call to logerror() that many of the modules do. I have not tried it,
but I think things will become wild when we compile without pthread
support. Threading prevents full recursion, so we have not seen any bad
effects so far. However, the problems that I experienced in ommysl
(that caused me to re-structure startWorker()) are actually rooted in
this issue. I first thought to fix it via a module interace, but I now
came to the conclusion that it is not more effort and much cleaner to
do an internal error buffering class. This is implemented in
errbuf.c/h.
- I just noticed that this is not actually an error buf, but the core of an
input module for all internal messages. As such, I implement it now as
iminternal.c/h. Of course, there is no input module interface yet
designed, but that doesn't matter. Worst-case, I need to re-write the
im, best case I can use the im (at least partly) to define the
interface.
- added a few functions to the linkedlist class
- error messages during startup are now buffered - so we do no longer need
to think about how emergency logging might work. Actually, these are
logged to whatever is instatiated in the log file. This enhances the
chance that we will be able to drop the error message somewhere it is
seen.
