- Subject: How do I get an old version of cygwin?
My company has a small program that we use to pull data from files on
multiple OSes.
We use the latest version of cygwin on our own internal computers to run
under windows systems and this works fine.
However, one of our clients has an old version of cygwin that uses the
1.5.4 DLL. This is a DLL on a production box over which we have no
control. The client themselves just installs the product from another
vendor and it just works. This is not a full version of the cygwin
install. There are no build tools on this box.
My problem is that to support this client I need to get an install of
cygwin 1.5.4 onto a windows box so I can compile our program to run on
their production server.
I have tried to compile and just install the executable on their machine
and that doesn't work; the DLL is the wrong version. I have tried
copying their DLL over onto my box and get the error; all my installed
tools complain that there is a wrong DLL installed.
So, what I need is to install the exact DLL and build tools, all at the
same time onto a box. I am willing to do a checkout and build from CVS
if pointed to the directions on how to do this.
Thanks in advance!
