Re^4: Embed perl problem

I think i found the problem. when i run this code its ok:

//test.c
eval_pv("code normal");
[download]

but when i use this , program stops:

//test.c
void decode(char * block, char *key, int len) {
 //decode action goes here
}

char block[] = "encoded perl code like {0xaa,0xb9,0xb5}";
decode(block,"key",len);
eval_pv(block);
[download]

also when i print the decoded string for debug purpose its same as original code.

It smells like a missing string terminator, the NULL at the end of your block. `printf()` might be a lot less sensitive than `eval_pv()` when feeding it with a football-field worth of core. The initialiser `char block[]="abc";` puts a NULL at the end whereas `char block[] = {0xaa,0xbb,0xcc}` doesn't... and do not attempt to add one as it's a `const`. Long story short, add a 0x0 after 0xcc and make sure your `decode()` keeps it there.	[reply] [d/l] [select]

no chance. seems problem comes from calling system("ls -a"); in my code. when i using ptrace in c together with system calls in my perl code program stop running with + Stopped message at the end of program.	[reply]

I think about an alternative way, if i could detect when i my program run like this , problem can be solved almost: `parent program` vs `program` how can i detect when my program run by parent in perl?	[reply] [d/l] [select]
