#11 dll not working on Win98/Cygwin
I have compiled the legos-0.2.6 util directory on my
Win98/Cygwin platform and I notice that firmdl3.exe
works fine in USB mode. However, dll.exe is not even
able to find the USB device. I have traced it down to the
following differences:
In firmdl.c there is this default value which works:
tty = "\\\\.\\legotower1";
In dll-src/loader.c this is this default value which
does not work:
tty="//./legotower1";
I think many are having problems compiling 0.2.6 on
Win/Cygwin, including myself, which is probably why this
has not been reported sooner.
When I use the first default value shown above in
loader.c then at least I can access the USB device (i.e.
the green lights come on.)
Thanks,
