As promised in <http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2006-02/msg00071.html>, the attached patch teaches cygcheck to follow symlinks when looking for executables, and also flags scripts. Sorry, had legal delays in sending this (as you can see, I had this working since 02/03). Comments welcome. Igor 2006-02-03 Igor Peshansky <pechtcha@cs.nyu.edu> * cygcheck.cc (LINK_EXTENSION): New macro. (check_existence): New static function. (find_on_path): Check for symbolic links if asked. (EXE_MAGIC,SHORTCUT_MAGIC,SYMLINK_COOKIE,SYMLINK_MAGIC): New macros. (is_exe,is_symlink,readlink): New static functions. (track_down): Only call dll_info() for executables, display an error for symlinks, and print magic number for others. (find_app_on_path): New static function. (cygcheck, dump_sysinfo): Call find_app_on_path() instead of find_on_path(). -- http://cs.nyu.edu/~pechtcha/ |\ _,,,---,,_ pechtcha@cs.nyu.edu | igor@watson.ibm.com ZZZzz /,`.-'`' -. ;-;;,_ Igor Peshansky, Ph.D. (name changed!) |,4- ) )-,_. ,\ ( `'-' old name: Igor Pechtchanski '---''(_/--' `-'\_) fL a.k.a JaguaR-R-R-r-r-r-.-.-.
