Hi all,
I just released Version 0.3 of bbweather. I attempted to fix the
segfaults that some of you encountered - should this not yet be working
for you, try "./configure --enable-debug" and compile again; it's been
reported that this fixes the problem (though I believe I got it -- it's
just that with me not seeing the problem it's harder to fix).
Changes:
- Some people reported segfaults, so I added further checking for
malloc'd memory and char*-assignments.
- added command-line option "-t, --ticks" taking one argument of
type int specifying the time in seconds interval to be used for
cycling. Alternatively, this may be specified in the
configfile: bbweather.ticks: 5
- added command-line option "-s, --shape", disabling the
window-frame
- reduced update interval: used to re-read the file every minute,
that's too much. Now only check for new data every 10 minutes.
- added comman-line option "-u, --update", taking one argument of
type int specifying the time in minutes to check for new data
(File I/O)
- added possibility to specify the following command-line options
in the configuration file:
-c, --cycle: bbweather.cycle True
-m, --metric: bbweather.metric True
-s, --shape: bbweather.shape True
-w, --withdrawn: bbweather.withdrawn True
-x, --extra: bbweather.extra True
As always:
