Hi all,
In my application i am trying to select some text & then give it to print. for this i am opening a stream using popen & then later closing using pclose.
Now this is working fine in my environment (solaris) but the pclose function is failing at my clients m/c. Even though print is happening (i.e, no problem with the implementation) but still as pclose is failing it will throw an error message.
I have read pclose fails due to some problem with waitpid(). But what is that trouble ?
Also he has captured the truss output ( system calls made by the appln) which are as follows :
29340: time() = 1164271259
29340: time() = 1164271259
29340: llseek(9, 0, SEEK_CUR) = 605
29340: close(9) = 0

29307: read(3, "16\0 b b\0C805B3\0C805B3".., 32) = 32
Can some 1 tell me y pclose is returning -1 every time ?
