Christopher Faylor TimeSys, Inc. Changes since 1.5.16-1: cgf: Make cygcheck and strace work in a directory mounted with "mount -X". cgf: Fix handling of static destructors so that stdout is still open when they run. corinna: Make sure that correct attributes are set for socket attributes. cgf: Fix sporadic "multiple cygwin" problem when many processes are started from non-cygwin processes. corinna: Don't treat inability to open file as failure if only SetFileAttributes is going to be called. cgf: Fix problem with tty reads where vmin == vtime == 0. cgf: Fix problem where SYSTEMROOT was not being exported as it should be. corinna: Move address where cygwin shared structures live to just before where the cygwin DLL loads. cgf: Reorganize shared memory allocation to allow relocatability rather than fatal exit. cgf: Properly handle O_EXCL for fifos. pierre: Introduce framework for treating network (//sys/share) drives. This corrects a problem with "mkdir -p". cgf: Properly detect existence of //foo. corinna: Implement special handling for opendir(), readdir(), etc. for network shares so that "ls //" and "ls //share" do something useful. corinna: Preliminary implementation of kernel logging facility using /dev/kmsg. cgf: Export mkdtemp. cgf: Use better random algorithm when generating files and directories created by mk*temp(). brian: Make cygcheck report on installed services if the right version of cygrunsrv is available. cgf: Make dlopen search /usr/bin (for Windows compatibility) and /usr/lib (for UNIX compatibility). -- 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/
