Perhaps there's a compiler > switch that I missed? Have you considered the registry? Installing Cygwin updates the registry - it's where the mount points are recorded. If your app is using a POSIX-style path anywhere (eg /tmp/...) this would not be found, and if your app is dependent on the text/binary mount switches it would behave differently. A quick check would be to temporarily rename your Cygnus Solutions registry keys (in HKLM/Software and HKCU/Software), or else use mount to experiment. -- Cliff -- 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/
