Re: [julia-users] Re: Error precompiling on Windows 64 (julia 0.4.0 and 0.4.6)

You're probably thinking of linux sonames with dots. Windows doesn't have that, the dash in the name is a libtool convention for the best approximation you can get to allowing multiple versions of the library to be installed side by side, and different applications to link to different

Well, I thought that when you link against libgmp normally, it doesn't care that the filename is libgmp-16.dll. I thought the linker just took care of it for you, So I was surprised by this behaviour. I might just be confused though. On Friday, 22 July 2016 22:30:50 UTC+2, Tony Kelman wrote: >

Fragile how? The -16 is part of the library name.

Re: [julia-users] Re: Error precompiling on Windows 64 (julia 0.4.0 and 0.4.6)

I found the issue. The dll is called libgmp-16.dll. But Julia expects the full name of the dll to be provided, i.e. libgmp-16, not just libgmp. This seems a bit fragile to me. Bill.

The errors are precisely the same if I invoke Julia with --inline=no. Bill. On 22 July 2016 at 20:25, Bill Hart wrote: > What's totally bizarre about this, apart from the lack of traceback > information, is that this is precisely the same as the code used in Julia

What's totally bizarre about this, apart from the lack of traceback information, is that this is precisely the same as the code used in Julia itself in gmp.jl. Bill. On 22 July 2016 at 20:09, 'Bill Hart' via julia-users < julia-users@googlegroups.com> wrote: > I've narrowed it down to an issue

I've narrowed it down to an issue in the following snippet of code which is in __init__ in our package: ccall((:__gmp_set_memory_functions, libgmp), Void, (Ptr{Void},Ptr{Void},Ptr{Void}), cglobal(:jl_gc_counted_malloc), cglobal(:jl_gc_counted_realloc_with_old_size),

[julia-users] Re: Error precompiling on Windows 64 (julia 0.4.0 and 0.4.6)

I think there is a access violation occurring in one of the dlls we are loading in __init__. However, these are precisely the same dlls we used in the old version of Nemo, so I'm quite puzzled how they are causing an access violation just because we are using a later version of Nemo. I'll have

You could try to run Julia with the `--inline=no` flag to see if you get more debug information.

[julia-users] Re: Error precompiling on Windows 64 (julia 0.4.0 and 0.4.6)

Here are some other things I tried: 1) Run Julia as administrator : no change 2) turn off precompilation : still doesn't work, error message below [2] That's the entire error message. There's no useful diagnostic information to suggest what might have gone wrong at all. Bill. [2]
