ok so i am working on a firmware updater. It is already written but it uses cygwin to make some unix commands/labraries available. My problem is that the cygwin stuff is crashing when I try to update an embedded system. I would like to completely remove all of the cygwin stuff and convert everything to win32. any help/recommendations on where i can get help (sites, etc) would be awesome!
This is obvius example that Linux is better than Windows. Despite it, you are trying to destroy everything Linux has, and then coding stupid converted code full of bugs for Windows. "Nothing lasts forever!", but this can't be applied to Windows!!! Can it ?

Are you talking about the GUI, or the "meat" of your program?
For the GUI - The Forger's Tutorial, and the book Programing Windows, by Charles Petzold. And, of course there's MSDN.
For the "meat", I assume you're writing a kernel mode driver?
Yes, it is a kernal mode driver with a GUI wrap. the GUI works fine, but I need to remove all of the UNIX commands. the stuff that is giving me the most problems is in the unix standard libraries (sys/unistd).
i have taken care of a few things but i am very very stuck on termios.h. i dont know what win32 library i could us to get the equivalent commands.
there are no equivalent win32 functions. We windows programmers don't normally bother with such details because ms-windows os does not (normally) support multiple consoles and console types off the same machine like *nix does.Originally Posted by dynomyte

Which bits of termios are you interested in - baud rate?
If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.
yeah i have declared the paud rate variable as unsigned but the baud table is giving me lots of problems.
that is what i dont know how to take care of...any suggestions?Code:gBaudTable[] = { { B50, 50 }, { B75, 75 }, { B110, 110 }, { B134, 134 }, { B150, 150 }, { B200, 200 }, { B300, 300 }, { B600, 600 }, { B1200, 1200 }, { B1800, 1800 }, { B2400, 2400 }, { B4800, 4800 }, { B9600, 9600 }, { B19200, 19200 }, { B38400, 38400 }, { B57600, 57600 }, { B115200, 115200 }, { B230400, 230400 } };
also there is thsi call
and it uses the tcgetattr command and that is unique to termiosCode:struct termios attr;
