flrig 2.0.05.63 posted at
Hi Guys, ? Just wanted to report a couple of issues caused by recent changes to "rig_io::readResponse(...)" alpha v2.0.05.55 which impacted Yaesu FT-991A: ? Issue 1.? Using "Command" and "SendCommand" UI flows hanging Reviewing the code identified issue with "rig_io::readResponse(...)" were the "expect" variable is wrongly being set to "req2".? The current if statement line #174 should check result doesn't equal "std::string::npos".?? This issue has been here for a while but recent changes now means expect was being used by the respstr.find(expect) further down? line#182 ? Issue 2.? After fixing Issue 1 still having issues using "Command" and "SendCommand" UI flows stalling for (~1sec read timeout) The issue here is again recent changes now always waiting for up to 1sec (100 loops 10ms sleep) waiting for response.? Well unfortunately not all commands send responses.? For example if you send a custom command "PC100;" to set the power level 100 FT991A is not returning a response.? My current workaround for this is when sending one or more commands I make sure the last command either needed or not will cause a response ie? PC100;PC; ? Mark (VK4TMZ) |
Well, that's one way to fix stuff, I guess it will work with my TS870s too.
But not the FT736, unless I as for a S meter or Squelch state as they are the only two things that old box can send back to the computer. But why should we need to do such? It wasn't broken in 2.0.05.05, so why was the scheme changed?? By accident perhaps, I don't recall seeing any comments from Dave HKJ about changes that could break existing setups. There again, Dave has had a lot of other things on his plate to deal with not so long ago, not just ham software... 73.

Just wanted to report a couple of issues caused by recent changesHi Mark, I'm having the same (or similar?) issue with flrig on Linux Mint and Windows 10, which I first noticed while upgrading from 2.0.05.45 to 2.0.05.61, as reported here: /g/winfldigi/topic/flrig_2_0_05_61_w_ts_570_not/106369517 The problem persists with flrig 2.0.05.63 as well. Unfortunately, my coding skills are too rusty and I don't have the ability to debug the source as you have done. So for now I have gone back to 2.0.05.45. Sorry I don't have anything to add to the conversation other than "me too".? :( Cheers, Steve K4RVA |
Dave, ? As inferred by original post "rig_io::readResponse" -> "/src/support/rig_io.cxx"? and the method "readResponse" line #167.?? Here is a snapshot of my temp fix for issue 1:
Will leave it up the devs to resolve that one as I have temp solution. ? Mark (VK4TMZ) |
Hi Mark.
Not sure which "Dave" you're replying to, but the postage stamp sized (in my mail client, I generally avoid the groups.io website) screen scrape of a source file is almost impossible to read here, but I can see your highlight ! Anyway, as you might also see by now, I've found other issues with the 2.0.05.63 issue of Flrig, that's forcing m e to stay for now, with 2.0.05.05, as that (for me anyway) works correctly. 73.
