New machine, new Cygwin instillation, target triple mess
Hi, I have just installed Cygwin on my new machine with a new harddrive, on Vista. I had the old harddrive working with my old Cygwin instillation working on this machine, with Vista. Target triple was fine. Questions :- How do I get my old Cygwin Instillation to work for my E: drive, I could not see anything in the Windows Registry to change to deal with this. I changed the shortcut over to drive E, but Cygwin just bombs out. How do I check a target triple from Cygwin, I found 'uname' but it was giving me i686, and so unknown values. I really need to get my old Cygwin working, and to know about anything like installing Cygwin on a new 4 CPU AMD machine could effect the arget triple generation.

Re: Cannot find SSH in the installer ?
Hi Aaron, 2009/3/20 Aaron Gray : Sorry what catagory ? When you happen to know the package name, but don't remember in which category is it, click on the 'View' button on the top right of the setup window till it says 'Full' in front of it. Then you can browse the alphabetical list of all packages. And if you don't even know the package name, but know the name of a file in it, then do a cygcheck -p name of the file before starting browsing in the setup.exe package list...

Can someone look into this please, Well, just to state the obvious, /you/ would be the most ideally-placed person to do so. I don't even have Vista, so I'm kinda ruled out there, but I'd take a look at the perms and ACLs of conftest.dir and the existing depcomp file in there, using both 'getfacl' to show cygwin's view of the posix-style perms, and 'cacls' to compare with windoze's opinion. BTW, you didn't by any chance use winzip to unpack the tarball did you? No. Apart from that, the file permission settings are the same in Vista compared to older OSes. The exception is the UAC stuff which could result in some executables having less permissions than usual, if, for instance, Internet Explorer has been used to download the executable. We can hopefully rule this out here, so it's just some permission problem which has nothing to do with the base OS. Works fine on XP. The only things that are diferent are the Cygwin instillation and Vista. Note: Not all problems on Vista are Vista's (or, FWIW, Cygwin's) fault. See, for example http://cygwin.com/acronyms/#PEBCAK for one possible explanation of the problem. Nice reply :) Does look like a case of PEBCAK. Unmodified GCC 4.2.0 compiles okay, but when modified cracks appear, only on Vista though, XP is okay. So must be something to do with permissions.

Re: Problem building GCC on Cygwin on Vista
Aaron Gray wrote: A Windows text editor called Zeus. That's it. I bet the problem disappears if you use a Cygwin text editor such as vim. When a native Windows app creates a file, it usually does not do anything special with the ACL, so it gets whatever the default inheritable permissions of the directory happen to be, which it looks like are not correct. You could also try a native editor that edits in-place instead of the usual create new file with temporary name then rename. Except its not a file I have editted that is causing the problem, they are all behaving fine. Things are a bit slow at this end due to other tasks and I am running out of time before I am back home away from my Vista machine at my parents so this may have to be put on hold as getting back to the original problem place is taking longer than I though and producing meaning full results from examining source will take a while.

Maybe, since 'time' is a linux program, whatever is needed to get it to work accurately isn't well-implemented in Cygwin, so you can't trust its output. 2) Hey!

Re: Successful build of GCC 4.2.0 RC3 on latest Cygwin snapshot 20070427
Danger, Will Robinson: the g++ from gcc-4.2.0 does not have any support for catching exceptions thrown across DLL boundaries. Nor does it include the fix for empty strings (PR24196). The former problem can be solved by building libgcc shared, and libstdc++/libsupc++ shared. Absent modern libtool support (which is partially present only in trunk), this will be tricky. But even when you get an initial DLL version of these libraries, there will certainly be a long shakedown period... So don't anybody here on the cygwin list get too excited yet. g Yes, it looks like we are getting a few instances of this on the LLVM test suite. Oh well, looks like the Cygwin build is not going to make it for the LLVM 2.0 Release.

Re: Successfull Build of gcc on Cygwin WinXp SP2
Aaron Gray wrote: Thank you. I am a bit unsure of where abouts (what directory) do you install the snapshot ? Again, this has nothing to do with gcc, take it the Cygwin list. If you are using the full snapshots (cygwin-inst-$date.tar.bz2) they should be unpacked in the root (/). The other types are just the cygwin1.dll which goes in /usr/bin of course. And again, you do *not* need to mess with any of this to make stdio.h usable for building gcc. Just take stdio.h from newlib HEAD and place it in /usr/include. The FAQ does not seem to say that. From the instructions it would seem it would go in the current users directory. Read it again. Both tar commands include -C which means cd to this directory before extacting. I am a bit confused what winsup is as well. That is just a directory in the src tree that contains the code for Cygwin, MinGW, w32api, and other miscellaneous Windows things. But note that you can't build Cygwin from just winsup/cygwin, as Cygwin needs other parts of the src tree, such as libiberty and newlib. When you do a cvs co cygwin that is actually a CVS module that gets you a selected subset of the entire src tree, including the toplevel scripts that are shared across gcc/binutils/gdb/sim/etc. If you later do cvs up from the toplevel you'll accidently get the entire src tree which you don't need, so you have to do cvs up in each individual directory. Thanks. I think I understand most of that and will try again fresh tommorow. I'll try not to bother the GCC list if I can possibly avoid it.

