This is a test release. To get it in setup.exe or setup64.exe, you'll have to click on the "Exp" radio button at top right of the "Select Packages" window. This is the first update of screen in Cygwin since the last official upstream release, version 4.0.3, back in 2005. Although version 4.1.0 isn't officially released, development has continued and there are many fixes and new features in this Cygwin release: * The much-requested vertical split feature is now supported upstream and available in this release. * All the old crufty patches that used to be needed to get screen to work in Cygwin, are apparently no longer needed now. Both Cygwin and screen have matured a lot in the last 8 years, so I take this as a good sign. * And I'm sure lots more stuff in the last 8 years that I don't know about. Please test this release, and report here how it's working for you. I'll be using it for my daily work now, and if there are no major complaints after a few weeks, I'll move it from test to current. screen is a terminal multiplexer and window manager that runs several separate 'screens' on a single physical character-based terminal. Each virtual terminal emulates a DEC VT100 plus several ANSI X3.64 and ISO 2022 functions. You can create multiple windows with any programs in them, kill the current window, switch between windows or copy text between them, view a list of active windows, rename windows, view scrollback history, and more. You can detach your session and even log out if you wish; your programs will keep running, and you can reattach later, maybe when logged in from a different host. Andrew E.

The first utility is a more powerful replacement for the venerable 'run' utility that has long been a part of the cygwin distribution. The second is a test utility that detects whether an Xserver is active, and exits with an appropriate status value. 'run2' launches console programs while hiding any actual console (dos box) that may ordinarily be associated with them. In addition, 'run2' can: * set/modify environment variables before launching the target program * specify a start directory from which to launch the target * detect whether an X server is active or not, and launch one of two different targets -- with different command line arguments, environment settings, and startup dirs. 'run2' uses an external XML configuration file to control its own operation, and to specify the settings which should be applied to the target program(s).

IMPORTANT NOTE: =============== The previous 2.1.25-1 package included an ABI change from upstream without updating the DLL names. This can cause problems with other packages that were compiled against the earlier version of cyrus-sasl (e.g., exim or openldap). Users of those packages should downgrade their libsasl2 package to 2.1.23-1 to avoid any problems. This update includes a new libsasl2_3 package that can be installed in parallel with the older libsasl2 package. CYGWIN CHANGES: ============== * Re-enable PostgreSQL support. DESCRIPTION: ============ SASL is the Simple Authentication and Security Layer, a method for adding authentication support to connection-based protocols. To use SASL, a protocol includes a command for identifying and authenticating a user to a server and for optionally negotiating protection of subsequent protocol interactions. If its use is negotiated, a security layer is inserted between the protocol and the connection. See http://cyrusimap.org/ for more information.

These are -3 packages because there were two informal test releases prior to this. Because it is a "test" release, you have to select it specially from the setup.exe packages screen. You still get 3.7.16.2-1 by default. Aside from tracking the upstream .17 release, this Cygwin build does many things, which is why I am going through a multistage test sequence. This is the last stage before final release. Heretofore, Cygwin SQLite has been built in "Cygwin mode," where SQLite bypasses the Cygwin DLL for some calls, particularly in regards to file locking. These calls go straight to the Win32 API. This lets Cygwin SQLite do file locking the same way native Win32 builds of SQLite do, so that any pair of programs can cooperate in their use of a single DB file, regardless of which version of SQLite they are built against. I did once (3.7.12.1-1) ship Cygwin SQLite built the other way, in "Unix mode," which forces the SQLite code to treat Cygwin as any other POSIX platform. This has the benefit that file locking works the way POSIX programs expect, but it breaks compatibility with the huge number of programs built against native SQLite. This gave me a choice of evils: I could choose to break compatibility with native Win32 programs, or I could break compatibility with other Cygwin programs. I chose the second option, simply because there are more native Win32 programs than Cygwin programs using SQLite. This impasse was broken -- we hope -- by a feature added by Corinna in Cygwin 1.7.19 and extended in 1.7.20. It allows a program -- such as Cygwin SQLite -- to request that the DLL do file locking in a way more compatible with native Windows programs. This release uses this new feature by default, so that despite being built in Unix mode, it should still interoperate with native Windows programs that also use SQLite. You do require Cygwin 1.7.20 to properly test this new package. The variant of the feature in 1.7.19 doesn't work for SQLite, so this -3 test release no longer has code to attempt to enable it. (The original version of this new feature may still be useful to other programs, so it hasn't been removed from the Cygwin DLL.) These new packages will still run under Cygwin 1.7.18 and earlier, but they will behave the same as the ill-fated SQLite 3.7.12.1 release in regards to locking. If you have had problems in the past with SQLite interoperability with native Windows programs, please test with this new release. You shouldn't have to do anything to test its interoperability with native Windows programs. If your interop problems were with other Cygwin programs, then you want to set the new CYGWIN_SQLITE_LOCKING environment variable to "posix". (Case doesn't matter.) This will suppress Cygwin SQLite's call to the new Cygwin API, so it behaves like a stock Unix mode build. Because this test release removes the "posixmand" feature, if you tested the -1 or -2 releases, I ask that you re-test with -3. I believe you will see no change, but y'all are the ones with all the important test cases. :) This version of Cygwin SQLite also makes one other big, potentially breaking change: temporary files are created in-memory exclusively, by default. There is some concern that this could cause problems with huge DB files on 32-bit Cygwin. If this version of SQLite fails with some out-of-memory error with your DB, there is a pragma you can set to make it behave the old way: https://www.sqlite.org/pragma.html#pragma_temp_store If setting this pragma to 1 fixes such an error, I want to hear it! (I'd also be curious to know how big the DB file is, and how much RAM there is in your machine.) Note that this isn't the same thing as loading the entire DB into RAM. If your DB is, say, 5 GB, you needn't worry about 4 GB memory limits in 32-bit systems. The problem should only come up with DB files much bigger than this, so that it needs gigs just to store its temporary working data. The open question is what that ratio is, between DB file size and working set size. It is doubtless dependent on the queries you run, and probably on other things like indexing. </pre> Warren Young 2013-06-11T14:59:01 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.os.cygwin.announce/4593 <pre>The following packages have been updated for the Cygwin distribution: *** vim-7.3.1152-1 *** vim-common-7.3.1152-1 *** vim-minimal-7.3.1152-1 *** xxd-7.3.1152-1 *** gvim-7.3.1152-1 Vim is an advanced text editor that seeks to provide the power of the de-facto Unix editor 'Vi', with a more complete feature set and a choice of terminal and GTK+ interfaces. This is an update to last week's upstream patchset, with the following packaging changes: * The 'vi' binary now uses ~/.virc and /etc/virc instead of vimrc to avoid errors with configuration options not supported by 'vi'. * gvim on x86_64 uses the GTK+ interface. </pre> Yaakov (Cygwin/X 2013-06-10T22:47:20 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.os.cygwin.announce/4592 <pre>The OCaml packages have been updated to the upstream release 4.00.1.

