[PATCH 4/4] Cygwin: include/cygwin/limits.h: new header

Ken Brown kbrown@cornell.edu
Fri Jan 29 19:24:21 GMT 2021


The new header defines some Cygwin-specific limits, using private
names.  It is included by include/limits.h.

For example, we now have

  #define __OPEN_MAX 3200

in include/cygwin/limits.h and

  #define OPEN_MAX __OPEN_MAX

in include/limits.h.  The purpose is to hide implementation details
from users who view <limits.h>.
