Error compiling cygwin-snapshot-20020409-1

[Steve Howe]

Hello all,

        The lastest snapshot fixes the previous INVALID_FILE_ATTRIBUTES
issue but is
not compilable either... I tried to compile the latest cygwin but got the
following errors.
        Any clues?

Best Regards,
Howe

Obviously, this source file calls memset without including the
approapriate header file (string.h). I don't have the latest CVS sources to
verify this - what I've stated above is just and assumption based on
the gcc error message.

Btw no need to repeat ;)

Not so obvious at all.  How do you suppose I could generate a snapshot
if that was true?

If you can't check the source, why are you responding?

Since I can't see any reason for the error, I assume that the source
has been locally modified or the header files are screwed up.

>Btw no need to repeat ;)

That's for sure.

Basically, it seems to me that if you can't solve simple things like
basic compilation errors, you probably shouldn't be building cygwin
from scratch.

I say this because of the gcc error message.

Because I'm mean...

None of these. Why don't you try yourself ?

And you probably don't know know anything about me to say that.
And also you should do a working snapshot instead of being arrogant. You you
were so darn smart as you think the snapshot would be working. I just have
thousands of other things to do instead of making the software YOU develop
work. I guessed that could be a known flaw so I decided to ask fisrt before
trying to solve it myself.
If you can't help then just shutup instead. Do you have an orgasm when you
write those things ?

I don't have to.  I generated the snapshot.  I rebuild the sources on
an almost daily basis.

In case it isn't clear, you don't need to rebuild the snapshot to gain
use of the binary.  It's downloadable from the web site.

Do you think through what you are writing before you write it? How do
you think the binary snapshots get created? If the snapshot won't build,
neither source nor binary are made available on the web pages.

It works quite fine for several thousand other users thank you very
much. Is *your* install working correctly? I don't know, and given the
attitude you portray in the email I'm replying to - I don't care. Chris
has, on occasion, been somewhat tough, but has also on those occasions
apologised. In this case I think he has been helpful, direct and
responsive, and you are being - dare I say it - abusive in return.
Hardly the way to get what *YOU* want is it?

And you got an answer - It's not a known flaw. Wht's your problem?

> If you can't help then just shutup instead. 

Chris did help. I really cannot grasp why you are reacting in the manner
you have.
