Can you try to show a small script that reproduces the error?

Are you sure? The error message seems to be generated by a different
function call.

Thanks for your reply. 
A=sparse(nrow,ncol,vals_final); 
nrow, ncol, vals_final are all 1 dimensional vector.

[julia-users] sparse function

[new to Julia]

Hi all:

when I use sparse function in Julia coding, I have the following error:

LoadError: MethodError: `sparse` has no method matching 
sparse(::Array{Float64,1}, ::Array{Float64,1}, ::Array{Float64,1}, ::Int64, 
::Int64, ::Base.AddFun)
Closest candidates are:
sparse(::Any, ::Any, ::AbstractArray{T,1}, ::Any, ::Any)
sparse(::Any, ::Any, !Matched::Number, ::Any, ::Any, 
::Union{Base.Func{N},Function})
sparse(::Any, ::Any, !Matched::AbstractArray{Bool,1}, ::Any, ::Any)
...
in sparse at sparse/sparsematrix.jl:380

I am wondering that how can I fix the bug? Thank you very much.

[K leo]

Well that is very strange.  Somethings seems to get bigger or clumsier 
after many repeated includes.  I wonder what that can be.  I don't have 
global arrays, only some global constants.  Most of the time my repeated 
includes is only after changing a line or a couple lines of codes or even a 
parameter value, etc.  How can I time the time spent on include?

[julia-users] [ANN] JavaCall version 0.3.5

[Avik Sengupta]

I tagged a new version of JavaCall a few days ago, v0.3.5. I would 
recommend upgrading to it immediately. In particular, this version is 
required to use dfdx/Spark.jl.

This version solves a long standing segfault (thanks to @adambrewster), as 
well as enable support for accessing fields of classes and instances. 

I wanted to particularly mention this version since it will be the last one 
that supports Julia v0.3.5. The next version will be julia 0.4 only. Please 
shout if this is likely to be of any concern.

Re: [julia-users] calling sort on a range with rev=true

[Steven G. Johnson]

The case of sort and select are fixed here:

   https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/pull/16168

(If you pass them keyword arguments, then they pretty much have to return a 
full array, rather than try to be clever and return another range, for 
type-stability.  e.g. sort(-5:5, by=abs) can't be expressed in terms of a 
range.)

 (Obviously, it depends on the code you are including.   If you are 
including code that acts on some global array, and makes the global array 
bigger and bigger ever time the code is executed, then this will slow down. 
  But if your code just defines some functions and things, repeated 
includes should not be slower.)

Re: [julia-users] It is getting harder to match function prototypes

[David van Leeuwen]

Not that I know.  I do have some logic to sort out UpperTriangular for 
versions < v"0.4.0-dev", but this does not run for julia-0.5. 

It seems though, that this particular error only occurs in testing with 2 
subprocesses for parallel computation.  I've made sure that the version of 
the code in ~/.julia/v0.5/GaussianMixtures is the same as the codebase I am 
developing in.  

Perhaps the processes spawned by `addprocs()` run a different version of 
Julia than what I am using for testing?  Could any of these types have 
changed identity in such version mismatch?  I have /usr/local/bin/julia 
pointing to julia-0.4 .

Re: [julia-users] Image not saving

[yousef . k . alhammad]

For some unusual but fortunate reason, the "save" function is now working 
as expected.
Maybe it was an out-of-date package because the stale package caches were 
recompiled.
After that, I can now save images directly from Float64 arrays without any 
problems.

Thank you for you time and patience.

Also note that pasting in julia repl directly (without a magic
function) is less problematic than python since there's no auto
indenting feature that can change the meaning of the code.

include parse and eval the file in current module.

Without detail (and I mean very detail, not just a sentence or two

When I test my programs, I often do include("myprog.jl") on the REPL after

response to the "include" becomes slow at the REPL.  What is happening?

That's strange – that method appears to match what is being looked for.
Have you defined your own Matrix, Vector or UpperTriangular types that

  xμTΛxμ!(::Array{T,2}, ::Array{T,2}, ::Array{T,1}, ::UpperTriangular{T,S<:
AbstractArray{T,2}})


The badly named `xμTΛxμ!()` is a function in GaussianMixtures.   In this 
case, I can't really see which of the arguments does't match to the closest 
candidate.  The type `T` in the closest candidate is not specified in the 
function prototype, so I guess that implicitly the four `T`s in the closest 
candidate are, in fact, implicitly not the same type.  But even if they are 
implicitly the same type, the call clearly is with `T==Float64` for the 
five `T`s in the closest candidate.  The prototype is



function xμTΛxμ!(Δ::Matrix, x::Matrix, μ::Vector, ciΣ::UpperTriangular)


In julia-0.3 and julia-0.4, this problem does not occur.   Does anyone know 
what might be going on?


Thanks,

Re: [julia-users] Time handling: Micro/Nanosecond precision and time string formatting like Unix

[Tom Short]

It's not that hard to extend the date handling in Base to handle this.
Here's one example with microsecond accuracy:

https://github.com/tshort/COMTRADE.jl/blob/master/src/datetime.jl

I also like the idea of a TimeOfDay type like Tom B has implemented.

The TimeOfDay package is sweet thanks.

[julia-users] function to paste into REPL?

[Ali Rezaee]

Hi,

Is there a function or macro that pastes the copied code into REPL? 
something similar to %paste in iPython.

Thanks :)

[julia-users] static compilation

[Ján Adamčák]

Hello,

Trying to create an executable from Julia source, there are questions that 
raised... The process of exporting functions wasn't successful, function(s) 
was not exported to dll, and even the generated dll cant be loaded in c++ 
code. Below is the process explained in details:

Can anybody bring more insight, how to build a standalone executable from 
Julia source?


Following resources were used for experiments below:

http://juliacomputing.com/blog/2016/02/09/static-julia.html

http://juliacomputing.com/blog/2016/03/10/j2c-announcement.html


Assume userimg.jl, which contains exported function(s):
# user functionality for DLL
@Base.ccallable foo(x::Int) = x+1


Now, create a dll:
julia.exe "build_sysimg.jl" "./Julia/Compile/bin/" native "julia_dll.jl" --
force



File build_sysimg.jl on line 77 contains following command flags:
   run(`$julia -C $cpu_target --output-ji $sysimg_path.ji --output-o
   $sysimg_path.o --sysimage ../../../lib/julia/sys.dll -J 
$inference_path.ji
   --startup-file=no sysimg.jl --compile=all --eval nothing`)

The resulting dll has 29MB.


The next step is to use the dll in c++ project:
#include 
#include 

typedef int(*fnc_foo) (int);

int main()
{
 HINSTANCE hDLL = LoadLibraryA("test_dll.dll");
 auto a = GetLastError();
 if (hDLL == nullptr)
   throw std::exception("test_dll.dll not found!");

 fnc_foo foo = (fnc_foo)GetProcAddress(hDLL, "foo");
 if(!foo)
   throw std::exception("foo in test_dll.dll not found!");

 std::cout << foo(10) << "\n";

 FreeLibrary(hDLL);

 return 0;
}

In the c++ code above the dll cannot be loaded, hDLL = nullptr, and the 
first exception is thrown.

Expecting the dll with Dependency Walker even an exported function foo() 
cannot be found.

Thanks for any suggestions.
Jan

This is definitely a bug... I'll look into fixing it. Thanks!
