Re: Cygwin 1.5.10: Possible bug

I have come across a problem with cygwin (I think) which prevents it from being used to compile JNI bindings.

Or any DLLs that need to be loaded from non-Cygwin main programs (e.g. Sun Java). This has been a problem for several releases now, and no one (me included, I must confess) seems to find the time to narrow this down..


Your best bet may be to compile your JNI code with mingw (or use the -mno-cygwin option with the cygwin gcc). You won't be able to use a lot of POSIX system calls in this mode, but at least the resultant DLL should be loadable from non-cygwin main programs.
