Hi,

Thanks to Corinna, Joe, Nicholas, Warren and especially Igor, this
script should now be good enough. I've successfully tested it on XP
only.

BTW, this version uses uname to get the OS - the most reliable way.
Also, if for some reason a user wanted to lie to the script, uname would
be the obvious choice without having to read to source.

$ mketc.sh
create symbolic link `/etc/hosts' to `/c/WINNT/system32/drivers/etc/hosts'
create symbolic link `/etc/protocols' to `/c/WINNT/system32/drivers/etc/protocol'
create symbolic link `/etc/services' to `/c/WINNT/system32/drivers/etc/services'
create symbolic link `/etc/networks' to `/c/WINNT/system32/drivers/etc/networks'

It works fine on W2K & NT4.

This works on Windows 98 (sort of):

BASH-2.05b$ uname -a
CYGWIN_98-4.10 FAETON 1.3.12(0.54/3/2) 2002-07-06 02:16 i686 unknown
BASH-2.05b$ ./make-etc-links.sh
create symbolic link `/etc/hosts' to `/cygdrive/c/WINDOWS/hosts'
create symbolic link `/etc/protocols' to `/cygdrive/c/WINDOWS/protocol'
create symbolic link `/etc/services' to `/cygdrive/c/WINDOWS/services'
create symbolic link `/etc/networks' to `/cygdrive/c/WINDOWS/networks'
BASH-2.05b$

However, two problems:

1) When the script has run, but created a link to a non-existent file, and
then run again:

BASH-2.05b$ ./make-etc-links.sh
/bin/ln: `/etc/protocols': File exists
BASH-2.05b$ ls /etc/protocols
/etc/protocols
BASH-2.05b$ [ ! -e /etc/protocols ]; echo $?
0
BASH-2.05b$ [ ! -L /etc/protocols ]; echo $?
1
BASH-2.05b$

The -e test apparently fails if the file is a symbolic link to a
non-existent file (is this a bug?).  I've attached the correction.

2) CYGWIN="check_case:strict"
As I suspected earlier, this fails -- the links are created, but an
attempt to cat the files results in "no such file or directory", and an
attempt to save the file after editing results in a write error.  On my
Windows 98, cygwin interprets the filenames for c:\windows\hosts, etc, as
all caps.  I don't know how important this is to pursue.

Why not just check for all the possible combinations [HOSTS, Hosts,
hosts]?  I use check_case:strict on a daily basis.  If you don't use
it, then you cannot compile gcj java programs at times.  Also, you
cannot bootstrap gcc with java enabled.  I think this is important
and heads of questions in the long run.

Your fix is not correct, as it still doesn't provide uniform
functionality across all patforms.  What should be done is to check
for hosts.sam and then copy that to hosts.  Failing that, the file
should be "touched" to provide a valid target.

Another problem I just discovered is that on WinME, "protocols" is
actually "protocol".  Dunno if this is the same for Win9x or not...

Cheers,
Nicholas

Ahem, there are 32 possible combinations for hosts, and 256 for networks,
services and protocols (windows only uses the first 8 letters).  I realize
that most of them are improbable, but for the script to be robust, it
should be able to handle any of them.

I also constantly use check_case:strict, which is why I raised the concern
in the first place.  On my 2k system, the following will return the
exact case: 'cmd /c "dir /b "`cygpath -w $file`'...  Can someone verify
that this (with the appropriate correction of "cmd" to "command.com", of
course) also works on 9x/ME systems?

Ah, I bet NT based ones would do also - if you were using the FAT file system.

I think this problem needs to be dealt with... and I'm starting to think that
modifying cygpath would be the cleanest way to achieve this.

The dangling symlink is the desired functionality.  Editing the file will
create the target.  You don't necessarily want the sample file as your
hosts.
My fix was to prevent trying to create a link if one already exists
(because its existence was not detected by 'test -e').  It had nothing to
do with the actual windows files.

Yes, it's the same even on Win2k.  The 'expr substr $FILE 1 8' in the
script takes care of that.

How exactly are you proposing to modify cygpath?  cygpath translates
windows paths to unix-style, and back.  There is nothing in the cygpath
spec that says that the path should already exist...  "cygpath -W" already
returns the correct case for the path to windows, I'm actually more
concerned about the filenames and the "/system32/drivers/etc" bit.  I
suppose the directory case could be determined by using a "(cd && pwd)"
pair...

Igor,

Sorry, should have been clearer about this: modifying cygpath to add a feature to
get the correct case for a path. Perhaps we could figure a way to use "dir /b" -
but I'm sure other people will hit this same issue in the future and would
appreciate such a feature in cygpath. If you agree this is a good idea, I'm
prepared to do the groundwork.

Failing that, I think it would be ok to assume that the path will either be all
caps or all non-caps - corresponding to FAT or NTFS. Anyone tweaking the case of
such paths/files on NTFS quite deserves their fate!

BTW, I'm subbed to cygwin so you don't need to keep copying me on mails.

Oh, I see, add a modifier similar to '-s', so that it verifies the case of
each element in the path...  Yeah, that could work, something like:
  -e, --exact-case      print exact case of NAME

I'm not sure how to implement this, though...  If you have ideas, I'd be
interested in hearing them.

Well, on my Win2k machine, the exact case is as follows:
C:\WINNT\system32\drivers\etc\hosts.  Notice that "WINNT" is all caps.  I
use NTFS, and this is apparently the default setup.

Oops, sorry, this is the default in my mailer.  I'll be more careful.

