  • src/sbbs3/xtrn_sec.cpp

    From rswindell@VERT to CVS commit on Saturday, March 28, 2020 15:45:04
    src/sbbs3 xtrn_sec.cpp 1.87 1.88
    Update of /cvsroot/sbbs/src/sbbs3
    In directory cvs:/tmp/cvs-serv30081

    Modified Files:
    xtrn_sec.cpp
    Log Message:
    Stop searching-for and deleting INTRSBBS.DAT before running any external.
    This is an artifact from SBBS v2 for DOS:
    The file would contain the address of a shadow of the modem status register (written by execdos.exe) for dropped-carrier detection in xsdk doors (or the "dcdwatch" utility) while the BBS was "shrunk" out of memory to execute the external program with maximal available memory.

    Modified Files:
    src/sbbs3/xtrn_sec.cpp
    Log Message:
    Don't close logfile_fp before running JavaScript externals

    This would've prevented some JS log functions from writing to the node.log file (which gets concatented onto the daily "system" log files).

    This just came up via code review while looking into Keyop's reported error: term Node 2 !ERROR 9 (Bad file descriptor) in main.cpp line 4606 (node_thread)
    truncating "logfile" access=0

    This is likely unrelated since the "logfile" is immediately re-opened after executing the external program/script.
