"Sisyphus"<sisyphus1 at optusnet ...> Wrote:I've just installed a fresh "CYGWIN_NT-6.0-WOW64 desktop2 1.7.5(0.225/5/3) 2010-04-12 19:07 i686 Cygwin", including gcc-4 (4.3.4-3).
According to http://cygwin.com/packages/ there should be an executable named gcc.exe in there - but I see only gcc-4.exe. As a quick fix I've created a copy of gcc-4.exe named gcc.exe, and I expect that will work ok. (I've also done the same wrt cpp-4.exe, g++-4.exe and gcov-4.exe.) Is that what we're supposed to do ? ... or did I miss something ?
You need to add /etc/alternatives to your path.
I would not recommend this. There is always a symbolic link in '/usr/bin' for 'gcc' if it's been properly installed. There's no need to clutter your path regardless though. Just run 'sh /bin/set-gcc-default-4.sh' if you're missing '/usr/bin/gcc'.
