Subject: Updated: Cygwin 1.7.32-1
Date: Thu, 14 Aug 2014 10:29:00 -0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20140814102738.GA22430@calimero.vinschen.de> (raw)
Hi Cygwin friends and users,
I just released Cygwin 1.7.32-1.
This release comes with a few bug fixes in header files and a slightly
improved /proc/cpuinfo output, but otherwise it concentrates on a new
feature which isn't readily user visible. The new feature requires a
new GCC which will be released by Jon_Y shorty.
This combination, cygwin 1.7.32 / gcc 4.8.3-3, also allows to handle
C++11 thread local objects for the first time.
What's new:
-----------
- Export __cxa_atexit and __cxa_finalize to allow C++ standards-compliant
destructor handling in libstdc++ and g++ compiled code.
Please note that, in order to benefit from this new feature, C++ code
must be recompiled with the upcoming gcc 4.8.3-3 release which will
enable the -fuse-cxa-atexit flag by default, and that C++ applications
using this feature will not run on older Cygwin releases.
- Support more recent CPU flags in /proc/cpuinfo.
Bug Fixes
---------
- Decorate attribute names with __, for namespace safety in various header
files.

- Fix sys/file.h for using in C++ code.

To install 32-bit Cygwin use http://cygwin.com/setup-x86.exe
To install 64 bit Cygwin use http://cygwin.com/setup-x86_64.exe
The 64 bit Cygwin distribution doesn't yet come with as many packages
as the 32 bit version, but more packages will be available over time.
If you're already running a 32 bit version of Cygwin on 64 bit Windows
machines, you can continue to do so. If you're planning a new install
of Cygwin on a 64 bit Windows machine, consider to use the new 64 bit
Cygwin version, unless you need certain packages not yet available in
the 64 bit release.
Have fun,
Corinna
