    Published null
    Product Standard Internationalised System Calls and Libraries Extended (UNIX 95)
    Certification Program The Open Brand certification program
    Test Suite VSU version 5.0.2
    Test Identification CAPIxcurses/getstr 17
    Problem Summary PG4U.00157 This implementation is failing these tests due to the setting of the ICANON flag.
    Problem Text
    This IR is for getstr #17, getnstr #17, mvgetstr #17, mvgetnstr #17,
    mvwgetstr #17, mvwgetnstr #17
    wgetstr #17, and wgetnstr #17

    CAE Specification, System Interface Definitions, Issue 4, Version 2,
    Section 9.2.5 Local Modes pg 126 states:

    "If ECHOE and ICANON are set, the ERASE character causes the terminal to
    erase, if possible,
    the last character in current line from the display...

    If ECHOK and ICANON are set, the KILL character causes the terminal to
    erase the line from the
    display or echoes the newline character after the KILL character."

    These testcases do not confirm that ECHOE, ECHOK, or ICANON are set. I
    queried thier settings
    on our implementation and found that ICANON was not set. Once I modified
    and set ICANON
    in the testcase it PASSed.

    Review Recommendation No Resolution Given
    Review Response
    We recommend this request be refused.

    The specification for these routines states that the user's echo and kill
    characters are interpreted. Thus, it is the responsibility of the
    implementation to set the terminal modes necessary to ensure this occurs,
    not the application (here the test suite).

    Please note that ICANON is set by the test suite during initialization
    of the terminal devices for these tests (the code for this in the capi_xcurses
    library in the curs_prep module).
