puttycyg - issue #25

cthelper appears in a console window


Posted on Sep 24, 2009 by Grumpy Dog

I have been using PuttyCyg for a while before this without any problems; thanks for a great tool! The binaries have worked great for me. However, after I compile PuttyCyg on my own machine, whenever I start a puttycyg session to cygwin, a second console window opens up with what I presume is cthelper running, and it displays a bunch of debug messages whenever a key is pressed or input received in the puttycyg terminal.

What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. Compile PuttyCyg under Cygwin with provided instructions 2. Run PuttyCyg with a Cygwin terminal

What is the expected result? What happens instead? Expected: same behavior as downloaded binaries Bug: A second window opens up

PutTTYcyg version: 20090811 Cygwin version: 1.5.52 Windows version: Windows 7 RTM

See the XFLAGS setting here: http://code.google.com/p/puttycyg/source/browse/trunk/Makefile.maint
