Need Help??

in reply to While loop not exiting when expected.

I can't reproduce your problem with the code given. The last output of your program goes like this:

11733 started. Got arguments: i2 j2
11734 started. Got arguments: k2 l2
11735 started. Got arguments: m2 n2
11736 started. Got arguments: o2 p2
11737 started. Got arguments: q2 r2

11737 returned 0.
11734 returned 0.
11736 returned 0.
11735 returned 0.
11733 returned 0.
11738 started. Got arguments: s2 t2
11739 started. Got arguments: u2 v2
11740 started. Got arguments: w2 y2
11741 started. Got arguments: x2 z2

and then it terminates as expected.

I'm on v5.8.0 built for i586-linux-thread-multi.

The code appears to work OK under v5.8.3 built for i386-linux-thread-multi, but it failed under v5.8.4 built for sun4-solaris. It looks like there's some kind of wierdness only on Solaris. If the information in this post is inaccurate, or just plain wrong, don't just downvote - please post explaining what's wrong. That way everyone learns.	[reply]
