[ITP] hp2xx: A HP-GL Converter

2008-05-15 Thread Dr. Volker Zell
Hi

I would like to contribute and maintain the 'hp2xx' package:

 o http://www.gnu.org/software/hp2xx/ (Homepage)
 o ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/hp2xx/   (Download location)


The package can be found in the following distros:

 o http://packages.debian.org/hp2xx


Here is the setup.hint file:
---
./setup.hint

sdesc: A HP-GL Converter
ldesc: 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).
category: Graphics
requires: cygwin libjpeg62 libpng12 libtiff5 xorg-x11-bin-dlls

 Did you perform the steps in the FAQ for the fatal error message you

 http://x.cygwin.com/docs/faq/cygwin-x-faq.html#q-error-font-eof

 Yes, it didn't work:
 umount /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts
 umount: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts: No such file or directory
 But directory exist:
 ls /user/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts

You have almost certainly opted to install cygwin with text mode
mounts (DOS style line endings).  If this is the case (you can 
verify this using cygcheck), you have two options:

1) reinstall cygwin with binary mounts (UNIX style line endings)

This is the preferred option, because installing using textmode
mounts can cause all sorts of other problems unless you're very 
careful.

[ It is possible to change the mount mode without reinstalling, 
but there is a high probability that you have some files with DOS
style line endings, each of which would need converting with d2u.
Finding and fixing them all is error prone and more trouble than 
it's worth.]

2) Ensure that the fonts directory is on a binary mount.  To do 
this, you need to delete the contents of /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts:

$ rm -rf /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/*

Then create a binary mount for the fonts:

$ mount -f -b $(cygpath -m /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts)
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts

You then need to reinstall the fonts packages via setup.exe

 I have a few makefiles which are written to run with the cmd.exe command

Just a wild guess, as I have not tested this:

Have you tried cmd.exe with the /c switch? If cmd.exe is called without
that switch, it expects input from the standard input (console).

Indeed, mea culpa. Nonetheless James (Longyu Mei) understood well what I

  Alright, only a little bit, but: there is no such thing as cygwin.exe.
You're thinking of setup.exe.


That's right, thanks for the correction.
A long time ago I renamed my link to Cygwin's setup.exe to Cygwin-Setup 
because setup.exe doesn't explain what it is. That's why I mixed these now.

Hello,

I am running Window XP on a 32-bit Dell Precision 670.  When

$ export DISPLAY=127.0.0.1:0.0
$ xhost +aero00
xhost:  unable to open display 127.0.0.1:0.0

Is there an issue with Service Pack 3?  I was unable to find an

Marc,

I see that you are not running cron as a service. You are starting it from the 
command window.
Could it be that you were logged out at 4:30 in the morning of May 14?
The cron that was running when you sent the message was only started on May 14 
at 20:19:52 
Use cron-config to launch cron as a service (or stay logged in).

performance issue when calling function in cygwin1.dll

2008-05-15 Thread Stephen David
Hello,

A while back I posted a problem with regard to performance issue with sshd and 
cygrunsrv:   http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2008-03/msg00306.html   No luck, and 
re-starting my investigation.

Larry's last suggestion (thank you, Larry) was to try running my service as a 
local user, not a domain user.  However in this case it is not possible, as I'm 
running Windows Small Business Server 2003, which *must* be a domain controller 
and therefore all accounts are domain account (apparently).  Is running as a 
domain user a known performance issue?

I have some new information that might help:

Since this problem happens even when running 'date', i compiled a version of 
date with debug symbols and ran it through gdb.  Seems that the line of code 
that it ultimately hangs up on (for 7 seconds, at 100% cpu) is in gettime.c 
(line 36):

...snip...
  if (clock_gettime (CLOCK_REALTIME, ts) == 0)
...snip...

Which it seems is exported from cygwin1.dll.   Since this problem affects just 
about all programs (not just 'date'), i suspect the same is true in other cases 
--hangs up when callling anything in cygwin1.dll.

Note that this doesn't happen in all cases -- only when logged in via ssh, or 
when cron is running something.  probably something related to the context 
under which the parent process is running.  

Any ideas on how I can further troubleshoot, considering using a non-domain 
user is not an option? 

Regards,
Steve

Question about link.exe?

2008-05-15 Thread Chris Howell
I am running on Vista, and what I am doing is I open up a Dev Studio 
2008 command shell. From that command shell I launch cygwin/bash... 
Things like cl.exe are inherited from the first shell I've opened in the 
bash environment. What I want is link to be the path that is found under 
my BIN directory of my DevStudio install. However possibily because 
they're the same name when I query link, or try and use it to make a 
dll. Bash thinks I am using link to make a symbolic link as opposed to a 
dll.


Any suggestions or help would be appreciated.

Re: Question about link.exe?

