(or x3270?) Sender: owner-freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I just installed the tn3270 package from 4.1-RELEASE and tried to use it... It dumps core, and when you look at core file in gdb, it seems to be an infinite recursive loop in ncurses. setupterm() tgetent() setupterm() tgetent() setupterm() tgetent() ... I haven't look at the x3270 sources yet, but I do notice that ncurses has a function named setupterm() (which is probably called by tgetent().) If the x3270 sources also have this function *poof* recursive loop... In an interesting twist of IP routing, I can't go grab the x3270 sources at the moment to rebuild a debuggable version... but, this e-mail while "go out" due to a fall-back to a 56K modem... a long story of only being half-way converted to DSL :-) In any event, when I can get to "the net" again, I'll grab the x3270 sources to see what's happening... - Dave Rivers - -- rivers@dignus.com Work: (919) 676-0847 Get your mainframe (370) `C' compiler at http://www.dignus.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
