Subject: Re: Problem with releases since -37
Andrew,
Please do a manual file scan for multiple copies of
cygwin1.dll. Don't
tell me anything about paths, just do the search and report how many
copies you find.
For more info specific to this problem, see the following FAQ entry:
http://xfree86.cygwin.com/docs/faq/cygwin-xfree-faq.html#q-sta
tus-access-violation
I wouldn't doubt it if this problem is just exemplified by the new
randomness of things that happen in releases after -37. I would
actually be surprised if we introduced a bug, since the crash
seems to
be in cygwin1.dll.

I suddenly have a problem running one of the programs that
I run all the
time. As of release 37, it works fine (I just went back to
37 so that I can
run it). The program is ddd (a good graphical debugger,
for those who do
not know). When running it with versions since 37, it
crashes XWin before
even displaying the first window. I just tried it with -41
and it still
happens. If I debug it, I get the following error:
"Unhandled exception in XWin.exe (CYGWIN1.DLL):
0xC0000005: Access
Violation."
I can get this to happen at will, so if someone wants me to
try something, I
can do that. I do not, however, currently have source code
on my machine.
I have the bz2 from setup.
Thanks, everyone, for the wonderful product. I appreciate
the work you are
putting into it. One of these days, I will dig up enough
time to get and
understand the source code so I can contribute as well.
Until then, any
help you can give me would be appreciated.
