IvanHoe/Scid bug

Post by kingliveson » Thu Mar 17, 2011 7:22 pm

The following causes a engine crash under scid (version 4.2.2) in Linux.

Code: Select all

{ComradesMonteCarlo {}} 
Edit: Reproducible on 3 different systems.

Right below the text field should be option to 'Upload attachment,' 'Choose File,' and 'Add the file.'


P.S. The "bug" is just a dud code (perhaps a template for code to come) that could just be commented out in input.c -- though didn't realize before the builds this would be an issue until tested on Scid.

Edit: Another solution is just remove '{ComradesMonteCarlo {}}' from

Code: Select all

/home/yourname/.scid/config/engines.dat
