1.3.6-6 & CVS: BUG: opendir() returns ENOTDIR whereas ENOENT would probably be a better choice...

[Alexei Lioubimov]

Hello,
I think i've found a bug in cygwin:
I can not use very important CVS command "cvs  co -r".
I tried a  "cvs co -r mytag myproj" and receive the following:

cvs [checkout aborted]: cannot open directory .../CVS/mypoj/Attic: Not a
directory

It is true -- since i have deleted nothing in myproj yet, i don't have Attic
in it.

I send this error to info-cvs mailing list and they said, that it is due to
opendir() implementation in cygwin (it returns ENOTDIR instead of
ENOENT in most cases :( ).

Will it be corrected in cygwin or in cygwin port of CVS?

Thank you,
Alexei Lioubimov

this program prints 'errno=2', which is correct ENOENT result.

#include <sys/types.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <dirent.h>
#include <errno.h>

int main()
{
  DIR* x = opendir ( "/tmp/wazoof" );
  if (!x)
    printf ( "errno=%d\n", errno);
}

care to provide a simple self-contained testcase?

Egor,
I just checked in a fix for this.  Are you using the latest CVS?

I already had a test case sitting around for this so it probably is a
regression and I probably should add something to the test suite.

argh, probably not. it looks like the problem was introduced with
fhandler_cygdrive thingie, and i was using earlier dll. sorry for
confusion.

would be nice. i'll try to dig out a testcase (i vaguely remember i
had one that needed some tweaking) and add it to testsuite.
