There are generally no extra libraries to load in a standard cygwin distribution; at least as far as normal C programs are concerned. I'm not sure where you found a libpthread.a but I doubt if it actually works with cygwin. Cygwin has some limited pthread support built in. If you are getting "undefined" references, this means that the functions are not available. Sorry. The sources for all of these are available, of course. In this case you may be able to find analogous functions in 'newlib', if you want to look into writing your own versions. If you do this, I hope you will consider making the functions available to the developers at newlib AT sources DOT redhat DOT com so that we can all benefit from your work. -Chris Faylor -Cygwin Engineering Manager -Red Hat, Inc. -- Want to unsubscribe from this list?
