Hi all,

I am using GDBserver running on windows under CYGWIN (GDB is running on
the other side).
When GDBServer is runnning (augmented of several debug printing) a DOS
window is open. If this DOS window is killed or closed (by using the
small cross in the upper right corner), I wish to catch the
corresponding signal and warn the GDB client that the server is down.

How to catch such signals on Windows NT (or 98) ? I tried several
signal() on signals recognized on window (SIGABRT, ILL, INT, SEGV and
TERM) without any success.

Thanks for any help
   Christophe

Curious - what version of gdbserver?  I don't know of any FSF version that
supported cygwin.

But it works well. Windows NT + layer of cygwin Posix emulation dll
(1.3.5) and gcc 2.95.3-5 (cygwin special) running on the top, for GDB
and GDBServer 5.0 compilation. The 2 win32 runtime run correctly.

I've heard that some difficulties exist to catch signals thru cygwin
layer and that the classical signal(), raise() ... primitives don't
"work" well but I don't have any info about it.

But gdbserver 5.0 wouldn't build on Cygwin... did the Cygwin people
include their own version?

I succedded to implement a such mechanism described in MSDN library :

 - In the main() server.c, call SetConsoleCtrlHandler(my_handler, TRUE)
 - don't forget to include <windows.h>
 - implement   char WINAPI my_handler (DWORD dwCtrlType) and treat
signals...

I can catch CTRL-C, CTRL-BREAK and DOS windows closing.

Thanks for your interest to my request. Hope this will help somebody
	Christophe
