to make the 2 BUGs more clear: * in the while loop of processing options with '-' using getopt_long():
$ tftpd/tftpd -u SYSTEM -L -vvvv -p -c -s /var/log 1. it seems the '-<x> <value>'(-u SYSTEM) argument pairs that pass the second argument as value have the value lost and the variable get null value. the '-<x>'(-L -p -c -s; -vvvv is a special one) type arguments that set some flag seems work well. 2. the value of 'optind' is always 1 in each loop(-vvvv is a special one?). but it would have be increased by 1 in each loop. after all the '-<x>' and '-<x> <value>' arguments being processed, its value. 3. because the value of optind not increased 1 for each loop, so that the arguments '/var/log' at the end that pass value(s) get processed in a wrong way as the optind is used for 'argv[optind]' to set value to some variable(s). ================== $ tftpd/tftpd -u SYSTEM -L -vvvv -p -c -s /var/log cygwin: user=(null) optarg=(null) optind=1 cygwin: standalone=1 optind=1 cygwin: nodaemon=1 optind=1 cygwin: verbosity=1 optind=1 cygwin: verbosity=2 optind=1 cygwin: verbosity=3 optind=1 cygwin: verbosity=4 optind=1 cygwin: uniperm=1 optind=1 cygwin: cancreate=1 optind=1 cygwin: secure=1 optind=1 cygwin: dirs[0]=-u argv[1]=-u cygwin: dirs[1]=SYSTEM argv[2]=SYSTEM cygwin: dirs[2]=-L argv[3]=-L cygwin: dirs[3]=-vvvv argv[4]=-vvvv cygwin: dirs[4]=-p argv[5]=-p cygwin: dirs[5]=-c argv[6]=-c cygwin: dirs[6]=-s argv[7]=-s cygwin: dirs[7]=/var/log argv[8]=/var/log ================== $ tftpd/tftpd --user SYSTEM --foreground --verbose --verbose --verbose --verbos e --permissive --create --secure /var/log cygwin: user=(null) optarg=(null) optind=1 cygwin: standalone=1 optind=1 cygwin: nodaemon=1 optind=1 cygwin: verbosity=1 optind=1 cygwin: verbosity=2 optind=1 cygwin: verbosity=3 optind=1 cygwin: verbosity=4 optind=1 cygwin: uniperm=1 optind=1 cygwin: cancreate=1 optind=1 cygwin: secure=1 optind=1 cygwin: dirs[0]=--user argv[1]=--user cygwin: dirs[1]=SYSTEM argv[2]=SYSTEM cygwin: dirs[2]=--foreground argv[3]=--foreground cygwin: dirs[3]=--verbose argv[4]=--verbose cygwin: dirs[4]=--verbose argv[5]=--verbose cygwin: dirs[5]=--verbose argv[6]=--verbose cygwin: dirs[6]=--verbose argv[7]=--verbose cygwin: dirs[7]=--permissive argv[8]=--permissive cygwin: dirs[8]=--create argv[9]=--create cygwin: dirs[9]=--secure argv[10]=--secure cygwin: dirs[10]=/var/log argv[11]=/var/log ================== * recv() returns -1 with error 14 when it read acknolege packet from the socket, the normal return value is 4. ================== cygwin: recv() rv = -1 errno=14 cygwin: recv() rv = -1 errno=14 ================== -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
