Just want to leave a note here.
I bootstrapped ATS2 using ATS1 on Cygwin-32 today
and also tested the build by issuing the following command-line:
make -C ${PATSHOME}/doc
It was all very smooth.
I did not have access to Cygwin-64.

Say you want to call patscc or patsopt from a non cygwin environment in
Windows. I am trying to do this with IntelliJ. Currently, I get the
following command and result:
Starting process ‘command
‘C:\cygwin64\home\brand\_000\ATS-Postiats/bin/patscc’’. Working directory:
C:\cygwin64\home\brand\_000\BIBCalc Command:

-IC:\cygwin64\home\brand\_000\ATS-Postiats/ccomp/runtime -IIATS
C:\cygwin64\home\brand\_000\ATS-Postiats-contrib/contrib -c

fopen: No such file or directory
exit(ATS): [fopen(“/home/brand\_000/BIBCalc/C:\cygwin64\home\brand\_000\ATS-Postiats/prelude/params.hats”,
“r”)] failed
Is there anything obviously (or not so obviously) wrong with how patscc is
being called that is making it prepend the CWD to search paths internal to
patscc (or patsopt)?On Thursday, December 11, 2014 3:23:19 PM UTC-5, Brandon Barker wrote:

I think the reason is that 'C:\cygwin64\home\brand\_000' was not treated as
an absolute path by the code.
Maybe you could create some symbolic links to address the issue?On Fri, Dec 12, 2014 at 1:17 PM, Brandon Barker [brandon...@gmail.com](mailto:brandon...@gmail.com) wrote:
