WindowManager-0.90.0-2 runs absolutely stable with no leaks under cygwin 1.5 before upgrading to latest Xorg. So I guess suspicion first falls that this leak is somewhere in one of the updated X DLLs... -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/ FAQ: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/faq/

The first step towards fixing this is a description of the problem that
can be understood by someone who isn't in front of your computer :-)
Otherwise, Cygwin/X work great!

I have an application that uses XWarpPointer to relocate the cursor on the

If cygwin X is started without the -multiwindow option, cursor warping works as
expected. However, if the -multiwindow option is included, it seems that all
calls to XWarpPointer are ignored. Maybe I am doing something wrong on startup
or there is an alternate way to warp the cursor.
I saw that there was some early references to this problem related to
positioning the cursor on startup
(http://sourceware.org/ml/cygwin-xfree/2003-05/msg00443.html) but no apparent
resolution. If possible, I would like to see the XWarpPointer function work as
documented for any windowing configuration.
Much better :-) Even I can understand what the problem is now.
(but for some reason your 2nd mail didn't appear on gmane, so I almost missed
it)
The 'cursor positioning on startup' issue is subtly different: the X server
internally generates a pointer warp at startup to move the pointer to the
centre of the screen. XWin takes special steps to ignore this warp, so that
merely launching the X server doesn't disrupt what the user was doing.
Attached patch enables XWarpCursor to do something in -multiwindow and
-rootless modes.
Also attached is a small application which functions as testcase for this.
Cygwin/X: Allow pointer warping to work in rootless modes
Mouse pointer warping in multiwindow/rootless mode was never implemented,
due to concerns that moving the mouse pointer without asking might be rude
This patch allows X applications to move the mouse pointer in rootless modes,
Let's hope they don't abuse this privilege ;-)

Reliably check if we're running under cygwin inside Makefile
Hello, I have a program that will built both under fedora and under cygwin. The program is written in C and the Makefile is slightly different between the two systems.

The source code itself have constructs like these for parts that differ between cygwin and fedora: #if defined __CYGWIN__ /* Turn on vsync, this works on Cygwin. */ SDL_GL_SetAttribute(SDL_GL_SWAP_CONTROL, 1); #elif defined __linux /* Fedora doesn't support SDL_GL_SWAP_CONTROL, but we use this extension instead. */ SDL_putenv(__GL_SYNC_TO_VBLANK=1); #endif and I'm looking for something similiar to use with the Makefiles so I can turn the two Makefiles into one.

As my demo below shows, programs simply exit silently and unceremoniously when that happens. That is fixed in Cygwin 1.7.x. Second, symlinking to DLLs doesn't enable programs to find them, as is also shown below. Right. Symlinks are a Cygwin invention. Cygwin doesn't start running until after DLLs are loaded. So, since Windows does not know about Cygwin symlinks there is no way that they can be used to symlink DLLs. 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/

the '.inputrc' stuff, here).
Speed
It's quite funny, I didn't realise that until people here
pointed it out, probably because I didn't have to do anything to
achieve it. :)
Actually, it's surprising that I could notice it, at all. My new
computer is a Gateway, running Vista 64b, and it's much ()
faster than the old one (less than a year old) that got zapped by
lightning static (an HP [slow disk!!!], running Vista 32b, Intel
Dual Core and 2/3 the RAM). Xterm was pretty much intolerably
slow with the HP, but is quite peppy on the GW (AMD Quad Core).
(The other nice things about Vista 64b are a practically
unlimited command line, and much longer tolerated path names,
ANAICT [as near as I can tell].)
Actually, the only thing wrong with MinTTY, ANAICT, is the name.
I would have preferred: CFFTTW (Cygwin's Fast F-ing Terminal That
Works! ;-) CFFT, for short? The name would be in the tradition,
for example, of MIT's node for documentation --
ftp://RTFM.mit.edu !)
Best conformance to my personal expectation of what various
directional keys (HOME, END, -, -, etc.) should do!
(However, still bummed that CTRL-- CTRL-- do not
move, respectively forward and back a word on the command
line!)
These two lines in .inputrc should do the trick:
\e[1;5D: backward-word
\e[1;5C: forward-word
Thank you!
And here's my favourite bash feature, mapped to Ctrl-Up/Down:
\e[1;5A: history-search-backward
\e[1;5B: history-search-forward
Perhaps I don't understand this 'bash' feature, but it doesn't
seem to work for me.
* Futures expectation: My number one goal would be for it to
replace the Cygwin console for everything, although I
understand there are great difficulties with that goal.
Hmm, yep, unfortunately the only path I can see towards that
goal is to take Console2's approach of capturing a Windows
console, and to try and make the cygwin terminal running inside
it more standards-compliant, but that would still leave the
slowness of the console and the lag caused by capturing its
contents.
Perhaps it would be possible to override and reimplement
the Win32 console functions as listed at
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms682073(VS.85).aspx ?
Do DOS software interrupts still work too? It would certainly
be a huge amount of work though, which would include having to
reimplement the console's ANSI emulation.
I do lots of bash scripting including Windows/DOS commands, and I
can think of only one character cell app that ever gave me any
trouble from rxvt or xterm (whatever that app is -- I think a
Resource Kit app), I found a work-around and never needed it
again.
Isn't ANSI implementation required of virtual terminals? I know
that later DEC VTs, and HP terminals (bless their expensive
little scroll-back buffer hearts) had an ANSI mode. Does Curses
make this issue go away?
Because of the nature of various discussion elements in wading
through this stuff, I am referring to my documentation project as:
*Diuretics*!
*grin*
BTW, that's why the signature was: L Dave Rothstein (as in L Ron
Hubbard -- Dianetics! ;-)).
@@ What alternate screen? @@
Good question. It's vt100 lingo for a second logical screen
that wholescreen apps such as editors normally use, often through
the (n)curses library. (I'm taking wholescreen to mean an app
controlling the whole terminal screen, as opposed to the terminal
window being in fullscreen mode.)
= Is there an alternate screen toggle in 'mintty' as there is
in 'xterm'?
I didn't know xterm actually had a UI for this. Do people find
this useful?
I've used it on occasion when I needed to scroll back through two
debugging runs of a text-mode (character cell) app (or debugging
statements).
What would be better for this and other problems, however, is a
feature that I would love: The ability to interactively, on the
fly change, the Title Bar/Task Bar Title to be clear on what each
Window is doing. (I already know how to change the title from the
command line, e.g.:
echo -ne \033]2;*** $* ***\007
but that doesn't fill the need with an omnibus app/tool like
virtual terminal.)
The older I get the more I need this. I could actually use this
on every Windows app, and perhaps on real life objects and
conversations, as well! ;-)
= How do you invoke it?
You shouldn't need to really. Apps such as 'less' or 'vi'
switch to it using the releavant vt100 incantation.
Okay, I'll fix that.

