gcc links to libcmain when generating a dll

Hi Brian; I'm trying to track down the gcc linker (ld) manual. Any idea where I can find it? I've looked at the gcc site (gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/) and it's not there. I did a google search and found a 1998 linker manual. I looked at the local cygwin (/usr/share/doc) and there's no ld. You

gcc links to libcmain when generating a dll

I can't figure this one out. > clear;g++ -flinker-output=dyn -o slip.dll *.o generates: /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-cygwin/12/../../../../x86_64-pc-cygwin/bin/ld: /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-cygwin/12/../../../../lib/libcygwin.a(libcmain.o): in function `main': /usr/src/debug/cygwin-3.6.1-1/winsup/cygw

cp -rup fails if a file/directory exists

cp -rup dir /h/ works for version 8.23-4 but for version 8.24-1 it produces an error " cannot create directory '/h/dir': File exists", where 'dir' is a directory and '/h/' is a flash drive. Is there something I can do to force a save? I do not want to delete then save, I'd rather update a file/dir

Is there a tool for viewing all cygwin/GNU Software submissions

Is there a general tool that will allow someone to see the definition of all software in cygwin and allow browsing of libraries for content? If there is not, how can I go about creating one (any ideas)? What I would like to see for executables is a setup-like tool to pretty print information on al

TeX WYSIWG Editor

Are there any TeX WYSIWG editors? In particular, ones that support managing changes in a distributed environment (as a minimum)? Changing TeX documents seems tedious (without a WYSIWG) if doing it by hand. Wordperfect and Microsoft Word hid the font/formatting commands from the user to produce a WY

RE: Re: Question on gcc install

Hi JonY; I hope that this clarifies some of the thing yous mentioned (as well as others unmentioned). None of the toolchains are multilib capable, so -m32/-m64 is not going to work. See also http://wiki.osdev.org/Target_Triplet "> info gcc -> Option Index" shows -m32 and -m64 as valid Opti

Re: Question on gcc install

Hi Larry; I think I mislead you. Netbeans is quite comfortable with cygwin, and I believe demands it in a Windows environment. What Netbeans requires is the exact oath to use for gcc, g++, gfortran, the assembler, make file, gdb, and qmake (optional). The make file path and gdb are invariant. The

Win7 gcc 4.8.3 Netbeans 7.4 Hi Csaba; I used setup.exe. The issue and confusion arise because I am using the Netbeans IDE, and Netbeans requires explicit reference to the gcc, g++, fortran compilers and assembler being used. I am running into difficulties. 1: mingw fails to link correctly. Hund

Question on gcc install

Does gcc delete old version of their software during an install. I just installed gcc/mingw 4.8.3-2 and have all versions from 4.7.3 to 4.8.3-2 but (I think) only libraries and etc. for 4.8.3-2. Am I responsible for deleting these older references? Will these older references work with the newer li
