- I'm trying to port xtank to CLIX - intergraph's SVR3(?) unix, running on an
- intergraph 2400 series machine. Anyways, I've got it to compile, but it
- will not run properly.
-
- It doesn't seem to be handling the signals properly. If I understand the
- code correctly, it is using the signal() function to trap a timer signal
- that it has set up for itself. The program always terminates because it doesn't
- trap the signal. This occurs when you go to the play menu and start playing
- ( it usually draws the screen once then dies on the signal ).
-
- Questions:
-
- 1. Has anyone ever in the past tried to port xtank to a CLIX machine?
- if so, is the code available for ftp somewhere?
-
- 2. Is there some odd thing I have to do to get signals to work under CLIX?
- is there a library I have to link in or something? ( I'm linking c_s,
- X11_s, and bsd i think -im not near the machine at the moment)
-
-
- any help would be greatly appreciated. thanks.
