I've seen my problem posed in many places, and various answers given, some
of which worked for the OP but that don't for me.
I've installed the Eclipse Platform SDK 3.0.1 on a Win98 machine that has
Cygwin installed. Over this I've added CDT 2.1.
I've set up my C:\Cygwin\bin in first spot on my path in my autoexec.bat
file (remember those? ;-)). Cygwin all works fine from a shell - MSDos or
BASH - however, no matter how many - and I mean many - things I have tried
already, I just can't get Eclipse then to 'see' it on the path.
Everything's where it needs to be on my system, the cygwin bin is on the
path, yet Eclipse falters at startup with 'cygwin1.dll' not found. Then,
when it starts up and I work through creating a managed-make project, it's
no surprise that it fails with errors: echo command not found, rm not
found, that kind of stuff.
It's all there in the bin, however, and the bin's on the path, and . . .
At the moment I'm looking at how bash manages (converts) this path. In
DOS, it starts
PATH=C:\CYGWIN\BIN;C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND;C:\OLDMSDOS , etc.
Then, from bash, this becomes
PATH='/usr/bin:/cygdrive/c/WINDOWS:/cygdrive/c/WINDOWS/COMMA ND:/cygdrive/c/OLDM
SDOS, etc.
And it seems to be this conversion that is part of the problem. The other
elements of the path /cygdrive/c/Windows all function properly, and I've
been trying to get a way to have the Cygwin bin in the path rendered also
as /cygdrive/c/Cygwin/bin, and I've achieved this in a roundabout way, but
it still doesn't work.
And I can't figure out either how it seems, during a build, to be able to
find make all right, it's just that after that make can find the rest of
the stuff it needs.
This has had well over a week of my time already, and I've just about run
dry of new ideas.
How I wish Eclipse just had a property field where you specified your
Cygwin (etc) path, and that was it.
Any working solution would be gladly received, however much of a
workaround it might be.
Cheers
PB

I have the same configuration. I solve partly the problem.
If the first time you want to compile (make all), you have the message "g++ command not found" error...
- save your work, exit the platform
- launch the platform again, compile
- this should work !
If you launch a C/C++ application from the platform, you will experiment a 'cygwin1.dll' not found
the only way I found is to copy the cygwin1.dll in the project.
