Unable to copy brkpnts.h

[thecrystallineentity]

I'm using cygwin, build failed with the message "Unable to copy brkpnts.h" It's the exact same problem that nsheppard had 6 months ago, but I have no idea what i'm doing, so I'll need really simple instructions on how to fix it.
Thanks

These changes to the Asymptotic function in brkpnts.c, suggested by a friend, worked for me.

double v1,v2;
double Asymptotic(FUNC func1, FUNC func2, double x, double dx)
{
while (1)
{
if (fabs(dx/x) <= PRECISION) return(x);
while ((v1=func1(x)) != (v2=func2(x)))
x += dx;
dx *= -0.1;
if (fabs(dx/x) <= PRECISION) return(x);
while ((v1=func1(x)) == (v2=func2(x)))
x += dx;
dx *= -0.1;
}
}

To make it working under cygwin, you have to add support for the CYGWIN in the wscript files similar as the AIX.

Revise the if..else.. for different platforms in $GENIUS/wscript, $GENIUS/src/material and $GENIUS/src/hook. You have also to remove the gummel_monitor_hook.cc in line 5 of $GENIUS/src/hook/wscript, which does not exist.

Besides, you may have to rename the shared material library to be e.g. libSi.so rather than libSi.dll or other weird name automatically generated by waf.

It seems working for me now under Windows7

Nice to know that you could make it work under cygwin, but actually
you don't need CYGWIN to compile it under windows. You can simply use
MSVC to compile it.
