I have cygwin 1.7.5 (up to date as of now) on Windows XP Pro SP3 and maven v 2.2.1. When I start mvn from a shell (I use mintty running bash): i get a warning: cygwin warning: MS-DOS style path detected: F:\winsux\prg\apache-maven-2.2.1/boot/ Preferred POSIX equivalent is: /cygdrive/f/winsux/prg/apache-maven-2.2.1/boot/ CYGWIN environment variable option "nodosfilewarning" turns off this warning. Consult the user's guide for more details about POSIX paths: http://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/using.html#using-pathnames I found it strange, since maven is cygwin aware and should use cygwin paths. Is this some bug? Regards, David PS: I use Sun JDK 1.6.0_20 as Java environment. -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
