Thank you for your reply, that was the first email :)
Ok. We'll try linking the app with cygwin1.dll.
Please make sure to build the entire application within the cygwin
environment, ie. using the cygwin compiler.
You said the biggest issue would be WSA2, but I see
you use libusb.
Do you know if we are going to have problems with hardware
detection/communication (SIMTrace board) under Windows?
I don't think you will have problems, libusb-1.0 works on Windows as
long as you make sure to:
1. Use the WinUSB.sys kernel driver from Microsoft for the device
2. Build and use libusb-1.0.dll from
http://git.libusb.org/libusb.git
rather than another version of the code
Please let me (or Trac at
https://libusb.org/ ) know if there are
some issues. libusb-1.0 should work fine for SIMtrace on Windows,
both in and out of cygwin.
Note that cygwin might or might not be very up to date with the
libusb source code. I would suggest not to bother with testing it,
and go straight for building the libusb.git source.
