americans out there) and this still seems to be a problem for me. When
issuing command /c set I get my path cut off after 4 characters, cmd /c set
however works fine. From what was dicussed in the mentioned thread this is
likely to be causing the eclipse tooling to hang.
Thanks in advance

Found something that might be of interest here:
On my Windows 2000 SP 3 system, "command.com /c set" results in truncated
data coming back for a number of the larger environment variables, most
notably PATH, especially when entries in the path had spaces in the
pathnames.
Had the hanging problem on the latest build (10/02), with "command.com /c
set" returning my PATH as:
PATH=C:\PRO
That's all, truncated right there, no obvious reason why. Got beyond this
by juggling things around in the path such that mingw and msys were near the
start, and the entries with spaces in the pathnames were at the end.
Interestingly, "cmd /c set" on this system returns complete data for all
environment variables, no truncation. Perhaps one of the Windows wizards
could shed some light on this.

Hi Stephan,
The referenced is probably misleading/out of date.
I tried to debug the same thing and the code actually no longer does
"command.com /c set",
instead it knows to use "cmd /c set" correctly.
In my case, (Alex helped me debug and did the fixes) it was because
my environment was larger than 4K. You might want to try getting your
environment variables down below 4K.
See the thread "CVS tags for builds and java/Exception bug in
Win32ProcessEx.c"
specifically the posts on "1/15/2003 5:10pm" and "1/16/2003 12:53pm" for the
final
fix (until it gets into a driver) that fixed the problem for me.

Could you please elaborate your message?
1) Do you experience hanging during build process? If yes, could you please
provide a little bit more details? Is it possible to get sample project from
you?
2) command.com is deprecated command for Win2000. I guess it exist for DOS
compatibility. Why do you try to use it? In CDT we use cmd.exe for Windows
2000.

I've installed F1 from the downloads site from eclipse. Currently my path is
weighing in at 4020 bytes which is under the 4k limit mentioned in the
newsgroups: CVS tags for builds and java/Exception bug in Win2Process.ex.c.
This is with all paths reduced to short path names.
I create a new c++ project in wsad v5. I then try to create a file called
hello.cpp this is when it attempts to invoke make and wsad just hangs with
no cpu usage. The crash comes whenever I try to create a file or anything
that kicks off invoking make. I have cygwin installed from www.cygwin.com in
the directory c:\utils\cygwin and my path points to c:\cutils\cygwin\bin
If you need I'll try and create a project where this is re-creatable, but I
do not believe it is due to the project settings themselves, I'm just using
the defaults. I thought that the problem may have been the command /c set
but I've been corrected regarding this.
Now I'm not really sure what is going wrong, maybe it's wsad 5??
Thanks in advance

I don't understand: is 4020 a size of your PATH, or total size environment
(all that set command displays)?
Could you also try the latest version of spawner.dll and starter.exe (I
attached both to this message)?

As mentioned in another newsgroup thread. The files you gave me solve the
problem with invoking make, thanks! Now I guess I can get my hands dirty,
sorry for being a pain.
Do I need to do anything to close the bug on bugzilla?
