Re: [hlds_linux] bug: capturing srcds console output not possible
It seems srcds IO detects kind of output and tries to optimize buffering when output is not a terminal. May be, if we could make the srcds think output is a terminal it wouldn't buffer. Anyway, I got tired of trying this and took the '\n' solution. Alexander Schäfer wrote: I feared it would be something with the buffer. file.txt 21 will work in if waiting for the buffer to be filled (just tried myself). however if srcds crashes the buffer gets lost and not flushed. (and thats where logging is actually usefull). Since you can't change input behaviour (srcds - perlscript), you actually have to send srcds an \n which is unreliable, expecially if you miss the important line crashing/shutting down the server. This suckz, can't you somehow enforce that no buffering will be used (dunnow, cmdline option)?

Re: [hlds_linux] bug: capturing srcds console output not possible
You gave me a good clue. Try this: http://www.unixlabplus.com/unix-prog/isatty/isatty.c but remove the underscore from _isatty. It really works. srcds thinks it's attached to a tty. Alexander Schäfer wrote: nohup works! at least it can redirect input without buffering the stuff. now I'm going to analyze the sourcecode. (I'm not good in C though) nohup ./srcds_i686 -game cstrike -nohltv +map de_dust -port 2234 - maxplayers 12 nohup successfully puts data into nohup.out without buffering.

Re: [hlds_linux] bug: capturing srcds console output not possible
You're right, it doesn't work as we want... but in that environment,
srcds attaches to /dev/tty to echo console commands. Strange.
I will have to translate your perl to C :) May be something with
pseudoterminals...
Alexander Schäfer wrote:
nope that doesn't work. however the buffer is beeing flushed on my
system if I kill the process. ( i tried it with and without the
underscore for isatty(int fd)...)
$ export LD_PRELOAD=./isatty.so
$ ./srcds_i686 -game cstrike -nohltv +map de_dust -port 2234 -
maxplayers 12 +exec server.cfg 1test.log 21
test.log is empty
$ killall srcds_i686
test.log is filled with the console output.
NOTE that without the overload of isatty the test.log stays empty for
me.
now the good news for me is that i found a working terminal emulation
for perl which works fine with srcds.
http://search.cpan.org/~rgiersig/Expect-1.15/
use Expect;
sub gg {
my $line = shift; #not sure if its a line but who cares, it
works :)
print $line;
}
my $exp = Expect-new;
$exp-raw_pty(1);
$exp-log_file(\gg);
#$exp-debug(2);
$exp-log_stdout(0); #dont echo programmdata to our stdout, since we
do it ourself up there.
$exp-spawn(./srcds_i686,-game cstrike,-nohltv,+map de_dust,-
port 2234,-maxplayers 12,+exec server.cfg)
or die Cannot spawn srcds: $!\n;
$exp-expect(undef);
still interessted why i have such strange behavior with isatty overload.

Re: [hlds_linux] bug: capturing srcds console output not possible
Yes, it is a very annoying feature. The only workarround I've found is sending '\n' to srcds console through the pipe. Each time you want to receive something, you must send a '\n'. I'm using raw C.

Re: [hlds_linux] bug: capturing srcds console output not possible
Well, in fact there is some kind of buffering. If you want live capture, you need to send something to get log lines. If you don't mind real time, simply wait for the buffer to fill (I think it is 4kb). That's why any redirection to file works.
