I'm trying to compile a wonderful program ( command line ) to grab
videoes from youtube. It needs newt, a little utility. But when I try to
compile this utility I have the follewing errors :

Do you know if it is an unrecoverable error ( a limitation of cygwin )
that will not permit to install this utility ?

In the future, you could save a lot of time on the part of people that
might wish to help you by either pasting the contents of the above
mentioned lines or providing a link to the source tarball.  Or at the
very least specify the version you're trying to build.  Also, a proper
subject usually helps.

The offending construct is this:

static PyTypeObject snackFormType = {
        PyObject_HEAD_INIT(&PyType_Type)

PyType_Type is an object declared dllimport in Python.h as it's provided
by the main python DLL.  This is one of those differences between ELF
and PE, the address of a symbol from a shared library cannot be used as
a constant initializer in PE.  The testcase boils down to this:

$ cat >tc.c <<EOF
extern __attribute__((dllimport)) int fromdll;

typedef struct { int *foo; } foo_t;

static foo_t foo = { &fromdll };
EOF

$ gcc -c tc.c
tc.c:5: error: initializer element is not constant
tc.c:5: error: (near initialization for `foo.foo')

A little googling shows that apparently you can supply 0 to this
HEAD_INIT macro and the field will be initialized with the proper value
at runtime.  Google code search shows some instances where they define a
macro for this for documentation purposes:

#define DEFERRED_ADDRESS(ADDR) 0
...
static PyTypeObject foo = {
	PyObject_HEAD_INIT(DEFERRED_ADDRESS(&PyType_Type))

So, that would probably be the first workaround I'd try for porting this
library to PE.

Marcel,

We like to emphasize that cygcheck output should be _attached_ and that 
the attachment be plain text _not compressed_.

need hlep

my O.S. is win 2K.
I installed the cygwin with version bash -2.05
gcc 3.2-3, gsl 1.3-1

My assignment is to generate the random number
using c language.
however, when compile using gcc command it kept
on state that command not found

Anyone can help.

Please post exact command you've used and exact error message you've
obtained.
Also post output from `cygcheck -s -v -r` command.

Re: compile

[Ronald Landheer-Cieslak]

WAG in absence of the asked output from cygcheck:
<WAG>
You don't have gcc installed - install it using the Setup utility found 
at http://cygwin.com/setup.exe
you can find it under "Devel"
</WAG>

[Kris Powell]

Help!  I have downloaded cygwin for win95.  I am "Trying" to set up my own 
MUd on a rom2.4 base.  For some reason, that is unknown to me, every time 
after I compile (succesfully) I start up my MUD, and none of the completed 
code snippets are in!  Ie:  I had to change the MAX_STRINGS to include other 
area to increase the size of my MUD.  After I compile, I run my MUD, and get 
the error "MAX_STRINGS reached!"  I have changed the value for the 
MAX_STRINGS.  I have also put in other stuff, it compiles correctly, yet 
none of them work when I test my MUD.  Does anbody have any suggestions?
