Hey all,

Im building libcurl with DMC ( www.atari-soldiers.com/libcurlDMC.zip ) and
it builds ok , but when I compile the simple.c example it crashes.

The line that crashes is

url.c  , line 2116

if((1 > sscanf(data->change.url, "%512[^\n/?]%[^\n]",conn->gname,
conn->path)) )

I dont use sscanf , I think this is supposed to format it by stripping the
http:// of a URL string , but I cant read it.

Why would this be causing DMC to crash , and not others ?

Any help is super appreciated.

Thanks,
Charles

Is there a known issue with sscanf ?

 Replacing this with GlobalAlloc succeeds, but then fails on this function

          if ((size = sprintf(id, "%s:%d", server, port)) != *entry_len) {
                  /* Free the allocated id, set length to zero and return
 NULL */
                  printf("ID : %s\nSIZE : %d",id,size);
                  *entry_len = 0;
                  free(id);
                  return NULL;
          }

 Where sprintf returns 15 ( the length of the string WITHOUT all those
 spaces ) , but *entry_len is 512.

 After compiling this with VC , those spaces should not be in there, so I
 think the problem is still with sscanf.  Sorry if im flooding writing this
 out helps me diagnose.

It sure sounds like a memory corruption bug, which could be anywhere. If you
think sscanf is the culprit, try replacing it with some other function.

If you really felt enterprising enough -- the C RTL source is included on 
the CD -- you could copy over the scanf.c source (that's its name), compile 
it with libcurl, and actually diagnose the problem yourself, fix it, provide 
patch file.

 Hey all,
 
 Im building libcurl with DMC ( www.atari-soldiers.com/libcurlDMC.zip ) and
 it builds ok , but when I compile the simple.c example it crashes.
 
 The line that crashes is
 
 url.c  , line 2116
 
 if((1 > sscanf(data->change.url, "%512[^\n/?]%[^\n]",conn->gname,
 conn->path)) )
 
 I dont use sscanf , I think this is supposed to format it by stripping the
 http:// of a URL string , but I cant read it.
 
 Why would this be causing DMC to crash , and not others ?
 
 Any help is super appreciated.
 
 Thanks,
 Charles
