Description Alexander Pepin 2011-09-28 10:01:04 UTC 
Steps to reproduce:
- run IDE with a fresh userdir
- create Welcome sample
- run the project
Result: Output window (Internal terminal) shows:

Unable to start pty process: 

RUN FAILED (exit value -1, total time: 365890h 2m 11s)


In fact if I try to run 'pty' from cygwin it hangs. 'pty' from 7.0.1 patch 2 runs successfully.
Comment 1 Andrew Krasny 2011-09-30 10:37:02 UTC 
Looks like the problem is that sources were re-compiled with a newer version of cygwin, which produced incompatible with older versions code...
Comment 2 Andrew Krasny 2011-10-13 15:24:42 UTC 
The root cause is the same as discussed here:
http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.os.cygwin/125577

So, recompiled on 1.7.7... 

[changed pty.c to make it possible to compile without c99 flag - as in this case some warnings are issued... ]
