Thanks, Owen,
I looked at the ticket, and in it you describe the issue in the context of 
Java. When these types of issues are resolved, are they typically resolved in 
parallel in the Java and C++ API’s?

Subject: Re: Possible bug in ORC C++ seekToRow?

Ok, I've been able to reproduce this. I've filed 
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ORC-569<https://nam02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fissues.apache.org%2Fjira%2Fbrowse%2FORC-569&data=02%7C01%7CAndrew.Shakinovsky%40sas.com%7C8f1a1361ca4c497d4fa508d764a2c089%7Cb1c14d5c362545b3a4309552373a0c2f%7C0%7C0%7C637088522497371176&sdata=3oobeGIZSSXjHQ1acECdex7%2FNAasEueyKBr6X797X5Y%3D&reserved=0>

If the positions list is empty, that is a bug. Can you describe how you 
generated the ORC file? Which version of the software was used?

Thanks,

Hi,
I'm starting to work with the ORC C++ API for a project I'm on.
In a very basic test, I am seeing an assertion which I think is a bug. As I'm 
not sure where to report bugs (and also, as I'm just started looking at this 
API and maybe I'm misusing the API) I thought I'd post here.

It is easy to reproduce: Take the Filecontents.cpp program which is the source 
for orc-contents example application and add the following code right before 
the while loop that calls rowReader->next(*batch):

rowReader->seekToRow(1000);

Then, using the example file TestOrcFile.testSeek.orc as input to orc-contents, 
this will crash with an assertion because of dereferencing an iterator that's 
pointing to end(). Using other example data files works fine in this case.

Looking at PositionProvider::PositionProvider in InputStream.cc, it's assigning 
posns.begin() to the position variable. In this specific case for some of these 
assignments, the posns list is empty, and therefore the position variable ends 
up with an iterator that's pointing to end(). After that when it calls 
seekToRowGroup, it eventually gets to SeekableFileInputStream::seek() where it 
tries to call next() on that PositionProvider, tries to dereference the 
iterator and gives the assertion.

I'm on Win10 using VC 2017.

Any idea if this is a bug, or am I missing something?
