@section Linking with -lm or -lc leads to crash |
|
|
|
None at this time. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Currently, @code{/usr/lib/libm.a} and @code{/usr/lib/libc.a} are |
|
|
|
symbolic links to libcygwin.a, where this stuff is actually implemented. |
|
|
|
You need not explicitly link with -lm or -lc. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In fact, you @strong{must not} link with -lm or -lc, or your application |
|
|
|
will crash. This is a bug, and it is being worked on. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Providing empty stub libraries for libm.a and libc.a is not considered |
|
|
|
workable, because some packages look for symbols there. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
There are some discussions of this in the mailing list. See |

@section Ctrl-S hangs rxvt and xterm |

|

This is a bug in the Cygwin pty code. It should be fixed in the next |
|
|
|
release. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
@section dllwrap is broken |
|
|
|
|
|

Any invocation of dllwrap results in the error |
|

|
|
|
|
|
@code{/usr/bin/ld: warning: cannot find entry symbol __cygwin_dll_entry@@12} |
|
|
|
|

This should be fixed in the next release. For details and a workaround, |
