Oops! The "&" characters before which and length in the arguments to
CompareWord() in the patch I sent you have to go! CompareWord() uses
call by reference, and doesn't expect int * arguments. Here's the fixed
patch:
--- htlib/URL.cc.orig Thu Sep 27 17:02:10 2001
+++ htlib/URL.cc Thu Oct 11 08:59:16 2001
@@ -477,8 +477,10 @@ void URL::removeIndex(String &path)
defaultdoc->Pattern(l.Join('|'));
l.Release();
}
+ int which, length;
if (defaultdoc->hasPattern() &&
- defaultdoc->CompareWord(path.sub(filename)))
+ defaultdoc->CompareWord(path.sub(filename), which, length) &&
+ filename+length == path.length())
path.chop(path.length() - filename);
}
I have confirmed that this patch doesn't break anything on my system.
Let me know how it goes on yours when you get the chance.