the feature doesn't work in Vista when the
scrollbar is shown. Looks like the inactive scrollbar is

Has anyone tried to incorporate it so far?
Yes, I started to package Python 2.6.1 and 3.0 before the holidays.
Unfortunately, I ran into problems with Python 2.6.1 during the testing
phase. When I executed the regression test, every threading related
test caused python.exe to core dump. FWIW, the threading related tests
for Python 2.5.2 or 3.0 do not core dump under the same Cygwin 1.5.25
installation. See attached for the cygcheck output.
I built a debug-able Cygwin DLL (from the cygwin-1.5.25-15 source
tarball) and Python executable, so I could try to debug the problem.
The following is a sample gdb session:
$ gdb python.exe
...

How to make setup.exe default to local-install?
I'm creating a Cygwin snapshot for installation from CD, and I've got everything figured out except for one thing: I need setup.exe to default to a local install. I can't use a shortcut to run setup.exe because shortcuts have absolute paths. It looks like a batch file would work, but it pops up a nuisance console window. [Question: does local directory refer to the directory where setup.exe is located or to the current working directory?] I suppose I could build a custom setup.exe that checks the local install radio button by default instead of the network install button.

bug in cygwin's gcc/g++ getopt_long(): erroneous ambiguous option
Hi,
When given certain long options, Cygwin's getopt_long() function
erroneously fails on ambiguous option. The short program below
illustrates the problem: getopt_long() wrongfully reports the --xy
option as ambiguous.
Strangely, if flipping the order of the 2nd and 3rd entries in the
options-array (by compiling the program with -DNO_BUG) the bug goes
away, clearly demonstrating inconsistent Cygwin/getopt_long behavior.
The bug is triggered when compiling the program with Cygwin's default
gcc/g++ (3.4.4) or with gcc-4/g++-4 (4.3.2). The bug does not occur
when compiling the program with gcc/g++ (ver 3 or 4) on other OSes
(e.g., Linux).
A fix would be appreciated.
Best,
--Dan

Re: fetchmail pops up console windows
On 2008-02-22, Dr. Volker Zell wrote: Hi This still bugs me. fetchmail pops up console windows when delivering mails to procmail. It doesn't matter if I run fetchmail directly from the commandline (in my case in a rxvt window under X) or as a service. Any hint what could cause this popup windows is appreciated. I'm running under XP SP2 with the latest packages installed. I'm having the same problem running fetchmail as a daemon from the command line. Were you able to find a solution?

Re: Signal handling in Win32 GUI programs
Actually I still can't quite get signal handling in MinTTY to work
right. SIGINT is fine, but SIGTERM, SIGHUP, and SIGKILL don't seem to
get to sigwait(), instead still invoking the default handler, i.e.
terminating MinTTY without SIGHUP being sent to the command inside it.
Here's what I got:
static const sigset_t term_sigs =
1SIGHUP | 1SIGKILL | 1SIGTERM | 1SIGINT;
static void *
signal_thread(void *arg)
{
int sig;
sigwait(term_sigs, sig);
puts(signalled);
if (pid)
kill(pid, SIGHUP);
exit(0);
}
And in the main thread:
pthread_sigmask(SIG_BLOCK, term_sigs, 0);
pthread_t thread;
pthread_create(thread, 0, signal_thread, 0);
Anything obvious missing?
Andy

Re: MinTTY Double Click Issue
ERIC HO wrote: In MinTTY, when I try to highlight a word or the line by double clicking on the mouse, sometimes I have to do this (double click) a few times. What does happen when the double click is unsuccessful? MinTTY uses the Windows double click time setting to decide whether a click part of a double (or triple) click. I think the Windows default is something like 700ms. Presumably you don't see this problem in other Windows apps, e.g. Notepad? Is there a config option to adress this? Nope, there isn't anything directly related to that.
