Subject: Bash local builtin and redirection problems
Date: Sat, 21 Sep 2002 18:04:00 -0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <5.0.2.1.0.20020922103312.00a6a850@fox.uq.net.au> (raw)
I have successfully installed Cygwin on Windows 2000 SP3. However, when I
attempt to run a bash shell script that works fine under Linux, two
problems occur.
1. The bash "local" builtin does not seem to work. Error message is "local:
not found".
2. Both shorthand formats "&>file" and ">&file" for redirecting standard
output and standard error do not work. However, the longhand equivalent
">file 2>&1" does work.
Strangely, both of the above features work from the bash command line (but
not from a shell script).
Cygwin version is 1.3.12-4.
Bash version is 2.05b-5. An earlier version 2.05a-3 also fails.
