This is a expect-tk script which we have it on a Sun-sparc WS. The script was working fine before we upgraded the machine from solaris 9.0 to solaris 10.0. Now the script does not execute properly, as seen in the error message it does not identify the child process and above procedures fail
When I try to execute "exp_wait -nowait -i -1" through catch it seems to be working fine.
If you need any other information please let me know.

I am rewriting the first big script project I ever coded to clean up some issues, mainly my really clumsy bash code, and to migrate to TCL/Expect. I have a couple of questions that I could use some help with.
1.) The script needs to know where it is located. I realize that I could use "find /... (1 Reply)

Or if anyone has any expect knowledge, can you please provide some guidance on how to write to a local error log based on output from a ssh session?

In the following "for" loop I assume the the script will expect "anyway", "first" NOT in any paticular order and send "yes" when there found, breaking out of the loop when "$prompt" is found. The way it is working is like 3 individual expect lines, and they MUST be in cronological order. ANY help... (0 Replies)

tk_main
Tk_Main(3) Tk Library Procedures Tk_Main(3)__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________NAME
Tk_Main - main program for Tk-based applications
SYNOPSIS
#include <tk.h>
Tk_Main(argc, argv, appInitProc)
ARGUMENTS
int argc (in) Number of elements in argv.
char *argv[] (in) Array of strings containing command-line arguments.
Tcl_AppInitProc *appInitProc (in) Address of an application-specific initialization procedure. The value for this argument is
usually Tcl_AppInit.
_________________________________________________________________DESCRIPTION
Tk_Main acts as the main program for most Tk-based applications. Starting with Tk 4.0 it is not called main anymore because it is part of
the Tk library and having a function main in a library (particularly a shared library) causes problems on many systems. Having main in the
Tk library would also make it hard to use Tk in C++ programs, since C++ programs must have special C++ main functions.
Normally each application contains a small main function that does nothing but invoke Tk_Main. Tk_Main then does all the work of creating
and running a wish-like application.
When it is has finished its own initialization, but before it processes commands, Tk_Main calls the procedure given by the appInitProc
argument. This procedure provides a ``hook'' for the application to perform its own initialization, such as defining application-specific
commands. The procedure must have an interface that matches the type Tcl_AppInitProc:
typedef int Tcl_AppInitProc(Tcl_Interp *interp);
AppInitProc is almost always a pointer to Tcl_AppInit; for more details on this procedure, see the documentation for Tcl_AppInit.
