Let me see if I can pose the question correctly. I would like to
use a cygwin environment from a perl script. I have a build
environment that works in a cygwin window. What I'm in the process of
trying to do is write a perl script that can be started from the Task
Scheduler. The perl script cd to a directory and cvs co a module. Once
the module is checked out I'm trying to use a system call to kick off my
make ie system("//c/cygwin/bin/make all"). This piece is failing, I
believe, because the system call is going out and using an NT
environment not a Cygwin env. Does anyone know how I can get this to
what I want.
Thanks,
John
