From: hedrick@dartagnan.rutgers.edu (Charles Hedrick) Subject: fseek bug in 2.11c Date: 24 May 1992 08:39:11 GMT
I found that ka9q was no longer able to deal with domain lookups
correctly when built with 2.11c. (The same problem also exists with
earlier versions. However I'm not sure exactly when it started.) It
turns out that the routine for adding information to the domain data
file was failing. It has code like this:
rewind(fp);
while (readline != EOF)
if data already present, return
fseek(fp,0L,2);
write data to file
The data was getting written to someplace in the middle of the file.
Adding a rewind(fp) before the fseek fixes it.
