Hi, I am probably missing something here, but let me try and explain my issue:
The following piece of code compiles and runs fine on Linux: [...] Image tmpImage(pos->getFullPath()); try { tmpImage.zoom(size); string target = targetDir + separator + pos->getFileName(); cout << target << endl; tmpImage.write(target); } catch (Exception &error_) { Logger::log(ERROR,error_.what()); tmpImage.~Image(); return; } [...] It also compiles and runs fine in cygwin, when the paths of the images are Unix style paths (/usr/dir/whatever). Now in cygwin, you can refer paths using the windows notation (C:\cygwin\usr\dir\whatever) and it should in theory continue to work with some tweaks in the code ... The above code atually creates a non-empty file about the size of the actual jpeg, but completely unreadable (corrupted?). After spending a whole day on this, I managed to get it working by applying the following changes: [...] Image tmpImage(pos->getFullPath()); try { tmpImage.zoom(size); string target = targetDir + separator + pos->getFileName(); cout << target << endl; tmpImage.write(target); // nothing, nada tmpImage.write(target); // tada, the jpeg is now on the disk } catch (Exception &error_) { Logger::log(ERROR,error_.what()); tmpImage.~Image(); return; } [...] I simply call the Image.write function a second time, and that seems to work. I first thought of race conditions in the code, so I inserted a few sleep (10) here and there, also changed and printed out the paths to make sure they were good, added a few sync() after the first write, destroyed the image object, but nothing did it ... So I'm trying to understand what is going on, the fix seems to be working for the moment, but I don't like it too much ... It looks like a buffer not being flushed in this particular case (maybe the backslash in the path is not well understood ?) If anybody has any insights, I'd be glad to hear about them ..
