Hi,
Am in a process of porting an UNIX application to
WINNT. I have installed cygwin too. What are the
commands needed to execute the task which i have
specified.

If possible let me know where i can get the commands
to execute.

with regards
G.Ganesh

As someone else already answered, porting from Unix to Cygwin is the same task
than porting from Unix to another Unix. i.e. you must compile your application
under Cygwin to make an executable (which will be actually a WinNT executable).
If your application is written in C, it will be easy, since the gcc compiler is
installed by default under Cygwin.

You know how to port from one UNIX to another?  Do the same to port
to Cygwin. Treat it just as another UNIX.  The usual command set,
the usual API. And slightly different from other UNICES as usual.
The rule is: Try POSIX, if that fails try SUSv2, if that fails
try Linux, if that fails, ask.
