Has anyone (Asger?) seen this? I really do not know what are the whereabouts of fwrite vs fprintf, but we should really look at it... JMarc
Hi, I've found a work around for the problem described below. In file buffer.C, section Buffer:makeLaTeXFile, "fwrite" is used to write out the TeX file. On our system (see below) this silently fails, producing no output. As a work around, I replaced the "fwrite" with "printf". That seems to work fine. Here are differences between the modified and original buffer.C from lyx-1.0.4pre4. 1853,1854c1853 < // fwrite(LFile.c_str(), sizeof(char), LFile.length(), file); < fprintf(file,"%s",LFile.c_str()); // 26-Aug-99 DFN kludge --- > fwrite(LFile.c_str(), sizeof(char), LFile.length(), file); 1921,1923c1920,1921 < //fwrite(preamble.c_str(), sizeof(char), < // preamble.length(), file); < fprintf(file,"%s",preamble.c_str()); // 26-Aug-99 DFN kludge --- > fwrite(preamble.c_str(), sizeof(char), > preamble.length(), file); 1993,1995c1991,1992 < // fwrite(LFile.c_str(), sizeof(char), < // LFile.length(), file); < fprintf(file,"%s",LFile.c_str()); // 26-Aug-99 DFN kludge --- > fwrite(LFile.c_str(), sizeof(char), > LFile.length(), file); 2020,2021c2017 < // fwrite(LFile.c_str(), sizeof(char), LFile.length(), file); < fprintf(file,"%s",LFile.c_str()); // 26-Aug-99 DFN kludge --- > fwrite(LFile.c_str(), sizeof(char), LFile.length(), file); On Mon, 23 Aug 1999, David F.
