If I should just wait for the (forth coming?) posting to cygwin-apps, just say so. Thanks. Is it true that I should not recompile anything under 1.5.0 unless all the dlls it uses have been recompiled first under same? If not all, how do I identify the subset? So, 1.5.0 headers are not safe for development, except for dll package maintainers recompiling for the above purpose, and for those carefully checking from the bottom up? Is it safe to use 1.3.22 headers with a 1.5.0 dll (I think so)? Obviously the converse is not true. A comprehensive posting about the rules would be greatly beneficial to those of us who develop using Cygwin. -- Brian Ford Senior Realtime Software Engineer VITAL - Visual Simulation Systems FlightSafety International Phone: 314-551-8460 Fax: 314-551-8444 -- 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/
