***BOGO*** Re: [Mingw-users] Trying to port a C Linux library to windows

["Mariano Martinez Peck" <marianopeck@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,
this is because Cygwin is designed from the ground up to be more
"unixy", functioning as an emulation layer of sorts, translating
traditional Unix calls to win32. Its also the reason Cygwin apps depend
on the Cygwin Runtime dll, cywin1.dll.

MinGW on the other hand provides a minimalist interface to MS's C
runtime, msvcrt.dll. It does not provide additional Unix calls other
than what is already supported by msvcrt.

Next time, please avoid top posting, thanks.

Very thanks for the explication JonY. 

Sorry about top posting.

thanks again,

Mariano
