gpsd subscribers.policy.watcher never be set true

[Zarey Chang]

Hi,

Now, my high level app(GeoClue) connect gpsd with socket by some modification, but it could not received any data but only first version from gpsd.

I find out a thread: https://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/gpsd-dev/2013-06/msg00000.html

+++ b/gpsd.c

     for (si = 0; si < NITEMS(subscribers); si++) {
     if (subscribers[si].fd == UNALLOCATED_FD) {
         subscribers[si].fd = 0;    /* mark subscriber as allocated */
+        subscribers[si].policy.watcher = true;
+        subscribers[si].policy.nmea    = true;
+        subscribers[si].policy.json    = false;
         return &subscribers[si];
     }
     }

<===

I found subscriber.policy.watcher and .nmea had never been set to true in gpsd3.19, is it for some reason? Because in function gpsd.c:all_reaports() , only when sub->policy.watcher and sub->policy.nmea are true, the pseudonmea_report was be performed.

So, If it is not a bug, how can I receive data from gpsd? why gpsd still check ub->policy.watcher and sub->policy.nmea?

BR.
