Known bugs and problems

• If you perform an evaluation and then move a source file to a contestant's directory (to replace an old file, or to add a source file if the contestant didn't previously have one), the evaluator might not notice the change when it is run again. This is because a move operation preserves the file's time-stamp, so the modify time might very well be before the time of the original evaluation. Unfortunately, fixing this problem would probably make the software much slower. To avoid this problem, always copy a file to a contestant's directory (as opposed to moving it).
• Windows version: If your PATH contains a directory with a space in its name, you need to have c:\borlandc\bin before that directory, or otherwise bcc will fail when executing tlink. See Windows page for instructions on how to set the PATH variable.
• Linux version: Under some recent 2.4 kernels, there is something that doesn't quite work with setting memory limits. I don't understand the problem.