An instance of the Text::CSV_XS class will combine fields into a CSV string and parse a CSV string into fields. The module accepts either strings or files as input and support the use of user-specified characters for delimiters, separators, and escapes.

BACKWARD COMPATIBILITY NOTE =========================== Cygwin shutdown gives a POSIX/Linux-like shutdown experience and tries to mimic the common Linux shutdown command line options as much as possible. Therefore the short option for --hibernate has been changed from -h to -b and -h is now the short for --halt. FULL CHANGELOG (from shutdown-1.9-1) ==================================== * Changed the short option for hibernate from -h to -b. * Added -h, --halt as additional option for shutdown and -c, --cancel as additional option for abort. * Updated shutdown.8 man pages to reflect these changes. * Fixed typo: changed text InitateSystemShutdown to InitiateSystemShutdownEx in the two usage() functions in shutdown.c and in shutdown.8 and reboot.8 Regards, Frank *** CYGWIN-ANNOUNCE UNSUBSCRIBE INFO *** If you want to unsubscribe from the cygwin-announce mailing list, look at the "List-Unsubscribe: " tag in the email header of this message.

This is a content update and feature enhancement. NOTE that you will have to explicitly install cygutils-x11 and cygutils-extra, to retain equivalent functionality as the old cygutils package. This change was necessary to avoid certain dependency issues. CHANGES (from cygutils-1.4.12-1) ================================ * Split into multiple subpackages to simplify dependencies - cygutils contains only cygstart, mkshortcut, readshortcut and is in the Base category. - cygutils-x11 contains the (X11) desktop integration files and has relatively heavyweight dependencies, and is in the X11 category. - cygutils-extra contains the rest of the utilities and documentation, and is in the Utils category. TODO (call for patches): ================================ * Update (some?) utilities to handle unicode filenames, similar to IWAMURO Motonori's work on cygstart. Which utilities need this? mkshortcut and lpr, probably. Any others? -- Charles Wilson volunteer cygutils maintainer for cygwin ==================================================================== To update your installation, click on the "Install Cygwin now" link on the http://cygwin.com/ web page. This downloads setup.exe to your system. Then, run setup and answer all of the questions. *** CYGWIN-ANNOUNCE UNSUBSCRIBE INFO *** If you want to unsubscribe from the cygwin-announce mailing list, look at the "List-Unsubscribe: " tag in the email header of this message.

What's new: =========== - Drop support for Windows 2000 and Windows XP pre-SP3. - Add support for building a 64 bit version of Cygwin on x86_64 natively. - Add support for creating native symlinks (CYGWIN=winsymlinks:native or CYGWIN=winsymlinks:nativestrict). - Add support for the AFS filesystem. - Preliminary support for mandatory locking via fcntl/flock/lockf, using Windows locking semantics. New F_LCK_MANDATORY fcntl command. - New APIs: __b64_ntop, __b64_pton, arc4random, arc4random_addrandom, arc4random_buf, arc4random_stir, arc4random_uniform.

Fixes: http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2013-05/msg00157.html - In fork, call CreateProcessW with the same command line as the parent process. This seems to make sure the stack is created in the same memory location as in the parent.
