I apologize if I had already posted this question. However, I did not see my
own posting and I assume it never made it to the mailing list.
I see from the posting below that you are using startx. Hmmmm... I think
that is the command I use on Linux. I tried it on Win2003 server running
cygwin and there is no such command.
I'm using the command XWin.exe & and I'm trying to run the ddd debugger.
XWindows seems to start OK. I can run X utilities like the XClock.
However, when I try to start "ddd main_assert.exe" I get the "Error: Can't
open display:".
Someone in the cygwin@cygwin.com mailing list suggested I need to set the
display and then I was chastised for carrying on off topic.
Can someone help me run ddd? Currently, ddd is my only motivation for
running XWindows. I was told I needed to start the XWindows server before I
could run ddd.
Thanks,
Siegfried
