 Thanks a lot for the reply.I installed everything in the "Devel" category.
 However,when I try to compile a cpp file using "g++ filename.cpp" Iam
getting the following error:

 /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-cygwin/3.3.3/../../../../i686-pc-cygwin/bin/ld:
cannot
find -luser32
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
