I have a small socket server application running on Linux. It uses Unix socket libraries and also do some file operations. I am wondering if I can compile it with Cygwin without any changes on my code? If yes, that means Cygwin is kind of tool to make an application being cross platform from Linux to Windows? So it cam replace ACE and Boost for those start from Linux? Please just send your comments to me if any if this question should not be posted here. thanks, James -- 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/
