Re: Linux printf funny

I'm converting an application from Windows console to Linux, and the changeover has gone remarkably easily (considering that I know very little about Linux), until now.

No problem installing GCC, KDevelop, FTDI USB drivers, remarkably few changes to recompile the code... but printf fails after about half-a-dozen calls.

If it is a multithreaded application, this can be the issue with printf() reentrancy. Many of the stdio.h functions are not reentrant by default, unless you are linking the appropriate libraries.
