Went to a mirror and got /pub/sourceware/release/binutils-2.10.tar.gz. 2. Built & installed it over /cygwin/usr. That fixed the static linking problem but now my .dll fails to load right ! The circle begins - stuffed at the line of scrimage again ! Is that gcc-2.92.2-2 incompatible with the 6/00 "release" version of binutils ? Should I roll back to the 10/99 "release" version of gcc-2.95.2 ? What is considered stable ? How do I get in sync ? Thanks again. bisk Begin forwarded message: Date: Mon, 31 Jul 2000 14:52:50 -0400 From: DJ Delorie To: mlx@san.rr.com In-reply-to: <200007311832.AA09069@mlx.com> (message from MarketLogix on Mon, 31 Jul 2000 11:32:47 -0700) Subject: Re: Upgrading from b20.1 to 1.1.x - now my static linking fails ! > But some basic utilities were missing like env and mount so mount.exe is in cygwin env.exe is in shellutils both are in the net release. > Do you think that the setup/CD install/setup caused this problem ?

Yes, but for new installations you don't need both. > I don't remember what I chose as far as "dos text" vs. binary. > If there's a default, that's probably what I took.

No, just use "mount -f ..." to change the mount points. Read the online user's guide for info. I use text mounts. Chris uses binary mounts. Both should work. > I don't really have much to lose at this point ... I would suggest trying the CVS version of binutils. Else, use "gcc -S ..." to see if it's the compiler or the assembler or whatever that's messing up the symbols. -- Want to unsubscribe from this list?
