Greetingz,
[Context]
I use Cygwin strictly for the GNU C++ Compiler and the make-functionality,
so it makes no difference if I'm working under Linux or under Windows.
[Goal]
I want to achieve 1 single executable, independent of any other files.
[Problem]
I noticed that executables, generated by the GNU C++ Compiler (g++) can
only be run in coöperation with the file *cygwin1.dll*
[Question]
Is there a way to generate an executable which doesn't need this dll to
run? A special compiling-option perhaps? My knowledge of the whole
Cygwin-structure is too small to have a clear view on this subject.
Thanks,
