In 64-bit land, the available address space for Cygwin DLLs is much increased. This should theoretically eliminate the "casual" overlap of address spaces for loaded DLLs, which was a common fork failure vector in 32-bit land. But the 64-bit version is susceptible to BLODA*, just like in 32-bits so I would recommend looking into that. -- Larry *BLODA = _____________________________________________________________________ A: Yes. > Q: Are you sure? >> A: Because it reverses the logical flow of conversation. >>> Q: Why is top posting annoying in email? -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
