[gmx-developers] gmx I/O redirection troubles

[Schulz, Roland]

Hi,

Your patch doesn’t compile. That’s why we usually don’t accept changes other than through Gerrit.

Make sure to sign up for an account on Gerrit first. Then use either the http or ssh connection shown on:
https://gerrit.gromacs.org/#/admin/projects/gromacs

Note the “anonymous http” connection doesn’t work for upload. Make sure that the http/ssh connection is allowed through your firewall. Both are guaranteed to work on our side.

Thanks.

Now I finish development of Win64 GUI for a call of the Gromacs commands.
It uses well structured help of Gromacs utilities for dynamic creation of modeless dialog boxes
for a choice of parameters of a commands and then commands execution.
It is implemented by non-blocked I/O redirection of gmx I/O through named pipes.

The main problem which I taked - The commands in interactive mode of user interaction hungs up,
so without showing anything in the pipes. After some time of dances with tambourines (debugging),
I understood that faults caused by buffering of stdout/stderr,
the problem was solved by adding of fflush (stdout/stderr) before an interactive call of fgets (., stdin).
In this regard I have any questions to developpers:
- whether it makes a sense to add correction to a repository or it is better to make it to authors of a code?
- why such disorder with use of stdout and stderr in sources?
List of files witsh adding fflush:

gmx_eneconv.cpp
gmx_energy.cpp
gmx_make_ndx.cpp
gmx_trjcat.cpp
pdb2gmx.cpp
pdb2top.cpp
specbond.cpp
ter_db.cpp
index.cpp

And may be anything else?