Re: /dev/null timing and clock skew problems
It seems the 'Clock Skew' warnings are the only serious ones. They never used to occur on previous Cygwin releases though. I am building LLVM with Cygwin and am getting the warnings but on building GCC I am getting no clock skew or modification time warnings. http://llvm.org CVS and build instructions :- http://www.aarongray.org/LLVM/BuildingLLVMonCygwin.html The clock skew warnings appear after a link or archive.

Re: Does Cygwin support latex ?
Does Cygwin have latex or do I use tex ? Cygwin's teTeX installation includes both tex and latex, as well as a number of other TeX-related programs. (TeTeX is described as a complete TeX distribution; these days, LaTeX is considered a required part of such a thing.) I have an existing project and make file, possibly from Unix, and it uses latex and latex2html. I have installed tex but it does not seem to have a tex2html command. What commands and what packages do I need ? LaTeX2HTML is actually a completely separate program from TeX/LaTeX/etc, though it (of course) processes LaTeX input files. I don't believe that there is currently a Cygwin package for it, so I suspect you'll need to install it directly. The official LaTeX2HTML website is here: http://www.latex2html.org/; it contains downloads, though it seems fairly sparse on installation info. In addition, http://www.cs.utexas.edu/users/suvrit/work/l2h.html contains some basic instructions for installing it on Cygwin. A Google search on latex2html cygwin finds others as well.

Re: Cygwin and firewalls
I am wondering if there is a firewall that coexists with Cygwin well. IIRC, there were complaints about Norton software and about some other firewalls too. What would you recommend me? I ask because I've never had to use firewall before (my home box is behind NAT in a secure network) and I have no experience with Windows firewalls. I've just bought a laptop and a firewall seems to be necessary in this case. If you just have purchased it, it has probably Windows XP installed. Why not just use the system firewall which is part of XP SP2? It's fairly simple to use and I had no trouble using it with Cygwin, so far. It's at least good for a start and it doesn't cost anything extra. Windows XP SP2 firewall is very good and should not interfere with Cygwin. I have also been using Norton Internet Security firewall also with no problems with Cygwin.

mkdtemp() configuration bug
It looks like the latest Cygwin has a problem with mkdtemp(). mkdtemp()
exists in a library and is linkable, but there is no function prototype for
it in the headers.
The configuration system compiles a function :-
/* Override any gcc2 internal prototype to avoid an error. */
| #ifdef __cplusplus
| extern C
| {
| #endif
| /* We use char because int might match the return type of a gcc2
|builtin and then its argument prototype would still apply. */
| char mkdtemp ();
| /* The GNU C library defines this for functions which it implements
| to always fail with ENOSYS. Some functions are actually named
| something starting with __ and the normal name is an alias. */
| #if defined (__stub_mkdtemp) || defined (__stub___mkdtemp)
| choke me
| #else
| char (*f) () = mkdtemp;
| #endif
| #ifdef __cplusplus
| }
| #endif
|
| int
| main ()
| {
| return f != mkdtemp;
| ;
| return 0;
| }
It defines 'char mkdtemp()' and links it as it is defined in a library but
not in a header !

setting environment variables from a bash script
Is it possible to set an environment variable using a bash script and for
that variable to be able to be seen within bash once the script is
finnished.
I want to be able to set the path using a script so I can say :-
./gcc-3.4.3
calling a script simular to this :-
gcc-3.4.3
#! /bin/sh
set PATH=/usr/gcc-3.4.3/bin:${PATH}
which will then set the path from then on.

Re: setting environment variables from a bash script
Is it possible to set an environment variable using a bash script and for that variable to be able to be seen within bash once the script is finnished. It's impossible for a child process to modify the environment of its parent. By executing the file as a script you spawn a shell subprocess, meaning the changes to the environment are for that process only. Okay thought so :( You can get around that by sourcing the script instead of executing it, because in that case you tell the current shell to read and execute the commands in the file rather than spawning a subprocess to do it. How do I do that ? source the script ?
