Using Cygwin, how do I make eclipse recognize C's Socket library?
Hi,
I am trying to develop a simple program that uses Sockets. I have a windows machine and MUST use C++. I found out that I can use C's Socket (#include <sys/socket.h>) API calls, but this is only possible on a unix machine. So I installed Cygwin to imitate a unix environment on my windows machine. I already had MinGW on my machine, and now I have Cygwin too. I appended, to my system variable (Control Panel/System/Advanced/Environment Variables) called Path, C:\cygwin\bin.
Q1) How do I launch eclipse from "within cygwin" (ie. "bash")? I copied the eclipse folder from my C:\ drive to my cygwin folder, but when i CD into the eclipse folder and type eclipse.exe it says command not found (even though ls reports the exe).
Q2) How do I point eclipse to the socket.h file, which is located within my "home" root (ie. within C:\cygwin\ path). This question might not be relevant to this forum, but if you know a quick answer, here is a chance to score some quick karma cookies
Many thanks.

mhpath
mhpath(1) General Commands Manual mhpath(1) NAME
mhpath - print full pathnames of MH messages and folders (only available within the message handling system, mh) SYNOPSIS
mhpath [+foldername] [msgs] [-help] OPTIONS
Prints a list of the valid options to this command. DESCRIPTION
Use the mhpath command to display the full pathname of the specified folder. If you do not specify a folder, mhpath displays the pathname of the current folder. If you specify a message with its message number, mhpath displays the pathname of the specified message. You can also specify a number of messages, or a range of messages. If the top of the range that you specify is greater than the last message in the folder, mhpath displays as much of the specified range as possible. Additionally mhpath can take a keyword or a sequence name. The following keywords are acceptable: The first message in the folder. The last message in the folder. The message after the last message in the folder. You cannot use new as part of a message range. The current message in the folder. The message before the current message. The message after the current message. All of the messages in the folder. PROFILE COMPONENTS
Path: To determine your Mail directory EXAMPLES
In the following example, mhpath displays message 3 in the folder +inbox: % mhpath +inbox 3 /r/phyl/Mail/inbox The following example dis- plays the pathname of messages 2 to 5 in the current folder: % mhpath 2-5 /r/phyl/Mail/inbox/2 /r/phyl/Mail/inbox/3 /r/phyl/Mail/inbox/4 /r/phyl/Mail/inbox/5 FILES
