pdp-ers,
<br>
i'd been experiencing mysterious segfaults with one of my pdp patches
and have finally narrowed it down to the pdp_text object.
<br>
<br>
when a text string of 12 characters is banged into pdp_text, pd will
very likely segfault. other string lengths seem to be OK. i've attached
an example patch and would really like it if others could try it and
see if they have the same result - i only have one machine around that
i can check it on. it may take 5 to 10 bangs of the fatal messages to
kill it ...
<br>
<br>
this is with:
<br>
pdp-0.12.2
<br>
pidip-0.12.6 and 0.12.9
<br>
imlib2-1.0.6-1 from .rpm
<br>
pd-0.36
<br>
rh9
<br>
<br>
oh, on a related subject: has anyone made anything like a strlen
external for pd? i searched pdb and found nothing ...
<br>
<br>
thanks,
<br>
bill
