Aaah - just noticed - could this be related to #520?

I've tried this on my WinVista32-box, from command line and wx-gui, the intermediate temp files are partly written in C:\Users\syringia\AppData\Local\Temp, but r.terraflow fails with

what does "r.terraflow --help" say ?

(specifically the STREAM_DIR section)

  /* temporary STREAM path */
  struct Option *streamdir;
  streamdir = G_define_option() ;
  streamdir->key        = "STREAM_DIR";
  streamdir->type       = TYPE_STRING;
  streamdir->required   = NO;
#ifdef __MINGW32__
  streamdir->answer     = G_convert_dirseps_from_host(G_store(getenv("TEMP")));
#else
  streamdir->answer     = G_store("/var/tmp/");
#endif
  streamdir->description=
     _("Directory to hold temporary files (they can be large)");

Maris:

Aaah - just noticed - could this be related to #520?

probably not as that should be already fixed. (just not ideal)

can you try on a small (file size) raster like elevation.dem @ Spearfish? (existing 300mb doesn't seem so bad though)

can you try with --verbose so percent done is shown for nrows and we get more details?

could you clean out the temp dir? in the original report you had:

stats.out: Permission denied

at that stage. does your user account have write permission in that dir?

this isn't related to the bug AFAIK, but I notice the D8CUT variable can't seem to decide if it wants to be an integer, float, or double:

module output: D8CUT=999999986991104.000000
option.h:  float d8cut;           /* flow value where flow accu comp switches to D8 */
main.cc:  d8cut->type = TYPE_DOUBLE;
main.cc:    opt->d8cut = atoi(d8cut->answer);
main.cc:  sprintf(buf, "D8CUT=%f", opt->d8cut);

Hi, I can reproduce this in Windows XP Prof. with the 6.4.0rc6 native wingrass installer.

The temp dir option seems to be respected.

Interestingly the stats.out file ends up in C:\Program Files\GRASS-6.4\msys

it contains:

that's nothing. freeMem() is hardcoded to that on Windows.

in r41535 I've added a new debug message to devbr6.5 to show the values tested in that assert(). So we'll see what tomorrow's nightly build says about it.

On linux for elevation.dem@spearfish I get:

D3/3: nrows=466   ncols=633    stream_len()=294978

as expected.

that's nothing. freeMem() is hardcoded to that on Windows.

in r41535 I've added a new debug message to devbr6.5 to show the values tested in that assert(). So we'll see what tomorrow's nightly build says about it.

On linux for elevation.dem@spearfish I get:

D3/3: nrows=466   ncols=633    stream_len()=294978

as expected.

yes, because I added two lines to the source code so now it fails two lines later.

turn on debug messages by running g.gisenv set="DEBUG=3". (set that back to 0 to turn them off again once you are done)

(assert() complains because the two sides are not the same)

ok, so str->stream_len() is not getting set correctly.

I wonder if this works:

  /* create output stream */
  AMI_STREAM<T>* str = new AMI_STREAM<T>();

stream_len() is defined in include/iostream/ami_stream.h (number of items in each stream)

more debug messages now turned on in that r41548 (6.5svn) ...

hmmm I get "Free Memory=-1" in stats.out on 32bit linux too.

are you using the elevation raster map from the NC dataset?

so the value of the buf.st_size variable is filled with garbage. and sizeof(T) is different from what I get on linux.

for me on 32bit linux I get this output for that line (spearfish's elevation.dem)

is stat() on Windows the same as it is on UNIX?

on my version of linux .st_size should be type off_t: "total size, in bytes", and stat() should return 0 on success and -1 on failure.

is %lld the right printf() setting for off_t?

I'm not sure how big <class T> should be, but probably bigger than 1 byte.. ?

could you try r.in.bin? it also uses stat()'s .st_size.

(I notice it uses int,%d for FILE_SIZE too, so will not be LFS-safe)

Replying to hamish:

is stat() on Windows the same as it is on UNIX?

Sort of. However: if the file is open, it reports the size as zero bytes (or possibly the original size if the file was opened for update without truncation). Once the file is closed, it reports the correct size. Also, fstat() works correctly on open files.

