2016-07-30extcap: Use stderr to print error messageRoland Knall1-1/+1
This patch reads out the stderr messages from an extcap utility and displays it to an user. It was tested on Qt but not on GTK, but should work their as well. On Mac OS/X and Windows the child_watch does not behave as it was intended. Therefore in extcap_cleanup, the callbacks are called manually, if and only if, they have not been called already. The reason why it displays two error messages is, that by the time the first one is being displayed, glib has not returned from the spawned process on Linux yet. So there is no way to add the stderr correctly, and putting a handler to stderr into interface_opts will lead to memory errors, cause then the code tries to access memory outside of its protection.
