Re: [Factor-talk] Graphviz unit tests

2011-09-18 Thread John Benediktsson

 - The current tests pass on my machine.  But then, my machine = a Debian
 box
  with Graphviz 2.26.3 installed (since I guess 2.28 is too bleeding-edge
 for
  Debian) and erg's plugin-list fix reverted (which I'm certainly thankful
 for,
  but 2.26 doesn't have the gvPluginList function; ugh).  So, grain of salt
 I
  guess.


I get a kernel-error trying to run the first smoke-test (5 K_n), with
Graphviz 2.28.0 on Mac OS X 10.7.1 x86_64.  And running graphviz test
causes Factor to quit unexpectedly... which might be a different bug?

I hate Graphviz.  I really, really do.

I'm not sure about the kernel-error, but if the unexpected quitting is anything
like previous issues I've come across, their source code habitually calls
exit(), which kills the UI listener since they share the same process (I
experimented once with forking the FFI calls, but that's a no-go on Windows,
so).  If you -run=listener to test, you might be able to see if a message gets
printed by Graphviz to stderr.  Maybe that'll give us more info?

(If it's further similar to other problems I've had with Graphviz, the error
message will be a single line buried in some undocumented corner of some messy
source code that hasn't been discussed anywhere that's indexed by Google.  Joy.
I hope for Graphviz's sake that I'm just really incompetent at reading C code.)

Thanks for testing,

Re: [Factor-talk] Graphviz unit tests

2011-09-18 Thread John Benediktsson
Unfortunately, this is all I get from the command-line.  I'll need to do
more debugging at some point:

( scratchpad ) USE: graphviz
( scratchpad ) graphviz test
Unit Test: { { t } [ 5 K_n smoke-test ] }
factor(53761,0x7fff7512c960) malloc: *** error for object
0xc000: pointer being freed was not allocated
*** set a breakpoint in malloc_error_break to debug
Abort trap: 6