Test case:

$ cat test.c
#include <stdio.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>

int main(void)
{
	char buf[1024];
	struct stat st;
	FILE *fp;
	int i;
	fp = fopen("test.dat", "wb");
	for (i = 0; i < 64; i++)
		fwrite(buf, 1, sizeof(buf), fp);
	fflush(fp);
	stat("test.dat", &st);
	printf("%d\n", (int)st.st_size);
	fstat(fileno(fp), &st);
	printf("%d\n", (int)st.st_size);
	fclose(fp);
	stat("test.dat", &st);
	printf("%d\n", (int)st.st_size);
	return 0;
}

$ gcc -Wall test.c
$ ./a.exe
0
65536
65536

A more portable way to determine the length of a file is to use fseek(SEEK_END), e.g.:

	long save = ftell(fp);
	fseek(fp, 0, SEEK_END);
	long size = ftell(fp);
	fseek(fp, save, SEEK_SET);
	return size;

stats.out tries to write to the current working directory, try running

(IIUC stats.out file just contains extra debug messages; STREAM is a copy of the raster map stored on disk for random access)

testing with the latest 6.5 nightly wingrass build (r41761), it looks like the stat() on an open file is in fact the problem:

fseek and ftell only work for 32-bit file offsets on 32-bit system as the offset for fseek and the return value of ftell is a long type. At least in linux, the proper return type is an off_t which can be set to 32 or 64 bits at compile time and fseeko and ftello use off_t types. A real fix should support 64 bit file offsets on 32 bit and 64-bit systems in Windows and Linux, but this gets a bit complicated. Is there a guaranteed portable 64-bit type in Grass? A portable 64-bit G_fseek might avoid future problems of this type.

In 7.0, G_fseek() and G_ftell() use off_t and use fseeko/ftello where available. But Windows doesn't have an equivalent of _FILE_OFFSET_BITS; you have to explicitly use off64_t, lseek64(), fseeko64() etc.

Also, "long" is still only 32 bits on Win64.

Finally, C89 doesn't guarantee the existence of a 64-bit type; "long long" is C99, which isn't widely supported. gcc and MSVC support "most" of C99, but not all of it. Which means that you can either code for C89, code for whichever subset of C99 is supported by some specific set of compilers, or code for C99 and be unable to find a compiler which will accept it.

GRASS aims to compile with any sane C89 compiler (excluding technically conforming yet obscure cases, e.g. 60-bit "int", ones-complement representation, etc). Anything which uses extensions should have a fall-back.

comment:27 by hamish, 14 years ago

as LFS support for WinGrass is not a goer for 6.4.0, how about if we #ifdef the ftell() patch for MINGW32 in the release branch, and leave the UNIXes running the non-portable stat() version.

Lack of large file support especially sucks for r.terraflow which likes to have very large temp files, but it's better than the current situation on WinGrass which is that the module won't run at all.

Maybe we can figure out something better to include with 6.4.1.

About stats.out: Permission denied, stats.out is not written to STREAM_DIR because everything in STREAM_DIR is deleted after successful completion, stats.out is written to the current working directory and remains there for inspection. On my test Windows system, the current directory is /c/Dokumente und Einstellungen/Markus and I can write to it.

r.terraflow is on windows crippled by missing LFS in GRASS. Its strength is its performance with massive datasets, but these can't be processed on windows because of the 2GB file size limit. Grass with LFS on windows will likely only be available in grass 7, planned for next month, but not in grass 6. r.terraflow is working fine on Linux and its functionality is covered by other modules, therefore it is IMHO not critical to have a working r.terraflow on windows. It would be very nice though.

Considering this as well as previous comments, I think it's more realistic to get it fixed in 6.4.1 or 6.5, but under windows it will be really useful only in grass 7.0 with LFS.

I don't think we are far off having this working -- it may be working in 6.5 already and just need a backport.

r.terraflow (and v.buffer) are flagship modules for GRASS and frankly it's an embarrassment not to have them working properly (even if their full glory is crippled as in the case of LFS + r.terraflow).

r.terraflow (and v.buffer) are flagship modules for GRASS and frankly it's an embarrassment not to have them working properly (even if their full glory is crippled as in the case of LFS + r.terraflow).

Its flagship character comes from its ability to process very large datasets, but all its functionality including the ability to process large datasets is also covered by other modules. Without LFS, r.terraflow is limited to less than 27 million non-NULL cells, converting the module from a flagship to a dinghy. I am very much inclined to change milestone to 7.0 and set priority to normal.