2008-05-15 Thread Lee Dilkie
I found that setting the complier and linker (all the tools, actually) 
to the full path is the most reliable means to ensure the correct 
executables are picked up.


ie.

CC = full_path_to_ds_8_bin/cl.exe
LINK = full_path_to_ds_8_bin/link.exe

you can use the registered environment variables for DS to build the 
full path up. (can't remember the name right now, I'm at home).

Hmm, does

export PATH=$(dirname $(which cl.exe)):$PATH

not solve this for you?  You could also do

alias link=$(dirname $(which cl.exe))/link.exe

but that will only give you link, not link.exe (in case you care).

Cygwin = cross platform (one way)?

not.

I have a small socket server application running on
Linux. It uses Unix socket libraries and also do some
file operations. I am wondering if I can compile it
with Cygwin without any changes on my code?

If yes, that means Cygwin is kind of tool to make an

start from Linux?

Please just send your comments to me if any if this

It's fair to ask this question here but it is frowned
upon to do so by replying to a message in another thread
and changing the subject.  Please don't do this.

I think the answer to your general inquiry is:

Whether Cygwin makes your particular port possible without
any code changes is something you'll need to determine
for yourself though.

Re: Makefile command interpreter

2008-05-15 Thread Volker Kuhlmann

Setting export SHELL=cmd.exe
calls cmd.exe alright, but then sits there forever waiting for input.


Just a wild guess, as I have not tested this:

Have you tried cmd.exe with the /c switch? If cmd.exe is called without
that switch, it expects input from the standard input (console).


Yes, tried that, the result always is

   '-c' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
   operable program or batch file.

Something is messing with the argument list.

No difference between these two there:

   SHELL=cmd.exe /C
   SHELL:=/cygdrive/c/windows/system32/cmd.exe -- /C

Looks like that might be on the right track, but how do I get arguments 
across verbatim?


Thanks,

Re: Makefile command interpreter

2008-05-15 Thread Mark J. Reed
The problem is that Make invokes the shell with -c, e.g.

bash -c gcc ...

cmd.exe doesn't understand that and apparently ignores it.  But when
you supply /c, yielding

cmd.exe /c -c gcc ...

It complains.  Basocally, make expects a shell that accepts Unix shell
args.  You could create a wrapper for the windows shell that does,
maybe, but you can't use the windows shell directly from Cygwin's
make.

Cygwin's version of make is intended to be used with POSIX shells.
cmd.exe doesn't qualify.  make is going to always append a -c to any
SHELL invocation that you specify so no amount of makefile magic is
going to work around that.

If you need a version of make which understands cmd.exe then I'd suggest
trying mingw: http://mingw.org/ .  That project is designed to provide
windows tools with a minimal nod towards POSIX.

 * Fixed a setup.hint require error
 
libidn NEWS:
===
  
 * Version 1.8 (released 2008-04-23)

 ** Translations files not stored directly in git to avoid merge conflicts.
 This allows us to avoid use of --no-location which makes the
 translation teams happier.

 ** Update gnulib files.

 ** API and ABI is backwards compatible with the previous version.

 * Version 1.7 (released 2008-04-10)

 ** idn: new parameter --nfkc to process string with Unicode v3.2 NFKC.

 ** Minor build fix for native Win32 builds.

 ** Update gnulib files.

 ** API and ABI is backwards compatible with the previous version.

 * Version 1.6 (released 2008-03-19)

 ** Add native Windows Visual Studio project files.
 Contributed by Adam Strzelecki [EMAIL PROTECTED].

 ** Remove non-free portions of RFC 3454 in doc/specifications/rfc3454.txt.

 ** Update gnulib files.

 ** Doc fixes in IDNA to clarify that some functions operate on
 ** just one domain labels and some operate on domain name (which
 ** can contain several domain labels).

 ** API and ABI is backwards compatible with the previous version.

 * Version 1.5 (released 2008-02-19)

 ** Don't include wchar.h in idn-int.h.
 Fixes problems on uClibc systems which lack a wchar.h.  Reported by
 Mike Frysinger [EMAIL PROTECTED], see
 http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.libidn.general/118.

 ** Added appendix 'On Label Separators' to the manual.
 Thanks to Erik van der Poel [EMAIL PROTECTED] for bringing the issue
 to our attention and for discussing the matter.  See
 http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.libidn.general/96.

 ** Improved rendering of non-ASCII in the info manual.
 Done by adding a @documentencoding UTF-8.  This affect how the
 examples are encoded, the files examples/*.c are now encoded using
 UTF-8 instead of a mix of ISO-8859-1 and ISO-8859-15.

 ** Fix non-portable use of brace expansion in makefiles.

 ** Update translations.

 ** Update gnulib files.

 ** API and ABI is backwards compatible with the previous version.

 * Version 1.4 (released 2008-01-09)
