Lost characters with fputc/putc
Hi, I am the maintainer of a free common lisp environment called ECL (http://ecls.sourceforge.net), which has been ported to cygwin long time ago. Recently I have noticed some problems with a code that basically does this - open a FILE with w+b - write a character to it - flush - close file The thing is that if I use fputc or putc to write the character, it is lost, while using fwrite() does just the right thing. I just show you the difference #if 1 if (fputc(c, fp) == EOF) /* version A */ io_error(strm); #else if (fwrite(c, 1, 1, fp) 1) /* version B */ io_error(strm); #endif No other file operation is performed on this file and I have not been able to simplify this to a smaller C program that shows this problem so far, but I am just comparing two big programs which only differ on these two lines. The same program just builds and runs fine on Linux, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, NetBSD, Mac OS X and Solaris, as well as with Mingw and MSVC, so I suspect there is something wrong with the cygwin port or the cygwin libraries exclusively. Help on solving this issue is most welcome. Otherwise I will simply have to abandon this port. Cheers, Juanjo P.S.: In case somebody wants to reproduce this, after building ECL with ./configure --prefix=$HOME or something similar, and installing it, just do ecl.exe -load file.lsp where file.lsp contains the following lines. (si::system rm -f foo) ; delete previous files (LET ((S (OPEN foo :direction :IO :if-does-not-exist :create))) (write-char #\h s) ; create a file foo with only a character (force-output s) (close s)) (si::system cat foo; echo) ; type file to see whether character is present (si::system ls -l foo*) -- Facultad de Fisicas, Universidad Complutense, Ciudad Universitaria s/n Madrid 28040 (Spain) http://juanjose.garciaripoll.googlepages.com -- 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/

Building Ruby (was Re: Ruby on Rails 2.0.2/Cygwin Bug)
In reference to that /dev/urandom bug I encountered last week, I thought I might try to build Ruby from source on Cygwin and see how it works. I downloaded Ruby 1.8.6-p111 off the ruby-lang.org website, unpacked it, then ./configure and make. This fails with: ./missing/strftime.c:193: error: 'timezone' redeclared as different kind of symbol /usr/include/cygwin/time.h:33: error: previous declaration of 'timezone' was here make: *** [strftime.o] Error 1 I'm not sure why that happens, and I'm not sure what's different about the Cygwin Ruby package which works. Any ideas? Incidentally, I downloaded the new development release of Ruby 1.9.0, and it compiles just fine on Cygwin. It also runs my /dev/urandom bug script without failing, and lseek is not called in the strace.

stackdumps during install on windows vista + other problems
Hello, I just installed Cygwin on my new laptop that is running Windows Vista Business edition. I've used cygwin for a few years but this is my first time ever using Windows Vista. I did my usual install (mostly developement related packages, no X), then I fired up bash to get the skeleton files copied to my home directory. That seemed to work fine. Anyway, then I closed cygwin down and when I was about to copy my old .bashrc and .inputrc I noticed two stackdump files in the c:/cygwin directory. I don't know how helpful they are going to be but I'm attaching them anyway. Then I started bash again, this time with the new .bashrc and .inputrc and bash complains: Your group is currently mkpasswd. This indicates that the /etc/passwd (and possibly /etc/group) files should be rebuilt. See the man pages for mkpasswd and mkgroup then, for example, run mkpasswd -l [-d] /etc/passwd mkgroup -l [-d] /etc/group Note that the -d switch is necessary for domain users. I must admit I haven't tried following the suggestions displayed. If I don't have really wierd settings on this mahcine I guess it might be because of the stackdumping processes during the installation phase. Anyway, I performed a cygcheck -svr cygcheck.out which is attached. But something weird happens: $ cygcheck -svr cygcheck.out 'id' program not found 'id' program not found However, I still get a cygcheck.out-file but I have never seen that 'id' stuff before. Btw, looking at the outfile gives me the impression that cygheck thinks Windows Vista is not supported, but I thought the problems with it (something involving manifests iirc) were sorted out months ago? Anyway, the little I've tried with cygwin seems to work fine but the stackdumps during the installtion phase and the warnings I get when launching bash and running cygcheck worries me so I thought it would be a good idea to post about it here.

Mac, cygwin, flash
Hi gracious experts! Please don't flame me. I'm a mac user, but I used to use cygwin, back when I was a kid and didn't get to choose my operating system. Well, I have a 4 GB Flash drive coming in the mail (incredibly, it is the size of a half-smoked cigar), and I was wondering if I could justify my purchase by putting cygwin onto it so that I can use emacs and a latex processor on any desktop. I found the post describing how to put cygwin onto a flash drive (http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2003-07/msg01117.html), but this description requires a working installation on a windows machine. Unfortunately, the desktops to which I have access are feeble, and I would not want to spend 55 hours downloading and getting everything to work there. Is there a way for me to acquire a working cygwin dist from here, from my speedy old powerbook G4?
