you should do all your argv processing before calling

Ok, but this was only a small test program to see if I manage to load
cygwin1.dll functions.
The plan is to do this in a DLL, later on. I guess cygwin_dll_init will

As far as I understand it, "linking" as defined by the GPL is when you
incorporate code into the running process space. If you keep them

Note that this just references loading cygwin1.dll and getting it
initialized. If you have your own DLL that depends on cygwin1.dll you
will probably first have to load and initialize Cygwin, and then load
your own DLL.

Hi all,
I need to build a DLL in cygwin (I use a lot of POSIX functions), that I
can use in MSVC and Borland CBuilder apps.
There are a lot of docs on the web, but most of them seem to be

The DLL will have to be loaded dynamically,
