Parallel port raw IO


Hi,
  I have used cygwin for years but this is my first
time to use it for development. Hope someone here can
give me some light on this problem.

  Currently, I have to make some raw I/O access to the
parallel port in Windows NT/9X/XP. I want to use
cygwin instead of VC++ as my development environment.

  I have heard device I/O access in cygwin has problem
for a long time, both in functionality and
performance. Is it still a problem now? I just want to
have raw read write to parallel port and use select()
to detect when a parallel port interrupt comes.

  Thanks a lot.

Yours,
Jacky
