    mingw-get source nonesuch -- fails silently

  • Keith Marshall Keith Marshall posted a comment on ticket #1648

    The command: $ mingw-get licence nonesuch exhibits a similar silent failure. Since both source and licence actions are processed within the same internal code path, the attached source-nonesuch.patch corrects both manifestations of this defect.

    winnt.h: #define for FILE_DELETE_ON_CLOSE is wrong.

  • Keith Marshall Keith Marshall posted a comment on ticket #2227

    I know this 6+ years old, but I've just stumbled on it again; clearly, no action was ever taken, and since Earnie is no longer playing an active rôle, I decided to follow up myself. Unfortunately, the original report appears to misrepresent fact — the cited MSDN reference does not stipulate a value of 0x4000000 for FILE_DELETE_ON_CLOSE; this is the documented value for FILE_FLAG_DELETE_ON_CLOSE ... a different entity, which does appear to be correctly defined, (albeit irrationally as an equivalent...

    mingw-get requires element feature

  • Keith Marshall Keith Marshall posted a comment on ticket #2070

    I don't understand the motivation for this request. Firstly, IMO, a requirements specification needs to be explicit, at least to the component level, (which your example isn't). Secondly, AFAICT, the existing mechanism fully supports the capability you appear to be seeking: <requires eq="mingw32-libgcc-*-mingw32-dll-1.tar" /> will match the currently installed version of the DLL component, with ABI version 1, (and, to me, ambiguity in an ABI version number makes no sense whatsoever); if there is...

  • Keith Marshall Keith Marshall posted a comment on ticket #2248

    FWIW, after a protracted disappearance — yielding HTTP error 404 — of MSDN documentation for the NMPGSCROLL structured data type, it has now reappeared on docs.microsoft.com, with the fwKeys field now documented to be of type WORD. There now seems to be no doubt that this was the correct resolution.

    Perl *** couldn't commit memory for cygwin heap, Win32 error

  • Keith Marshall Keith Marshall posted a comment on ticket #1596

    I'm sorely tempted to just close this, as "invalid". The "cannot commit memory for cygwin heap" is often a symptom of misuse: attempting to start MSYS utilities directly from cmd.exe, which is unsupported, instead of from a properly initiated MSYS shell session, as they should be used; the OP's use of backslashes in example path names strongly hints that he (or she) is engaged in precisely such improper usage. Other than that, I completely agree with you, Earnie, that there absolutely should not...

    [compile error]gettext still using nl_langinfo

  • Keith Marshall Keith Marshall posted a comment on ticket #1637

    Hmm. I must have overlooked this previously. I am aware of a conflict between the requirements of GNU gettext, and the minimal langinfo.h stub shipped with mingw-catgets-1.0-dev.tar.gz. Ideally, GNU gettext needs a more robust test, for the suitability of any pre-installed langinfo.h, but that would need an upstream resolution. Alternatively, our mingw-catgets needs to stop installing a publicly visible langinfo.h, but right now, that's a low priority issue for me, (in what is, after all, a contributed...

    Is this perhaps a user environment issue? I don't know, but I'm fairly certain Charles Wilson will not be pursuing it, (since he is no longer an active project participant); perhaps Cesar would care to comment? FWIW, running MSYS under wine seems like a fairly futile exercise, to me, but if the issue is reproducible in MSYS on Windows, (and the OP seems to indicate that it is), then some follow up action would appear to be appropriate.

  • Keith Marshall Keith Marshall posted a comment on ticket #1925

    I'm rejecting this, for the following reasons:– The original contributor, Charles Wilson, is no longer an active MinGW.org participant. mgwport never worked for me anyway, on my LinuxMint host. I prefer to promote mingw-pkg, (currently available here), as the modern replacement. You, yourself, have acknowledeged that there may be obstacles to adoption of this particular feature.

    Thanks for the test case.

    std::experimental::filesystem::rename does not overwrite existing file

  • Keith Marshall Keith Marshall posted a comment on ticket #2363

    GCC's own (upstream) documentation indicates that C++ filesystem support is a) experimental, and b) "rudimentary" (translation: "unlikely to work") on non-POSIX platforms (specifically Windows). Our GCC-6.3.0 distribution doesn't even attempt to support it, so I see no point in pursuing this any further.

  • Ville Koskela Ville Koskela posted a comment on ticket #1963

    I believe there may be a bug with /bin/start; the invocation of cmd /c should accept a single argument which is the entire command string. So the implementation: cmd //c start "$@" Should be: cmd //c "start $@" While start notepad works with both implementations, passing additional arguments to start such as /wait only works with the second implemetation. Specifically, $ start /wait notepad The current implementation returns a Windows dialog message stating that the file C:/MingGW/msys/1.0/wait cannot...

  • Keith Marshall Keith Marshall posted a comment on ticket #2363

    Thank you for this report. First, may I point out that this project (MinGW.org) does not distribute any version of g++ later than g++-6.3.0, so you clearly aren't using a product which have provided, and thus, we should hardly be expected to support it. That said, our own g++-6.3.0 distribution may well be similarly affected, so we may still benefit from follow-up. Without detailed investigation, I'm inclined to suggest referring this upstream, to the GCC libstdc++ developers/maintainers. On the...

    Without seeing the content of your /etc/profile, I couldn't possibly comment on likely cause. However, I observe that you appear to be using MSYS2 rather than MSYS. The former is an unofficial fork, which we neither sanction nor support. I'll assign this to our official MSYS maintainer for comment, but since you do appear to be using an unsupported fork, it is likely that he will simply close this as "invalid", (i.e. "not our problem").
