Hi Richard -- This is definitely a bug on our part and one that current work is striving to address.
If your program only uses a few arrays that live for the duration of the program (i.e., it'd be OK to leak them), a _potential_ workaround might be to compile with -snoRefCount=true. This is a big hammer that turns off reference counting for all arrays as a short-term workaround for some reference counting-related issues. It wasn't designed to help with this case, but seems like it might. -Brad On Mon, 4 Jan 2016, Barrett, Richard F wrote: > Folks, > > I've been wrestling with an odd problem, > > error: halt reached - array reference count is negative! > > then found what appears to be the issue: > http://www.primordand.com/chapel_by_ex_practical.html Is there new > information regarding this issue? > > Btw, this on my Mac laptop, OS 10.9.5, Chapel v1.12.0. > > Thanks, > Richard > -- > Richard Barrett > PO Box 5800, MS-0621 > Sandia National Laboratories > Albuquerque, NM 87185 > > Phone: 505-845-7655 > Pager: 505-951-8087 > > www.sandia.gov/~rfbarre > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Chapel-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/chapel-bugs
