Newbie question - gcry_sexp_build Seg. Fault

[António Pinto]

That was one of the attempts I've made to resolve the seg. fault. The
actual code is the following:

------------------
int buildSig(int msgid, int leaderid, char * sig) {
gcry_sexp_t plain, sign;
int len,data;
	
	data=msgid+leaderid;
	gcry_sexp_build (&plain, NULL, "(data (flags raw) (value %d))", data);
	gcry_pk_sign(&sign, plain, sKey);
	len=gcry_sexp_sprint(sign, GCRYSEXP_FMT_ADVANCED, sig, sizeof(char)*1024);

return len;
}
--------------------

And I keep getting de seg. fault.
One thing I've noticied is that the seg. fault only happens on the
first run (of the first forked process, in a multi process
enviroment).

thx
