Hello,
Updated version of awk (Dec 20, 2012) [1] has a simplification
in fpecatch() function. I tried to test this to compare the
error output.
Old version:
$ /usr/bin/awk '{}'
*** receive SIGFPE via kill(1) ***
floating point exception
source line number 1
New version:
$ ./awk '{}'
*** receive SIGFPE via kill(1) ***
awk: floating point exception 8
source line number 1
And with debugging flag set, the core dump still happens as expected...
Old version:
$ awk -d9 '{}'
awk version 20110810
program = |{}|
setsymtab set 0x7ac4f180: n=0 s="0" f=0 t=17
*** SNIP ***
lex token 123
lex token 59
lex token 125
errorflag=0
RS=<
>, FS=< >, ARGC=1, FILENAME=
argno=1, file=||
*** receive SIGFPE via kill(1) ***
floating point exception
source line number 1
Abort trap (core dumped)
New version:
$ ./awk -d9 '{}'
awk version 20110810
program = |{}|
setsymtab set 0x80e58840: n=0 s="0" f=0 t=17
*** SNIP ***
lex token 123
lex token 59
lex token 125
errorflag=0
RS=<
>, FS=< >, ARGC=1, FILENAME=
argno=1, file=||
*** receive SIGFPE via kill(1) ***
awk: floating point exception 8
source line number 1
Abort trap (core dumped)
No significant difference for this trivial test.
All I notice is the error now starts with command name.
