When a subsequent sd_journal_next then goes in the other direction and switches from file f_b to f_a, it will advance beyond the current position in f_a, and thereby skip e_a. Of course, that's just my theory. Please check this carefully.</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the QA Contact for the bug.</li> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
