Package: ncftp
Version: 2:3.1.6-1
Severity: normal
Hello,
Sometimes, when I want to leave ncftp, I cannot do it.
I cannot repeat it at the moment.
The behaviour is that ncftp repeats its prompt of saving bookmarks
"Save? (yes/no)". Whatever I type (y, yes, n, no, ctrl-c, other) - it
doesn't work.
I suppose it is something with buffers, because at those moments I press
something strange on keyboard while ncftp is it in strange state and
after that cannot read input properly.
I've looked at the code (cmds.c, SaveUnsavedBookmark):
for (;;) {
(void) printf("Save? (yes/no) ");
(void) memset(ans, 0, sizeof(ans));
fflush(stdin);
if (fgets(ans, sizeof(ans) - 1, stdin) == NULL) {
c = 'n';
break;
}
c = ans[0];
if ((c == 'n') || (c == 'y'))
break;
if (c == 'N') {
c = 'n';
break;
} else if (c == 'Y') {
c = 'y';
break;
}
}
I assume that I cannot leave the infinite loop above, so:
1. according to many manuals, fflush(stdin) is undefined on ansi - does
it work under linux?
2. flushing standard input is not portable - could it be replaced with
sth else? fpurge?
3. maybe another case (default), which should leave bookmarks untouched?
I am sorry that I cannot remember if endlessly displayed text is only
"Save? (yes/no)" or all those "You have not saved ...." (which could
change my conclusion into crap).
