Subject: [PATCH] expect: Fix segfaults if Tcl is built with stubs and Expect
is used directly from C program
Description: This dirty hack fixes segfaults if Tcl is built with stubs
and Expect is used directly from C program.
Bug: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=588817
Example:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <tcl8.5/expect.h>
int main()
{
FILE *pipe;
char *some_command = "uname";
char datum;
pipe = exp_popen(some_command);
if (pipe == NULL) return 1;
while ((datum = getc (pipe)) != EOF)
printf("%c",datum);
}
Example:
#include <stdio.h>
#include "expect.h"
main()
{
int fd = 0;
fd = exp_spawnl("echo", "echo", "Hello User: Whats up?", (char*) 0);
switch (exp_expectl(fd, exp_regexp, "ser:", 1, exp_end)) {
case 1: {
printf("GOT ser:\n");
break;
}
default: {
printf("DEFAULT\n");
return 1;
}
}
printf("Normal Exit\n");
return 0;
}
