(Windows NT4.0 sp6, Windows 2000 sp1) When using sscanf to read double values from a string, the resulting value is incorrect. The following piece of code demonstrates the problem: >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> #include int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { double d; sscanf("12.345","%lg",&d); printf("%lg\n",d); } >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Instead of the expected 12.345, it results in 12345 (it appears that decimal points and exponents are not understood properly). If I revert FROM cygwin 1.3.1-1 back TO cygwin 1.1.8-2, the bug disappears. Anyone else experience this problem? Thanks, Mark Schamberger mas@labs.mot.com -- Want to unsubscribe from this list?
