Steps:
- Install Windows 7 x64, with VS2008 + SP1.
- Install WiX 3.5 (Windows Installer builder), from
http://wix.codeplex.com/releases/view/60102; Wix35.msi.
- Install cygwin base.
- Add C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Installer XML v3.5\bin to your PATH
(via Control Panel)
- Open Cygwin Terminal
- Type 'candle' - terminal hangs. Apparently no new processes are kicked
off, per Task Manager.
With an older cygwin (I had 1.7.9(0.237/5/3) 2011-03-29 available), and
candle.exe runs correctly, showing the available command options.
I've tried working around this by executing 'cmd /c candle.exe ...' but
wind up with the same result, a hang.
Any ideas on workarounds or fixes?

Graham Perks.

Do note that this doesn't tell us a thing about exact steps performed.
Did you added that to system or user variables? Before or after Cygwin's own
/bin?

%Cygwin%/bin MUST be first in PATH.

Andrey, thanks for the reply.
I added the WiX path to the User path. Run Control Panel, type 'path' in
the search field, click "Edit Env Vars for your account", and create a new
PATH user variable containing just the WiX path.
The path ends up looking like this; with Cygwin at the start:
$ echo $PATH
/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/cygdrive/c/Windows/system32:/cygdrive/c/Windows:/c
ygdrive/c/Windows/System32/Wbem:/cygdrive/c/Windows/System32/WindowsPowerSh
ell/v1.0:/cygdrive/c/Program Files (x86)/Windows Installer XML v3.5/bin
If one wanted, you could skip the path change and just 'cd' to the WiX
location before attempting to run candle.exe. The path change happens to
replicate our build environment.
This hang appears to be a regression from 1.7.9 somewhere leading up to
1.7.15.
Thanks,
Graham.

Thought I'd mention that this bug cleared up after an upgrade to 1.7.16.
Thank you, Cygwin developers!
Graham.
