A few days back I had posted a question that I was getting a segementation fault using tclblend1.1.1. I am unable to send a reply to that message due to technical problems and so am sending a new note. To reiterate the problem, I am calling a java method from a tcl shell and I am getting a segmentation fault somewhere in the method. I do the following steps to call the java method of an application. set filename /home/andante/ayyagari/ptfconfig set prop [java::new java.util.Properties] set file [java::new java.io.FileInputStream $filename] if {[catch {$prop -noconvert load $file}]} { java::throw [java::new java.util.IOException "configfile not present"] } The properties object works fine. because I am able to get name value pairs when I use the getProperty mtd of the java.util.Properties. Then I create an object of one java application set resManager [java::new phonetest.ResManager] Here's where I get the segmentation fault. $resManager -noconvert createPTFObjects $prop The program is crashing inside createPTFObjects while calling the constructor for the Socket class in java.net inside createPTFObjects. The contructor of Socket is of format Socket(String, int) createPTFObjects works fine when called inside a java application. I will also try using tclblend1.2.3 and see what happens. If it already a known problem that has been fixed, please let me know. Thankyou so much for the help Suvarna _______________________________________________________________ Get Free Email and Do More On The Web.
