Hi! build_msg -D msg.fdb -P ./ -F firebird.msg -L all when msg.fdb is absent will result in infinite loop.
I have the simple fix - try to open specified file, but maybe someone has better solution. http://pastebin.com/YUtu8Znz Original problem is that after preprocessing structures/variables like struct isc_33_struct { short isc_34; /* isc_utility */ } isc_33; are not nulled on definition, so thay have trash contents. >From build_msg.cpp bool got_one = false; /*FOR FIRST 1 L IN LOCALES WITH L.LOCALE = locale*/ { if (!isc_29) isc_compile_request2 (NULL, (FB_API_HANDLE*) &DB, (FB_API_HANDLE*) &isc_29, (short) sizeof(isc_30), (char*) isc_30); isc_vtov ((const char*) locale, (char*) isc_31.isc_32, 21); isc_start_and_send (NULL, (FB_API_HANDLE*) &isc_29, (FB_API_HANDLE*) &gds_trans, (short) 0, (short) 21, &isc_31, (short) 0); while (1) { isc_receive (NULL, (FB_API_HANDLE*) &isc_29, (short) 1, (short) 2, &isc_33, (short) 0); if (!isc_33.isc_34) break; got_one = true; /*END_FOR;*/ } isc_receive catches exception during interface call, so no value assigned to isc_33.isc_34 and it is not nulled neither in isc_receive nor before. Then "trash check" occurs: if (!isc_33.isc_34) break; so no break at all -> infinite loop. --- My solution is simple and only for build_msg, but this problem potentially still exists in other preprocessed files. -- Egor Pugin ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Dive into the World of Parallel Programming.
