hi guys,
i installed all categories of cygwin software, but i type "patch" and it appears "bash: patch: conmmand not found". Can anyone help me?
regards.
You just need to run the cygwin setup program again and find the patch utility and select it to be installed. It is not installed by default so you have to add it to your installation.
Thanks Stellaris Paul,
After following your suggestion, I have a problem in patching again. This problem is : "can't find a file to patch at input line 4 ":
$ patch -Nup1 -d c:/MatrixSSL/matrixssl-3-1-3-open -i c:/MatrixSSL/matrixssl-3-
1-3-open.patch
cygwin warning:
MS-DOS style path detected: c:/MatrixSSL/matrixssl-3-1-3-open
Preferred POSIX equivalent is: /cygdrive/c/MatrixSSL/matrixssl-3-1-3-open
CYGWIN environment variable option "nodosfilewarning" turns off this warning.
Consult the user's guide for more details about POSIX paths:

can't find file to patch at input line 4
Perhaps you used the wrong -p or --strip option?
The text leading up to this was:

Can you help me?
You are going to have to consult the documentation that came with that patch in order to get it to patch correctly.
