Maze for Linux

Hi.

I'm currently trying maze, but I have some trouble making it works.

1) First of all, it seems not to work on latest release of Linux Kernel (3.X). I'm on Arch Linux on a 64 bits system. I'm using maze provided by the "maze-64-bit-x86_64-1.0-beta-2011.12.05.tar.bz2" tarball.
$ uname -a
Linux ab 3.1.8-1-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Sat Jan 7 08:59:43 CET 2012 x86_64 Pentium(R) Dual-Core CPU E5300 @ 2.60GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux

2) I "scp" this package on another machine (Debian)
$ uname -a
Linux xxx 2.6.32-5-amd64 #1 SMP Fri Sep 17 21:50:19 UTC 2010 x86_64 GNU/Linux

This time, it works. But, unfortunately, an assertion is raised:
maze: ERROR: Unsupported system call epoll_wait!
maze: process.cc:787: bool Ariadne::Process::mYield(const Ariadne::Instruction&): Assertion `0' failed.
Aborted

3) I found a potential bug.
It seems spaces are not handled well. For example, if I launched my program with maze like this:
./maze './myprog --query="{cat_id:1, nb_per_merchant:0}" --geozone fr'
It fails (my binary respond: "Option error: too many positional options"). I'm using boost::program_option.

But if I launched my program like that:
./maze './myprog --query="{cat_id:1,nb_per_merchant:0}" --geozone fr'
(no space between "cat_id:1," and "nb_per_merchant:0"), it works perfectly.

If you need more information, I will be glad to provide you any help.

Thanks.
(PS: excuse my poor english skill, I'm not fluent).

Hello aberardino,

Thank you very much for the detailed report! I will fix all 3 bugs, but let me start with the epoll_wait, because this is the one that prevents you from running maze. It may take me about a week to implement.

Would it be possible for you to send me your binary so I could run the test case? My email is roni at kloobok dot com.

What kind of file descriptors do yo use with epoll - pipes, sockets?

Thanks,

Roni.

Implemented support for epoll_wait. Please try the new release 1.0-beta-2012.02.12, and let me know how it works.

Going to look into remaining problems shortly.

Hi Roni.

Thanks for this feature. It seems to work fine. I launched a big test with this new release. I told you tomorrow if the test was successful.
(Sorry for the late answer every time, but the jetlag between US and France is huge ).

Regards.
