Bug?

Post by tainted »

Before I submit this, I was wondering if I could have caused this bug..
..[bot(dcc)] Executing command 'lsearch -regexp 100% 100%' on netbots.
..[bot(dcc)] Tcl: -1
..[bot(dcc)] [06:44] * Last context: tclhash.c/677 [Tcl proc: nb_dccnettcl, param: $_dcc1 $_dcc2 $_dcc3]
..[bot(dcc)] [06:44] * Please REPORT this BUG!
..[bot(dcc)] [06:44] * Check doc/BUG-REPORT on how to do so.

I was just playing with lsearch and don't see how that could crash the bot really, but also don't want to waste the coders' time on something I caused in some strange way. :)

There are occasions where eggdcrop can crash, for no reason out of the blue.

THis could be one of those occasions.

Is it repeatable?

If so, then it could possibily be a bug in eggdrop, or netbots.

If there is somthing wrong with a command, Tcl will barf an error message, not crash the bot.

.nettcl lsearch -regexp 100% 100% creates that error, and yes I can reproduce it every time. After that error is presented the bot consumes 99% cpu load and locks up completely. It looks like a problem with netbots, although it could be a bug in eggdrop that netbots triggers I guess. If slennox would state that it isnt netbots I'll report it to the eggdrop team, but like I said, I don't want to do so until I know its not netbots.
