Do you have your directories mounted as text=binary? If you've updated with coolview then there are two places in the /gnuwin32/b18/... path that the cygwin.dll exists; make sure you've updated both copies. One is in the bin directory the other is in a lib subdirectory where you find libcygwin.a - \\||// ---o0O0--Earnie--0O0o---- -earnie_boyd AT hotmail DOT com- ------ooo0O--O0ooo------- Let me point you to: ftp://ftp.cygnus.com/pub/gnu-win32/latest/ (ftp site) http://www.cygnus.com/pubs/gnupro/ (Comercial Page) http://www.cygnus.com/misc/gnu-win32/ (Project Page) http://www.cygnus.com/ml/gnu-win32 (Mail Archives) http://www.itribe.net/virtunix/winhelp-man-pages/ (HTML Man Pages) http://www.lexa.ru/sos (Sergey Okhapkin) http://www.fu.is.saga-u.ac.jp/~colin/gcc.html (Colin Peters) http://www.xraylith.wisc.edu/~khan/software/gnu-win32/ (Mumit Khan) >From: "Dan Lundy" >To: >Subject: cygwin.dll >Date: Thu, 1 Jan 1998 20:05:57 -0600 > > > >Upon installing and attempting to execute a .exe put together by the =3D >GNUWin32 stuff, I continually receive "STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION" from =3D >cygwin.dll in the bygwin except handler. > >So I chalked it up to a crappy .exe, but I thought the GNUWin32 concept = >=3D >was interesting - having toyed with C++ and such briefly in the past. = >=3D >As such, I downloaded and installed all the stuff I could gt ahold of. > >After reading the installation notes, and carefully doing everything =3D >described - I ventured into some source, determined to make my own =3D >executable, one that worked. > >The shell seems to work fine, with all functions available (even created = >=3D >and properly mounted /tmp!). > >Problem is, when i invoke a ./configure command, the config fails in the = >=3D >same manner as above (when attempting to call awk.exe).
