Only two points: - Not only rexec, but also inet_aton, inet_addr, inet_ntoa, inet_network are new functions. These are FreeBSD implementations which get us rid of the equal Winsock calls. - socklen_t is a typedef now. The socket functions using socklen_t are now declared with socklen_t instead of int in /usr/include/sys/socket.h. > Please test this (or any newer) snapshot and report any regressions from > 1.5.20 to this thread. > > http://cygwin.com/snapshots/ > > cgf Corinna -- Corinna Vinschen Please, send mails regarding Cygwin to Cygwin Project Co-Leader cygwin AT cygwin DOT com Red Hat -- 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/
