Hi all..
*ahum* this fault is definately due to a brainlapse in the way I have
learned pointers and so on. but anyway. I'm trying to make a look
<item> on <person>, and have allready made a look <item> in <bag>
(This one works perfectly). now, I would like to be able to do 'look
2.ring on guard' (without ' of course) So I looked around to find
something I could use. this is what I whipped up.
void look_on_something(struct char_data * ch, char *object, char
*victim) {
struct char_data *found_char = NULL, *lame_char = NULL;
struct obj_data *f_obj = NULL;
int bits, found = FALSE, j, i = 0, number;
char *desc;
char tmpname[MAX_INPUT_LENGTH];
char *tmp = tmpname;
strcpy(tmp, object);
bits = generic_find(victim, FIND_CHAR_ROOM, ch, &found_char,
&f_obj);
if(!found_char && GET_LEVEL(ch) >= LVL_IMMORT)
bits = generic_find(victim, FIND_CHAR_WORLD, ch,
&found_char, &f_obj);
if (!found_char) {
if (GET_LEVEL(ch) < LVL_IMMORT)
send_to_char("Sorry, but you can't see that person anywhere in your
vicinity!\r\n", ch);
else
send_to_char("Seems like that person isn't logged in!\r\n", ch);
return;
}
number = get_number(&tmp);
And here it crashes, and GDB tells me:
--- SNIP to GDB -----
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
show_obj_to_char (object=0x0, ch=0x8301758, mode=5) at
act.informative.c:169 169 else if (object->short_description &&
((mode == 1) ||
--- Snip Ends ----
not that this gave much info, except I can see that it ponders into
show_obj_to_char which I at no place in the code call..
I think it has something to do with the &tmp variable, but I can't
see what's wrong..
Hope someone can help.. :)
Kind regards
