I did understand that. If I understand you correctly, one can not use
Mingw from inside cygwin to produce working code that uses sockets and
pthreads. Is that correct? This code does use sockets and pthreads
although I do not strictly need them as it is code that uses them to run
in parallel and I only want to run on one processor. Oh well, I can
still use it in cygwin.
Thanks for your help.
