Hi CygPeeps,
I'm having memory problems with the latest cygwin1.dll. I did a clean cvs co
winsup today at around 1pm.
The problem occurs at line 618 of environ.cc (version 1.38)
before that line,
eq = 0xA010209
and after that line
eq = 0x6100B622
The crash always happens there, but it depends on which environment
variables are set. In every case so far, line 617 never had to be executed,
so it goes from line 616 to 618 then 619. The crash happens because eq is
garbage by line 619. I suspect it's a memory problem because several
iterations of this particular code works OK. Anyone happen to have purify on
nt?
Cheers,
edward.
615 char *eq;
616 if ((eq = strchr (newp, '=')) == NULL)
617 eq = strchr (newp, '\0');
618 if (!myself->ppid_handle)
619 ucenv (newp, eq);
