The goal:
to drive the state of the program using cmds from
stdin into a lua interpreter.
The attempt:
* create a thread which listens to stdin using
fgets().
* thread fills a buffer and then uses a mutex and
condition to indicate that the buffer is
ready to be consumed.
* a timer in the main event loop calls a routine which
consumes this buffer
* a lua interpreter is called with the string
And everything worked fine until I tried to debug it
:)
When gdb runs the app, gdb is using stdin, and it
doesn't seem that the fgets() in the
thread gets any of the input.
Threads, stdin, unix system calls and the interaction
of gdb with an app under xcode.
Since any questions that begin, "I'm using xcode
to..." is going to be met with derision elsewhere, I
ask here. And I am asking only because I am quite
stumped.
The question:
* is there any reason why this is clearly not possible
* if it is possible, where should I look for more
information.
Much thanks in advance.
Mark
