Dont sort by name I did that a while back.. then you lose continity.
no longer can people use "n" for north, because it conflicts with "news" Get it? In other words, BAD idea! -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, February 24, 2002 10:23 PM To: [email protected] Subject: sorting commands by name Ok im trying to sort commands by name. And the only thing it gives me is a SIG_TRAP on the copyover. ok thats normal for gdb. and when the core does finaly dump it gives me: Segmentation fault (core dumped) #0 0x400b1e47 in memcpy (dstpp=0x8151ad0, srcpp=0x10, len=3221218776) at ../sysdeps/generic/memcpy.c:55 55 ../sysdeps/generic/memcpy.c: No such file or directory. in ../sysdeps/generic/memcpy.c so hrmm. no help there. my code: int srt_cmds(const void *p1, const void *p2) { struct cmd_type cmd1 = *(struct cmd_type *)p1; struct cmd_type cmd2 = *(struct cmd_type *)p2; logf("Made it here"); if (cmd1.name == NULL) return 2; else if (cmd2.name == NULL) return 1; logf("Made it to the bottom"); return ( strcmp( cmd1.name, cmd2.name ) ); } void sort_commands(void) { /* have to figure the # of commands first */ int i; for (i=0; cmd_table[i].name != NULL && cmd_table[i].name[0] != '\0'; i++) if (cmd_table[i].name == NULL) break; logf("Size of command table: %d elements.", i); /* qsort command table */ qsort((void *)cmd_table, i, sizeof(cmd_table[0]), srt_cmds); } i have a Rom24b6 mud. is there any other conversion i can use. qsort should work. and its prolly the best sorter on linux. some reason in int srt_cmds when it returns it dumps core. my log looks like: Sun Feb 24 22:13:50 2002 :: Sun Feb 24 22:13:50 2002 :: Size of command table: 357 elements. Size of command table: 357 elements. Sun Feb 24 22:13:50 2002 :: Sun Feb 24 22:13:50 2002 :: Made it here Made it here Sun Feb 24 22:13:50 2002 :: Sun Feb 24 22:13:50 2002 :: Made it to the bottom Made it to the bottom End Of File Uff blasted debugging! I also have a social qsort function if anyone cares to have it drop me a line. or email which ever. -- ROM mailing list [email protected] http://www.rom.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/rom
