Hi all,
Dunno if my earlier mail got through, so here goes again - with more
info, this time.
With gcc3.3, CVS doesn't build. I forced gcc3.2, and ran into problems -
searchd spun in search.cpp:AndResults, when you had a search query which
was more than one word.
It worked when built with -g3, but with anything less, it kept spinning.
The workaround I eventually found was to comment out this block of code:
/* for (i = 1; i < size; purl++, i++)
{
if (furl != **purl)
{
if (**purl > maxurl) maxurl = **purl;
same = 0; // URLs are not the same
}
} */
(search.cpp, 1887->1894).
The results produced still *seem* correct, even thought they may not be.
Can someone please enlighten me as to what this particular block of code
does, and why it may cause spinning? I have a suspicion it may be gcc
miscompiling (the entire function scares me, honestly), but yeah.
Cheers!
