Hi there, Before answering the questions from William, I would like to mention that GRASS is being run on an Intel Mac and that as far as I can tell (using the activity monitor) it is the Intel binaries of GRASS that are being used (no Rosseta).

I have written an small program to test the G_message("") vs G_message(NULL) and I can confirm that on Mac OS X 10.4.10 G_message(NULL) triggers a bus error. The function responsible for the error is vsprintf(). I tried the same program on another computer running Ubuntu Linux and both G_message("") vs G_message(NULL) works perfectly fine. The content of the test program is listed below which contains the function G_message() whose content was taken from GRASS's source code. #define MSG 0 #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <stdarg.h> void G_message (const char *msg, ...); int main(int argc, char **argv) { printf("Test for GRASS\n"); G_message("test"); printf("\n"); G_message(""); printf("\n"); G_message(NULL); printf("\n"); return EXIT_SUCCESS; } void G_message (const char *msg, ...) { char buffer[2000]; /* G_asprintf does not work */ va_list ap; va_start(ap, msg); vsprintf(buffer, msg, ap); va_end(ap); print_error(buffer,MSG); } Regards, Hazael _______________________________________________ grassuser mailing list [email protected] http://grass.itc.it/mailman/listinfo/grassuser
