For MySQL:
There is no Cygwin needed.  Period.

I did a build last night.  Using nothing but Visual Studio with the
Intel C++ compiler for Win32.
Here is what got built:

E:\mysql-3.23.55>

In the morning, I started the server Daemon
(E:\mysql-3.23.55\client_release>mysqld-max-nt.exe in my case).

You can connect to it.  You can query it.  Whatever.  No cygwin needed.
No Mingw.  No nothing.  Build in Win32.  Run in Win32.  It's a pure,
native Win32 application.

Just so that everyone understands about MySQL --> the [current release]
Windows port is definitely, positively a native Win32 application that
needs no outside utilities to build, setup, run, or administrate.  You
can all stop guessing.

Now, as far as the Win32 animosity goes, I think that is a natural thing
too.  There is a culture clash between the Linux camps and the Win32
camps.  Typically, it's the highly intelligent kids recently out of
college that are in love with Linux, and the [usually older] corporate
types that know nothing but Win32.  But realize that both sets of people
have real problems to solve and a free, high quality database will be a
great help to anyone.

Microsoft *has* done some really scuzzy things (STAK springs to mind).
But the people who just want to use the MS tools to get work done are
usually pretty well innocent of misbehavior.  They just want to solve
their business problems.  I think it would be good to keep that sort of
separation in mind.

IMO-YMMV.

The *BSD, Solaris, AIS, HP-UX, IRIX, SCO, and other unixoid partisans out
there will just love this statement.

The linux community here is in the minority, more than likely, to the *BSD
camp.

A lot of us are *not* looking forward to that prospect.

No doubt to that, but, depending on how good "the" PG guys are, it is 
either a blessing or a curse.  I think that PG has a REAL chance to be 
one of "THE" breakthrough open source technologies.

With the exception of OpenOffice, I don't think there is a more 
important open source project than PG. Simply because SQL databases are 
a cooperative monopoly. MS, Oracle, and DB2 are like the record 
companies. They have a cooperative monopoly. Yea, they will seem to 
compete on price, but none of them really whant to know how low the 
other will go.

Some may argue that Apache or PHP may take second place, but I submit 
that Apache and PHP are, by and large, much less expensive and much less 
generic  products as an ACID compliant SQL databases.

That being said, if a good Win32 port is made, AND it becomes common 
knkowledge, the use count may square.

Now that's certainly something to look forward to.

Any idea as to why we seem to be getting such a conflicting story here? 
By several accounts, it does.  Now, your saying it doesn't.  What the
heck is going on here.  Not that I'm doubting you.  I'm just trying to
figure out which side of the coin is the shinny one.  ;)

There's a tool that comes with either the resource kit or the VC++ stuff
that will tell you information like what ldd does.  I don't recall the
name of the tool.  Can anyone comment if cygwin (or equivalent) is being
linked in (statically or dynamically)?

Sorry to followup again, but I did want to point out something.  I'm
assuming you actually installed it.  Please take note that the cygwin
dll is normally installed into one of the window's directories (system,
windows, etc).  My point being, just because you didn't find it in the
mysql directory, doesn't mean it wasn't installed system-wide.

Not saying it does or doesn't do this.  Just offering something else
that may need to be looked at.

Welcome to open source where individual people get to decide what is most
important to spend their time on.

Because you don't use Windows. On a personal level, I couldn't agree more. But
I have been in a project where they chose MySQL because it had to run on
Windows. I would like to be able to propose a free alternative.

I think I have sorted through the confusion.

Looks like the only thing cygwin might be used for is a client. Here's what
the manual that comes with the 4.0.9gamma source says:

There are two versions of the MySQL command-line tool: Binary  Description     mysql  Compiled on native Windows, which
offers               very limited text editing capabilities.     mysqlc  Compiled with the Cygnus GNU compiler
      and libraries, which offers readline editing.
 

If you want to use mysqlc.exe, you must copy `C:\mysql\lib\cygwinb19.dll' to
your Windows system directory (`\windows\system' or similar place).

I don't see a msqlc.exe below, but it is in the released binary
distribution, along with the cygwinb19.dll. (kinda strange having a mismatch
between source and binary distributions).

The server appears to be entirely native.

I am using SRA's Win32 port here on XP, and it doesn't use readline. 

It does have arrow handling for psql, but does not do Control-A/E
handling, nor keep the history between psql invocations.  I assume this
is what the limited command-line handling they are talking about.

Probably. But readline is GPL'd (not LGPL'd), so my company can't bundle it
or anything that uses it with any non-GPL software we distribute. Similar
arguments probably apply to a cygwin based port (not one built using cygwin,
but requiring it to run) - IANAL but the company has to err on the side of
caution here.
