Re: [gnugo-devel] GNU Go and gGo since 3.4

[aquarius]

Hi,

are you using a Win32 environment?

Buffering of GTP output has changed - see file play_gtp.c:
-------------
...
 void
 play_gtp(FILE *gtp_input, int gtp_initial_orientation)
 {
-  /* Try to make sure that we have a useful level of buffering of stdout. */
-#ifdef HAVE_SETLINEBUF
-  setlinebuf(stdout);
-#else
-  setbuf(stdout, NULL);
-#endif
+  /* Set line buffering of stdout. */
+  setvbuf(stdout, (char *)NULL, _IOLBF, 0);

   /* Inform the GTP utility functions about the board size. */
   gtp_internal_set_boardsize(board_size);
...
-------------

The new way of line-buffering using: setvbuf(stdout, (char *)NULL, _IOLBF, 0)
doesn't work - at least for me, compiling with mingw and running in Win XP.

Perhaps you like my approach to this problem - see my posted message:

Strange error in self-compiled GNU Go 3.5.x for Win32using gtp-mode (patch 
included)
