Sylvain, There is nothing to apologize for. Writing to stderr is fine. Putting the .dll in the same directory is fine. Mogo does work from the command line. No error message.
???? I can recreate the symptoms with my own engine by adding an extraneous?"printf." "fprintf(stderr," does not cause problems. Whether it gives an error message or not beyond the "abort" depends on what I print. It could be that there are some?stray printf's, not directed to stderr, somewhere in Mogo. It seems to happen in response to genmove (perhaps when reporting the time) and also when reading the opening file. I can delay the abort by running with "--useOpeningDatabase 0" but only until the first "genmove." Mogo responds to some other commands like "name", "version", "komi", "boardsize", "clear_board", and "play", without problems. - Dave Hillis -----Original Message----- From: Sylvain Gelly <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: computer-go <computer-go@computer-go.org> Sent: Wed, 19 Sep 2007 4:03 am Subject: Re: [computer-go] Update of MoGo binary release, and windows version available!

Normally not, the diagnostic information are sent to stderr, and should not be a problem. So shall I understand MoGo at least works for you on command line? > I put an extra copy of cygwin1.dll in the "WINDOWS\system32" directory, so > mogo can find it from anywhere and I used "--9 --time 12 > --useOpeningDatabase 0 --dontDisplay 1". That got it connected to Drago and > actually set up a game. You mean that with the .dll in WINDOWS\system32 that goes further?

I'll look at it some more when I have time. Sorry for the trouble. I'll look at it as soon as I find some time, ie I don't know when :).
