Looks like my previous message didn't make it through somewhere...
So here it goes again.
Hi!
I have a small problem. I'm trying to make an own OLC, mostly because I
have changed the area/world system quite a bit internally. I have
among other things added an "area" file that defines base vnum for
areas, recomended levels, names and what world files to load.
The area editor (it is menu based) works perfect, except when I try to
save the area file to disk!
If anyone on this list knows what might be wrong, I'll be your personel
slave for the rest of my life!!! :)
Btw. I'm running on a Sun SPARCstation 4 with Solaris 2.5.1.
Here follows some output from gdb:
Sun Feb 16 05:50:24 :: Arrow retrieving crash-saved items and entering game.
area->vnum = 500, area->file = 'world/are/500.are'

... and the function that do the saving to file:
static int aedit_save_file(struct char_data *ch, struct area_data *area)
{
FILE *fl = NULL;
int cmd;
if (!area->file)
{
sprintf(buf, "%s/%d.%s", ARE_PREFIX, area->vnum, ARE_SUFFIX);
area->file = str_dup(buf);
}
printf("area->vnum = %d, area->file = '%s'\n", area->vnum, area->file);
if (!(fl = fopen(area->file, "w")))
{
perror("aedit_save_file(): fopen");
sprintf(buf, "Could not save area #%d.\r\n", area->vnum);
send_to_char(buf, ch);
return -1;
}
printf("aedit_save_file(): file opened successfully!\n");
/* the function gets here allright... */
/* write the header information */
fprintf(fl, "#%d\n", area->vnum); /* <-- it chrashes here! */
printf("aedit_save_file(): first write successfully!\n");
fprintf(fl, "%s~\n", area->name);
fprintf(fl, "%s~\n", area->short_name);
fprintf(fl, "%s~\n", area->creator);
fprintf(fl, "%s~\n", area->email);
fprintf(fl, "%d %d %d %ld %d\n", area->status, area->min_level,
area->max_level, area->flags, area->base);
fprintf(fl, "***********************************************\n");
/* write all the commands */
for (cmd = 0; cmd < area->num_cmds; cmd++)
{
fprintf(fl, "%c %s\n", UPPER(area->cmds[cmd].cmd),
area->cmds[cmd].file);
}
fprintf(fl, "***********************************************\n");
/* write out the end-of-file mark */
fprintf(fl, "$\n");
/* NOTE: Comments in the original files WILL be wiped! */
fclose(fl);
return 0;
}
Many thanks in advance!
