Hello, I have posted my problem to the Cygwin mailing list, and have been told by the person who handles the gcc installation that it doesn't seem to be their issue. I am hoping that someone on the gpc list will be able to help me.
I have a number of pascal files that must be compiled to be tested, and am having a hard time doing so. I have installed Cygwin base (version: 1.5.24) on my Windows Server 2003 system and have added all packages that I can think would be useful for this compilation. I am attaching the output of a run of cygcheck so that you can see the environment I have installed. All installed packages are listed at the bottom of the file.
Using gpc to compile code which contains the statement "Uses Crt", I get over 600 error lines. I am attaching also attaching the output that I am getting from my compilation, as well as a test file that I have created which gives me these errors.
Your problem is ncurses. I was never able to get things working properly with ncurses under Cygwin, and so moved to pdcurses. You might want to try pdcurses yourself.
You can find my Cygwin binaries (and sources) here: http://gnu-pascal.de/contrib/chief/win32/cygwin/
The binaries: http://gnu-pascal.de/contrib/chief/win32/cygwin/pdcurses-2.6- 2-cygwin-bin.tar.gz
After extracting them into your Cygwin "/" directory, add these to your command line: "-I/usr/pdcurses/include -L/usr/pdcurses/lib"
