With that disclaimer, when I noticed you mentioned you were trying to get things working from the d: drive I remembered tripping across several messages that this is problematic with the GNU win32 install. I did see other messages on the subject, but they referenced monkeying around with the registery. I will try and find them and send them on to you. (If I can find them, I don't know whether I saw them in the current message list, or one of the archives I was browsing. Sorry I can't be more helpful at this point. Will see what I can find and pass it on. In my initial problem, which Steve gave me the solution for, the key was the three lines of "set- includes", particularly the last one with the two include paths separated by the "colon". =Steve Willer provided me with the following; =a) created a "cygnus" directory on my C: drive =b) unpacked the archive into there (using b18) =c) created a "bin" directory off root on my C: drive d) =copied "sh.exe" from cygnus\h-i386-cygwin32\bin to \bin =e) changed my autoexec.bat so that c:\bin was first in =the path = and c:\cygnus\h-i386-cygwin32\bin is somewhere in the = middle of the path (it's up to you where you put it, = but be sure to put it before any other directory that = has "make", like Borland C++) =f) set these other environment variables: = =GCC_EXEC_PREFIX=/cygnus/h-i386-cygwin32/lib/gcc-lib/ =C_INCLUDE_PATH=/cygnus/h-i386-cygwin32/i386-cygwin32/include/ =CPLUS_INCLUDE_PATH=/cygnus/h-i386-cygwin32/i386-cygwin32/include:/cygnus/include/g++/ = =That's it. That's all I did.
