Hello folks, I'm in mid swing on installing and converting the
guild-improved.tar.gz system into a patch level 17. Through it all, I've
managed to get it to compile without complaint, but I'm experiencing a
strange crash bug. Mortals who do the commands don't crash us, but
Immortals who do it, crash us hard. Here's an example of the code.
ACMD(do_allguilds)
{
struct guild_data *g;
int i, num;
*buf = '\0';
for (i = 1; i <= MAX_GUILD_TYPES; i++) {
g = guilds_data;
sprintf(buf, "%s\r\n &c%s list&n\r\n", buf, guild_types[i]);
sprintf(buf, "%s &R=====", buf);
for (num = 1; num <= strlen(guild_types[i]); num++)
sprintf(buf, "%s=", buf);
sprintf(buf, "%s&n\r\n\r\n", buf);
while (g) {
if (GLD_TYPE(g) == i)
sprintf(buf, "%s%s [%d] [%s]\r\n", buf, g->name, g->idnum,
(GLD_FLAGGED(g, GLD_IC) ? "IC" : "OOC"));
g = g->next;
}
}
sprintf(buf, "%s\r\n\r\n", buf);
page_string(ch->desc,buf,1);
}
Here's the general gdb message on doing a gdb bin/circle lib/core:
Reading symbols from /lib/ld-linux.so.2...done.
#0 0x80bc716 in page_string (d=0x816fc08,
str=0x811a000 "\r\n &cTribe list&n\r\n
&R==========&n\r\n\r\n\r\n &cOrganization list&n\r\n &R", '='
<repeats 17 times>, "&n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n", keep_internal=1) at modify.c:444
444 lines = MAX(GET_LINES(d->character), 10);
Here's info local:
(gdb) info local
d = (struct descriptor_data *) 0x816fc08
str = 0x811a000 "\r\n &cTribe list&n\r\n
&R==========&n\r\n\r\n\r\n &cOrganization list&n\r\n &R", '='
<repeats 17 times>, "&n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n"
keep_internal = 1
lines = 0
and last but not least, here's modify.c line 444:
lines = MAX(GET_LINES(d->character), 10);
I can't for the life of me figure out why it's crashing.
Anyone have a clue?
