Re: Using Cygwin as X Emulator
Manu, Yes. Now that was a short answer. Just install cygwin with the X packages and type startx its that easy. I could be wrong by saying that you won't be able to have modulair windows like with Exceed but you do get 1 MS-Windows window with all your X-Windows. You could also run a window manager to arrange all those x-window windows Just go crazy and try cygwin-setup...

I am connecting to a RH 7.2 box and would like to run X apps. The functionality I have in mind is that of EXceed but EXceed is atrociously costly. In case it is not possible using Cygwin,I'll like more pointers towards such a tool.In case no such tool is available how do I go about designing one??

Re: Interest in gcc 3.2.2?
Alan, Ok now its clear to me, thnx! :) Well the stuff ur doin is rather intresting but i think they won't help me for now. What i am trying to do is to compile my java program to a native executable, that works but not if I use threads At runtime i get the warning that threads ain't available, althoug the pthread lib is there and gcc is build with the threads on option Maybe if I re-compile gcc myself...didn't try that Grtz, Bart *** REPLY SEPARATOR *** On 12-2-2003 at 12:16 Alan Thompson wrote: Bart - I am using JNI, so I compile the C++ stuff with g++ 3.2.2 and I compile the java stuff with J2SDK 1.4.1. Then, they can magically talk to each other so I can hook up my legacy code to java, RMI, Jini, JDBC, etc. The Java stuff runs in Sun's JRE 1.4.1 and calls the C++ code through the JNI. I also have callbacks from the C++ code into Java objects running in the JVM. So, in response to the question Are you or aren't you compiling your java program to a native executable??, the answer is a resounding Yes. Alan Thompson P.S. My apologies if the JNI part didn't quite leap out in my first messageit was a followup to a previous thread about iostream and JNI with g++ 3.2. P.P.S. I hadn't thought about compiling Java to a native executable. I'll have to think about that for future projects, perhaps.

GCJ Thread.start called but threads not available
Hi all, After i compile my java program using gcj in cygwin and execute the output file i get Thread.start called but threads not available When I check GCJ it seems it has been build with thread support (see below). I compile using: gcj --main=Test -g0 -o test *java A Test.java which is basicly a class with a main method which initializes a Tester object (extends Thread) and then starts it. What am I doing wrong? I have installed/upgraded to the lastest cygwin version. $ gcj -v Reading specs from /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-cygwin/3.2/specs Reading specs from /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-cygwin/3.2/../../../libgcj.spec rename spec lib to liborig Configured with: /netrel/src/gcc-3.2-3/configure --enable-languages=c,c++,f77,java --enable-libgcj --enable-threads=posix --with-system-zlib --enable-nls --without-included-gettext --enable-interpreter --disable-sjlj-exceptions --disable-version-specific-runtime-libs --enable-shared --build=i686-pc-linux --host=i686-pc-cygwin --target=i686-pc-cygwin --enable-haifa --prefix=/usr --exec-prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --libdir=/usr/lib --includedir=/nonexistent/include --libexecdir=/usr/sbin Thread model: posix gcc version 3.2 20020927 (prerelease) -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