Yep, exactly. Now, cygpath seems to generally not hit the filesystem - cygpath
c:/complete/crap gives me /c/complete/crap so using that switch will
necessarily involve a performance hit. Given that, I think I'm happy with my
solution based on dirent/strcasecmp. I've attached a stand-alone utility that
seems to work (just on cygwin paths), although it has the side effect of
squishing down multiple slashes ///like////this//path down to /like/this/path.

I think it would be ok to restrict --exact-case to cygwin paths.

I don't think there's a need to search the directory yourself.  Upon
browsing the cygpath code some more, I realized that it is doing exactly
what we need (i.e. convert to the exact path) when returning the system
directory (the '-S' flag).  Quoting the code (cygpath.cc:396):

    case 'S':
      GetSystemDirectory (buf, MAX_PATH);
      FindFirstFile (buf, &w32_fd);
      strcpy (strrchr (buf, '\\') + 1, w32_fd.cFileName);
      break;

So we can do the same trick with each filename when our option ('-e') is
in effect.  I'm looking at a fix to cygpath now, and will submit a patch
as soon as I have it ready.

On a separate note, I found that "cygpath -l -w <path>" does not work on
my Win2k SP2 system, returning the same garbage (hex 20 FB 22 0a)
regardless of the path.  Anyone else have that problem?

Well, after further reading of the code and experimenting I've determined
two things:
1) the '-l' option of cygpath works in the cvs HEAD, and
2) it does exactly what we need (thanks, Corinna).

So we can use $(cygpath -u $(cygpath -l -w "$WINETC/$WFILE")) in the
script.  This would require people to upgrade to the new cygpath (which
they would have to anyway, if they were to use the option we proposed),
which means that this script can not be released before the next cygwin,
but that is probably fine.  New version and diff attached.
	Igor
P.S. I'm racking my brain trying to figure out why -l didn't work for me
in version 1.21 of cygpath, but did in version 1.22.  As far as I could
see, the only changes to cygpath were some added newlines...

Whoops, forgot to quote the strings.  Better correct it.  New version
attached.
As for the '-l' in 1.21 issue, there were changes to newlib which have
probably fixed some string bug that caused this.

Release candidate 2: /etc/hosts

Cool... I've just modified your code to correct case on $WINETC before we do the
directory check. This has the side-effect of catching the cygpath bug without
creating any links.

As for the script name, given the scope of /etc/postinstall I think it should
contain the package name. Someone suggested mketc.sh and that's fairly
consistent with the old-skool MKDEV script. So I think it should be called
cygwin-mketc.sh.

How come your script works when cygpath is called inside $(...) but not
backticks?

Paul, the bug was not in cygpath, but somewhere in newlib (apparently).
The only fault of the current cygpath is that it was compiled on June 6,
against faulty libraries.  This should not be a problem in the new release
of cygwin.  So, the check is redundant (or, in any event, the message is
wrong -- you can't upgrade cygpath; it should be "upgrade to new cygwin").
It does not speed up the script, either, since the $WINETC directory will
still be processed and corrected every time cygpath is called.

Fair enough.  If I read the name correctly, this script would become part
of the cygwin package.  In this case the cygpath message is really
redundant and needs to be taken out altogether.  That message only makes
sense if the script is in a package other than cygwin (so people can
install it without updating cygwin).

> How come your script works when cygpath is called inside $(...) but not
> backticks?

The backtick syntax does not allow recursive invocations.  If we want to
use the backtick syntax, we should use something like

    WFILE="`cygpath -w -l "$WFILE"`"
    WFILE="`cygpath -u "$WFILE"`"

I've attached the message correction.  If this is really part of cygwin,
please take it out altogether, along with the translation of $WINETC.

Installing cygwin-mketc.sh

[Paul Johnston]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 656 bytes --]

Hi,

How does cygwin install decide where to put files? I was expecting some kind
of map file mapping object files to installed files, but I couldn't find one.
I can see we want cygwin-mketc.sh to end up in configure's $sysconfdir but
beyond that I'm just getting lost

Ok, I've taken out the message, but NOT the case translation of $WINETC. The
case translation must be done before the directory existence check, or the
check might fail. I think this has got to be the final version of the code
now.

map file mapping object?

I'd have thought /etc/postinstall would be where it needs to be.

If folks agree, I can add your script as part of one of the base-
packages I'm putting together...

base-files (a replacement /etc/profile)
base-passwd (a replacement 'create password/group' script)

but I'm unsure as to which would be best.  Rob?  Christopher?

BTW,

$ cygpath -w -l "/cygdrive/c/WINNT/system32/drivers/etc"
 u"

This doesn't work (on my system at least :).  It was fine upto
attempting the -w -l...

(cygcheck -s attached).

The same thing happens with WFILE.

Paul,
The real reason we need the case translation is for the links is that if
the user doesn't have "check_case:strict" when installing, but later sets
it, the links will still work.

If "check_case:strict" is in effect, the case translation will fail
anyway.  And if it's not in effect, then the directory existence check
will succeed as well.  So the translation is redundant.  But it doesn't
hurt (maybe slows the script down a bit), and in a post-install script
performance is not an issue, so let's leave it in.

However, this reminds me - we had to turn off "check_case:strict" for the
duration of the script for it to work at all with non-standard file and
directory cases!  Something like

  CYGWIN="$CYGWIN check_case:relaxed"; export CYGWIN

I meant to do this one, but completely forgot.  New version attached.

John,

If you trace this thread back a bit, you'll see that the cygpath that was
distributed with the current release of cygwin (compiled on July 6) is
broken.  Why it's broken is a mystery to me, as I've just recompiled it
from the 1.3.12-2 source package (using the w32api-1.5-1 sources), and it
works.  Can anyone shed some light on this?

I'm attaching a newly recompiled executable for the trusting souls.  Those
with a bit of healthy paranoia are welcome to recompile it themselves. ;-)
