Re: Exposing new Kernel APIs

[Uwe Bonnes]

Hallo again,

thinking again, I did it myself.

Checking with i386-mingxxxx-nm on libkernel32.a showed me that
GetLongPathName was available. So I only had to add it to winbase.h
and mingw compile my programm successfull. Patch appended ( also I
guess it it already in Mumit's tree, nut perhaps helpfull for others).

Bye

Thanks for pointing it out.

I added GetLongPathName{A,W} just last week, so it'll be in the next 
mingw32+w32api runtime update.  My next patch to Cygwin's dev snapshots 
will include this as well.

Regards,
Mumit

Exposing new Kernel APIs

[Uwe Bonnes]

Hallo,

Win98 introduces 
GetLongPathNameA(LPCSTR,LPSTR,DWORD)
and NT has the coresponding W function too.

At least MingW32 doesn't know about this function:

hertz:/spare/bon/problems/getlong> i386-mingw32msvc-gcc -V
i386-mingw32msvc-gcc: argument to `-V' is missing
hertz:/spare/bon/problems/getlong> i386-mingw32msvc-gcc -v
Reading specs from /usr/local/lib/gcc-lib/i386-mingw32msvc/2.95.2/specs
gcc version 2.95.2 19991024 (release)
hertz:/spare/bon/problems/getlong> i386-mingw32msvc-gcc getlongpathname.c
/tmp/cc1tUoA2.o(.text+0x45b):getlongpathnam: undefined reference to 
`GetLongPathName'

What is needed to make cygwine recognize that function?

(I read the list only through the archive interface, so a CC to me
will speed up communication)

Thanks
