygwin build and keep the next older
version as fallback.  It's just not feasible to support version branches
like the Linux kernel does, given the low number of active participants
in this project.

Nothing keeps you from building your own, though.  The patches should
apply mostly clean.

I see. This is however not true for MSYS2.

Then I guess we will just keep this as a patch for MSYS2, which is
already merged[1]?

High Corinna,

is it possible to get the patched cygwin1.dll for Cygwin 2.5.1? I have to 
support several older Win XP SP3 boxes.

Thanks for testing.  Please note that this should work most of the time, but is 
still not 100% foolproof.  There's a systematic race between checking existing 
connections and calling bind which can't be easily worked around by Cygwin.  
Still, should be better than before :}

Cygwin is not "Windows", it is "sort of Linux".
Besides, this kind silent mangling is dangerous to an unsuspecting user.

[ANNOUNCEMENT] cygport 0.31.0-1

The following packages have been uploaded to the Cygwin distribution:

* cygport-0.31.0-1

cygport is the standard method for building and maintaining packages for 
the Cygwin distribution.

This release includes some new features:

* CMake-based builds use Ninja instead of Unix Makefiles to compile if the 
default src_compile() functions are used.  Otherwise, Unix Makefiles will
still be used to avoid breaking API; however, if you use the default 
src_compile() but a custom src_install(), then you will have to change 
your .cygport file.  The value of CYGCMAKE_GENERATOR overrides the default.

* Cross-compiling with Meson uses the system cross files; this requires
the latest Meson 0.44.1.

* Compiler flags for enabling Stack Smashing Protection and Object Size 
Checking guards have been added to the default CFLAGS/etc., except when
cross-compiling to MinGW.  This requires Cygwin 2.10.

* The LLVM tools will be used, if present, for stripping binaries and 
detecting DLL dependencies, as they tend to be faster than Binutils.

Jon Turney (1):
  Produce obsoletes: headers in .hint files

  prepstrip: use LLVM toolchain where available
  Add Message-Id to announcements
  cmake: support and use Ninja generator

  cross: remove SSP flags from CFLAGS for MinGW
  meson: use system cross files
  kf5: separate kf5_cmake command, redefine kf5_compile
  kde4: update kde-l10n pruning for Apps 17.12 deprecation
  list_deps: use LLVM tools if present
  Update gnuconfig
  Bump version to 0.31.0
