I just tried CVS with my OS X machines, this seems to fix the problem for me ONLY if I'm doing sleep(1) before I read. Otherwise there's risk of the read blocking permanently and I have to kill the application.
Any reason why this blocks but doesn't eventually return? maybe I just need to do a different approach. Right now I'm using a call that reads up to 4096 bytes, calls libssh2_channel_read (in blocking mode) until it returns 0 bytes. In my test case, I was running a command that produces 879 bytes. When it locked up, it was on the 2nd call to read where it would be expected to just return 0 but instead it's waiting for more data which none will come, or so I assume. thoughts? Is it better to use the non-blocking method maybe? This was how we were using it before with 0.13 with some success, but if it's better I can switch. 1.1 has a lot of improvements so wouldn't mind. -- Jeremy Knope / Software Developer / Ambrosia Software, Inc. -- http://www.AmbrosiaSW.com/ On Apr 30, 2009, at 6:32 AM, Daniel Stenberg wrote: > On Wed, 29 Apr 2009, double wrote: > >> This issue may be reproduced via the attached c-file.
