IDL Users,
I have an odd problem. I use call_external to access an external
shared lib under IRIX. After the 5.1 -> 5.2 upgrade, I tested
the external access (once) and all seemed fine.
Since then, I found a problem. I load the IDL script, compile it,
run, all is well. If I run the script again (without doing anything
else), IDL returns an error "unable to find symbol in symbol table."
The script has several call_externals, the screw up happens at a routine
returning a string. The error will not expree if I recompile the script
between runs.
Any ideas what I did wrong? Bad shared object compile? Buffer
overrun? IDL doen't like me and is determined to make me miserable?
As always,
Ed Wright
