[snip] As you already know, the answer is no, not with the gcc version=20 currently distributed with Cygwin. There are 2 available options, the first is free, the second is not=20 (includes SWT and other stuff), both are MingW versions of gcc 4.3 : http://www.thisiscool.com/gcc_mingw.htm http://jnc.mtsystems.ch/ Hope this is useful. --=20 Ren=E9 Berber -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
