Hi

Either I am stupid or ....

Environment:
------------
I am using cygwin 1.1.4 on a Windows 2000 server. The key thing is to give
to
the unix developers a unix like environment to compile the source for
windows.

I have Visual Studio 6 installed on the E:-Drive.

The C++ Compiler Path is /cygdrive/e/VS6/VC98/Bin.
The VS C++ Compiler is called CL.EXE.
The Compiler Path is in the PATH defined.

Problem:
--------

I can start the compiler with the command

"cl"

I can also start the compiler with the command

"/cygdrive/e/VS6/VC98/Bin/CL.EXE"

but I can't start the compiler with the command

"CL.EXE".

Also generating a softlink /bin/CL.EXE to /cygdrive/e/VS6/VC98/Bin/CL.EXE
dosn't work.

Every EXE file in the path /cygdrive/e/VS6/VC98/Bin can't be executed with
"name.exe".

What is wrong ??????

We need this, else I have to modify a lot of files.

Greetings,
Anatol
