make-standalone-toolchain.sh

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Using cygwin terminal, I run the make-standalone-toolchain script:

This is tha command I write:
$ sh make-standalone-toolchain.sh --ndk-dir=$NDK --platform=android-9 \ 
--install-dir=$ANDROID_SDK/android-toolchain

This is the output for the script:
Auto-config: --toolchain=arm-linux-androideabi-4.4.3
Copying prebuilt binaries...
Copying sysroot headers and libraries...
Copying libstdc++ headers and libraries...
mkdir: cannot create directory 
`/tmp/ndk-ayesh/tmp/build-5788/standalone/arm-linux-androideabi-4.4.3/arm-linux-
androideabi': Permission denied
ERROR: Cannot copy to directory: 
/tmp/ndk-ayesh/tmp/build-5788/standalone/arm-linux-androideabi-4.4.3/arm-linux-a
ndroideabi/include/c++/4.4.3


What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
windows-7-x64, ndk-r7b, and cygwin.

Additional information:
I'm using cygwin on windows-7-x64, and the most important question is, am I 
waiting my time and should give up on windows with cygwin and use linux instead?

OK, it seems does not support sudo, It works on windows Administrative users 
permissions, so running cygwin as an administrator solves the problem.

it's because wherever you're running the script is read-only (check ls -l).

in the worst case chmod 777 -R the whole ndk dir, it will work.
