Hi all,
We are porting a Linux application to Windows. The app heavily uses
POSIX calls like fork(), and we don't want to rewrite it, therefore we
have to rely on Cygwin. The source is in C++; we compile & build it with
the Cygwin tools. Our problem is the following: the resulting .exe can
be started only from a DOS prompt. When I double-click on the file in
Windows Explorer, I get an error message. What might cause this?
Details: the setup on my machine looks like this:
C:\
OurAppFolder\
OurApp.exe
OurScript.tcl
cygwin1.dll
When OurApp.exe starts up, it invokes Tcl/Tk's "wish" shell, and passes
OurScript.tcl to it for interpretation. (The actual Tcl/Tk installation on my
machine is ActiveTcl 8.4., but that's not really important.)
Now, when I double-click on OurApp.exe in Windows Explorer, I get the
following error message from wish:
Error in startup script
couldn't read file "/cygdrive/c/OurAppFolder/OurScript.tcl": no such file
or directory
But when I open a DOS prompt in OurAppFolder and start OurApp from
there, then everything's fine. (Notice that it's a plain DOS prompt, not
Cygwin's bash.)
So my question is: what's the reason for this behavior? To me it seems
that the C:\OurAppFolder\OurScript.tcl path gets transformed into its
Cygwin equivalent, and wish doesn't understand the transformed path.
But why is everything OK from the DOS prompt? And is there a way to
make the double-click work as expected?
Any help is greatly appreciated. Please cc replies to kodaj AT freemail DOT hu
as well.
Thanks in advance,
Bence Kodaj
P.S.: I've attached the result of "cygcheck -s -v -r ". (You might find that
some of the developer tools are missing; that's because OurApp.exe
has been built on a different machine, I'm just running it.)
