#18239: workaround for cscope crashes inside vim
-------------------------------+--------------------------------------------
Reporter: jcduell@… | Owner: macports-tickets@…
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: Normal | Milestone: Port Bugs
Component: ports | Version: 1.7.0
Keywords: cscope vim | Port: cscope
-------------------------------+--------------------------------------------
Right now macport's cscope will die if run within vim and the user resizes
the xterm window (i.e a sigwinch signal is received).
To reproduce: 1) generate a cscope database (cscope -b) in a directory
with at least one .c file; 2) run vim and do ":cs add cscope.out"; 3) try
some searches, or just "ps" to see that cscope is alive and well; 4)
resize the window, and repeat step 3. Cscope will have died.
This bug is fixed in the CVS head of cscope, but it is not in the current
release (15.6). The attached patch applies the CVS fix to the 15.6 source
tree.
I've reported this bug to the cscope maintainers, and encouraged them to
put out a new release (it's been 2.5 years since the last one). But that
may not happen any time soon, and so I encourage you guys apply this patch
so the macports version doesn't crash anymore.
Cheers,
Jason Duell
