win32: update current directory to target of symlink

2026-06-06T12:42:59+00:00

If busybox.exe was started from a Windows command line in a directory which was the target of a symlink (or equivalent) 'ls' and 'stat' were unable to report the correct details of the current directory. Call 'chdir()' from the BusyBox main program to update our notion of our current directory. Adds 16 bytes. (GitHub issue #597) Signed-off-by: Ron Yorston

main: !CONFIG_BUSYBOX: "busybox --OPT" is not a call to applet "-OPT"

One more from the POSIX documentation and some examples from coreutils.

win32: add a config for 32-bit build with Unicode

2025-12-02T09:36:14+00:00

Now that a binary with a UTF-8 manifest can run on Windows XP it's possible to configure a build which supports Unicode on Windows 10+ but which still runs on legacy systems. - Add the config file mingw32w_defconfig. This is a 32-bit build with the UTF-8 manifest which also runs on legacy systems. - A new config option, FEATURE_FAIL_IF_UTF8_MANIFEST_UNSUPPORTED, allows the check for legacy systems to be skipped. - An incompatibility with Windows XP in writeCon_utf8() has been fixed. See this GitHub issue for details: https://github.com/skeeto/w64devkit/issues/315

make: support GNU/BSD suffixes and inference rules

2025-01-14T12:22:55+00:00

The specification of inference rules in POSIX implies that only suffixes starting with a period and containing no other periods are to be considered. In contrast, both GNU and BSD make allow suffixes to contain an arbitrary number of periods, or none at all. Allow this as an extension. Adds 640-816 bytes. (pdpmake GitHub issue 70)
