Hi,
I've some (= a lots of) troubles while porting a software from
unix/linux to Windows NT. My last problem is I have to handle files that
may contain ^Z characters. Unfortunately, cygwin seems to act like MSDOS
and treats this character as an EOF :-(
I'm also using some gettext tools and I saw something that seems to me
to be wrong in src/intl/loadmsgcat.c :
the "read" system call return 0 when he meets some ctrl-Z, but ... as
you can see, when nb= 0, you'll get an endless loop :-((
***************************************************************
if (data == (struct mo_file_header *) -1)
{
off_t to_read;
char *read_ptr;
data = (struct mo_file_header *) malloc (st.st_size);
if (data == NULL)
return;
to_read = st.st_size;
read_ptr = (char *) data;
do
{
long int nb = (long int) read (fd, read_ptr, to_read);
if (nb == -1)
{
close (fd);
return;
}
read_ptr += nb;
to_read -= nb;
}
while (to_read > 0);
close (fd);
}
********************************************************************
Got any Idea ???
Regards,
Christine
