#102 0.9.3-git lircrc with modes causes irexec to segfault

[James A R Brown]

This lircrc from lirc website

  begin order
  begin
       button = KEY_OK
       prog = irexec
       config = echo "This is printed last"
  end
  end order

  begin
       button = KEY_OK
       prog = irexec
       config = echo "This is printed first"
       mode = order
       flags = quit
  end

works fine on 0.9.2a but causes "irexec <config file="">" to seg fault on 0.9.3-git</config>

Commenting out the begin order section, irexec runs ok.

Using a simple setup with a mceusb lircd config + ircat using the config file above I cannot reproduce this. Could you please provide more details how you trigger this, and preferably also a stacktrace as described in CONTRIBUTE.md?

I had the same problem, debugged it and found that lirc_readconfig() needs lirc_prog to be set which is only set in lirc_init().
It's probably a good idea to execute lirc_init() before any other lirc_ call anyway.

Patch to fix it is attached.

fixed in [f62a66]. Thanks for debugging + patch!
