Hi Earnie,

Sorry, I ask probably not in right place...


The problem is: 
GDB distributed with last NetCygwin can't start not GNU-Compiled
programs...

It come with message:

> "/cygdrive/c/virtuald/hello.exe": not in executable format: File format not > recognized

I compiled Insight-5.0 (with CYGWIN under W98) and it can't do it too.


But Insigth from Mumit-site
( ftp://ftp.xraylith.wisc.edu/pub/khan/gnu-win32/cygwin/ports/insight-19991101-cygb20.tar.gz )
can it!
(and GDB from mingw from Mumit can too).

Can You forward my msg to right place?


Serge

P.S. To complile Insight it was nessecary to recompile
sed, gdb (with my path) and load und install libtool.
If anyone want to have it (recompiled sed,make,insight-5.0,
Gygnus-configured
libtool - all builds with GCC under W98) I will be happy to share.
