To clarify : you can't make an executable that copies the dll or library co= de into the executable itself. When the exe launches it will look for cygwin1.dll in /usr/bin. So it will fail to launch on a system that doesn't have cygwin installed.=20=20 If I understand the cygwin license, this is intended as a way to help RedHat make money from cygwin (this intent is fine by me) by forcing you to pay them for a solution to this problem. marco atzeri-4 wrote: >=20 > On Thu, Feb 3, 2011 at 8:34 PM, gvidaver wrote: >=20 > what is a new game to continue a thread after 3-4 months ? >=20 >> >> It still requires the cygwin1.dll: >=20 > of course it is a cygwin program built by the gcc for cygwin . >=20 >> >> $ g++ -v >> ... >> gcc version 4.5.0 (GCC) >> >> $ g++ test.c -o test -static >> >> $ ldd test.exe >> =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0... >> =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0cygwin1.dll =3D> /usr/bin/cygwin1.dll (0x6100= 0000) >> =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0... >> >> And apparently the only alternative is mingw, see: >> >> http://cygwin.com/faq/faq-nochunks.html#faq.programming.static-linking >> "it is not possible to statically link with a Cygwin library to obtain an >> independent, self-contained executable.
