>Description:
The following CGI script on Windows doesn't produce output
until the 47th line is generated.
#!/usr/local/bin/perl or #!c:/Perl/bin/perl.exe
local ($oldbar) = $|;
$cfh = select (STDOUT);
$| = 1;
print "Content-type: text/plain", "\n\n";
for ( $i = 0; $i <1000; $i++ ) { printf(
"%04d---------------------------------------------------------------
-------------\n", $i ); sleep 1; }
The above script works fine on Unix. Updates are generated every second.
To rule out perl as a possible cause of troubles I also tried to use regular
foo.bat aproach:
@echo Content-type: text/plain
dir
rem c:\Cygnus\B19\H-i386-cygwin32\bin\sleep.exe 10
c:\ntreskit\sleep.exe 10
dir
The Windows results are consistent (assuming dir produces ~20 lines).
There is no update until the end of the second dir.
