MSYS2, GDB и управление памятью

Эта история началась с того, что мне захотелось поработать с интерпретатором одного очень экзотического языка программирования, а закончилась тем, что я освоил не менее экзотические (для меня) нюансы работы с памятью в С в Windows и POSIX, и того, как работает отладчик gdb в Windows. ну очень экзотического

Earlier I said that I had plans of starting a #cplusplus project but had to stop it because setting the build dependencies up in Windows is still an absolute nightmare. Annnd that the libraries are available in #Python anyway, so I should probably just write this in Python.

OK, after the first assessment, I'm no longer that sure.

One of the things I want to use is #SDL3, which does have Python library. ...with incredibly liberal application of `ctypes` on top of it. This is going to be an absolute headache *anyway*.

I'm mildly at some bargaining phase, like, um, maybe I cold bite the bullet and go with #MSYS2 after all.

The #Geany developers are looking for a new maintainer for the Windows builds of Geany.

The Windows builds of Geany were created previously on a Windows 7 VM which is not supported any longer.
We are looking for a new maintainer who likes to take care of the Windows builds, knows MSYS2 and has access to a Windows system with a recent version to be able to build and test Geany on Windows.

For more details and comments, see github.com/geany/geany/issues/.

#MSWindows
The default #MSYS2 #shell (bash 5.2.15(1)-release per $SHELL & $BASH_VERSION; prompt is branded with "UCRT64") has problematic job control😒 Starting the following in foreground,
stopping it (Ctrl-Z),
putting in background
causes only "sleep" to finish; looping is skipped💩 ...

while : ; do date; sleep 10; done

... works as expected if started in the background from the beginning ...

while : ; do date; sleep 10; done &

#WellLookAtThat! #zshFTW🌟!
The start-stop-bg works without issue in #zsh (zsh-5.9-0-g73d3173 per $ZSH_PATCHLEVEL)!

#MSWindows
The Samsung T5 SSD did not show up as "/mnt/d" in #WSL so that I could use "#rsync" to copy the files from my user directory & not have to pick & choose already (non)existing ones. ("C:" shows up as "/mnt/c"). Did not want to futz around in WSL.

/update/ Checked again in WSL, now the SSD shows up. Wonder if that is due to MSYS2 "mounting" the SSD or if due to WSL being started (much) after connecting the SSD ...

#MSYS2 OTOH showed that as "/d" ("C:" as "/c"). So "rsync" runs there instead.

#parv_note
From Package Management msys2.org/docs/package-managem ...
- search: pacman -Ss rsync
- install: pacman -S rsync
- uninstall: pacman -R rsync

If this had not worked, would have tried Cygwin cygwin.com/ .

www.msys2.orgMSYS2 - Package ManagementThe MSYS2 software distribution uses a port of `pacman` (known from Arch Linux) to manage (install, remove and update) binary packages and also to build those packages in the first place.

Anyone who uses #msys2 #mingw and Windows Media Foundation? What is the right way to include MFMediaEngine? It doesn’t seem to exist in any of the header / include files in Mingw. MFApi.h exists and a bunch of others, is Mingw just selective with what they include from Windows SDK?
