With an explicit --disable-real-weather-fetch, I still observe an early FPE, while the splash screen is still up ... if the FPE trap is enabled. ========== UPDATE: I have a surprising explanation for the previously- reported fact that FPE behavior depends on whether options are passed on the command line or passed via .fgfsrc It turns out that passing --enable-fpe via .fgfsrc is a no-op. There is some "special" code in bootstrap.cxx that processes the enable-fpe option _if it occurs on the command line_ and not otherwise. Meanwhile, the "normal" option processing code in options.cxx recognizes the --enable-fpe option but does nothing about it. This needs fixing. I'm not sure what the proper fix is. *) Is there some reason why the --enable-fpe on the command line needs to be handled super-early? Normal option processing is already one of the earliest steps. Wouldn't that be early enough? *) If it needs to be a command-line-only thing, then that restriction needs to be documented ... and using it in .fgfsrc should result in an error message. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Return on Information: Google Enterprise Search pays you back Get the facts. http://p.sf.net/sfu/google-dev2dev _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/flightgear-devel
