BUGS
|
|
|
|
Curl and libcurl have grown substantially since the beginning. At the time
|
|
of writing (mid March 2001), there are 23000 lines of source code, and by
|
|
the time you read this it has probably grown even more.
|
|
|
|
Of course there are lots of bugs left. And lots of misfeatures.
|
|
|
|
To help us make curl the stable and solid product we want it to be, we need
|
|
bug reports and bug fixes. If you can't fix a bug yourself and submit a fix
|
|
for it, try to report an as detailed report as possible to the curl mailing
|
|
list to allow one of us to have a go at a solution. You should also post
|
|
your bug/problem at curl's bug tracking system over at
|
|
|
|
http://sourceforge.net/bugs/?group_id=976
|
|
|
|
When reporting a bug, you should include information that will help us
|
|
understand what's wrong, what you expected to happen and how to repeat the
|
|
bad behaviour. You therefore need to supply your operating system's name and
|
|
version number (uname -a under a unix is fine), what version of curl you're
|
|
using (curl -V is fine), what URL you were working with and anything else
|
|
you think matters.
|
|
|
|
If curl crashed, causing a core dump (in unix), there is hardly any use to
|
|
send that huge file to anyone of us. Unless we have an exact same system
|
|
setup as you, we can't do much with it. What we instead ask of you is to get
|
|
a stack trace and send that (much smaller) output to us instead!
|
|
|
|
The address and how to subscribe to the mailing list is detailed in the
|
|
MANUAL file.

HOW TO GET A STACK TRACE with a common unix debugger
|
|
====================================================
|
|
|
|
First, you must make sure that you compile all sources with -g and that you
|
|
don't 'strip' the final executable.
|
|
|
|
Run the program until it bangs.
|
|
|
|
Run your debugger on the core file, like '<debugger> curl core'. <debugger>
|
|
should be replaced with the name of your debugger, in most cases that will
|
|
be 'gdb', but 'dbx' and others also occur.
|
|
|
|
When the debugger has finished loading the core file and presents you a
|
|
prompt, you can give the compiler instructions. Enter 'where' (without the
|
|
quotes) and press return.
|
|
|
|
The list that is presented is the stack trace. If everything worked, it is
|
|
supposed to contain the chain of functions that were called when curl
|
|
crashed.
