I'm about to build another library called "liblo". This library uses various functions with names like getaddrinfo(), freeaddrinfo() etc (all of which are declared in /usr/include/gettaddrinfo.h). On my Linux box, these functions reside in 'libc.a' - but in Cygwin, they're in a different library, called 'libgetaddrinfo.a'.
Uh, what? getaddrinfo() is implemented in Cygwin itself, which is the equivalent of -lc and is implicitly included in every link, so you should need no such external library at all.
Initially, that's what I thought too Brian. They're part of libc when I compile under Linux but they're not there for Cygwin (and I only installed Cygwin a few weeks ago). I need to link to libgetaddrinfo. In fact I searched libc to find the function names but they aren't there.
