As can be seen, there seems to be a wee problem with the libraries which I thought I had been very clever in building (i.e. the Makefile is virtually unchanged from our original UNIX one and uses 'ar rv' to build the library). /develop/oracle/rs/101/lib/libRsa.a: syntax error near unexpected token `!' /develop/oracle/rs/101/lib/libRsa.a: /develop/oracle/rs/101/lib/libRsa.a: line 1: `!' make: *** [CYGWIN32/NT] Error 2 make: *** [DUMMY] Error 2 bash$ ......the library above is specified to gcc as '-lRsa' but cygwin32 doesn't seem to understand its own archive format. So, any clues anybody? P.S. On the patch attachment front (I haven't used any myself yet) do peoples' e-mail programs not allow them to automatically reject large messages? Mine does and then gives you the option of getting them later if you want them. Seems to allow the best of both worlds. T.T.F.N. ROBERT - For help on using this list (especially unsubscribing), send a message to "gnu-win32-request AT cygnus DOT com" with one line of text: "help".
