Getopt lib not restartable?

I've been trying to make mkdir restartable, but am having problems. During the second execution getopt returns EOF (-1) when first called, when it should be returning an option. I've checked all my code, and there isn't anything I'm not initializing at run time. So, it seems that there is something in the getopt lib that prevents it from being restartable... -- ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: | James Brookes | Inet: bb252@cleveland.freenet.edu | |``What, me worry?'' - A.

There are three or so global variables that getopt() keeps; you need to initialize those to their proper values in main(). -- Jawaid Bazyar | Ask me about the GNO Multitasking Environment Procyon, Inc. | for the Apple IIgs! bazyar@cs.uiuc.edu | P.O Box 620334 --Apple II Forever!-- | Littleton, CO 80162-0334 (303) 933-4649

Seems like you just answered your other question about making programs restartable... :) I supposed it wouldn't be hard to make a program restartable, but for me it's a question of time. I supposed if a program is written with the fact that it would be restartable in mind would make the task a lot easier. Maybe I'll reassemble a program with different quit parameters and see what happens. >| James Brookes | Inet: bb252@cleveland.freenet.edu | Hmm, aren't there some very pressing things that need to be done? :) We'll worry about restartable programs in a few days... As for my part, I'm done with just about everything... I need to work on the sound drivers, put in an about screen, and put in "demo" mode. If you don't know what I'm talking about, don't worry about it... it'll be out real soon now.