Tested 6.5svn r42716 on XP, same error as in comment:29 in filldepr.cc. Once that is fixed, we might have a look at why r.terraflow refuses to run with output from r.volcano...

we could easily say the same for all of GRASS. some parts will be easier to port than others, but if we didn't care about MS-Windows at all we could have released 6.4 mid-last year. in this case it sucks, is not known to be fundamentally deep, and I'd like to try and fix it. even if it is crippled due to LFS (you might say 32bit XP is too with its 3.2gb RAM limit), at least people can still work on tutorials/examples and learn how to use it for when they graduate to a gruntier system.

Most parts of grass are not giving problems with mingw32, maybe because these adhere to C89? C++ doesn't, so problems might be expected here.

[snip] even if it is crippled due to LFS (you might say 32bit XP is too with its 3.2gb RAM limit),

You might say that mingw32 is the problem (apart from the msys problems). IIUC, stuff compiled on e.g. Windows7 64bit with mingw32 is still 32bit and has all the 32bit limits, even if the OS is 64bit. Plus other annoyances like sizeof(long) = 4 on Windows 64bit.

I removed the noisiest one, will do the rest after testing tomorrow's autobuild. (and of course merge with trunk too)

If it doesn't change results on UNIX it may as well go into 6.4.0. It doesn't matter how risky it is on Windows as it can't be worse than before. If you feel there's a risk for breakage on UNIX from this we could wait til 6.4.1 for the backport & disable building it in 6.4.0, but we should perhaps look over the menus in that case to make sure that the emphasis and descriptions are all up to date.

I've tried a self compiled Grass65 (r42743) in the osgeo4w-tree on my WinVista32-box with nc-sample-dataset started from the gui.

r.terraflow elevation=elevation filled=ff direction=dd accumulation=aa tci=tt memory=800

r.terraflow starts and seems to calculate, but after a while, the gui freezes

Try less memory, e.g. default 300 (are there currently 800MB free on your vista 32bit box?). Or wait for it complete...

Markus M

the whole wx-gui freezes also with 300mb.

starting r.terraflow from the msys-command-line, it's finishing all calculations.

Hmm. Good to hear that it works on CLI. In wxGUI, it might become better once the debug messages have been removed, I had to clear output regularly to get it going again. Too much for the wxGUI output window?

menudata.xml is maintained by source:grass/trunk/gui/wxpython/support/update_menudata.py which touches only description and keywords (based on command usage desc).

thanks, added some notes as

source:grass/trunk/gui/wxpython/xml/menudata.README

how to get that into the programmer's manual? doxygen in header comments of update_menudata.py?

probably. You'll get similar GUI lockup failures if you try and run vector modules while DEBUG=5. It can't handle the incoming message volume. Tcl/Tk had the same problem.

Hi, just tested 6.5svn r42750 nightly build on XP. And I'm back to the original error message & exit code 3:

This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way.
Please contact the application's support team for more information.

the length = 9175040 reported by the debug message jumps around every time I run it, sometimes it's 0, sometimes its ~550000 or so.

  • also often it dies just after the "stats.out file found, renaming." message with error code 1. rm stats.out* at the msys prompt gets it working again.

Close to an insult to ask, but have you done make distclean (package.sh doesn't)? You could check the headers in include/grass/iostream in the installation dir (not the source dir) to see if the patches are really in there.

I've tried a completly fresh svn-checkout of Grass65 in my WinVista32. r.terraflow works and finishes also now in the wx-gui.

not at all,

I tried the nightly binary snapshot from josef.fsv.cvut.cz. Even if package.sh does not, I don't know if the build script does (or does not).

When back at work with access I will check that, hopefully it explains it...

I have now added "make distclean" to source:grass-addons/tools/wingrass-packager/grass_compile.sh

maybe it should better go into mswindows/osgeo4w/package.sh, changing the 'make clean' after ./configure there to 'make distclean' before. I leave that decision to the script's authors & runners. (I assume they update this by hand anyway)

I had a look changing it in package.sh, but I think that needs more fundamental change. Right now it is only re-running ./configure and 'make clean' on fresh checkouts. Given that, I'm surprised that trunk still builds actually.

Replying to hamish:

patch attached for consideration. debug messages should be removed after testing.

The patch seems to work in combination with the later patch, results are identical between windows grass65, Linux grass65 patched and Linux grass65 unpatched.

Note that the patch for stream_len() contradicts the principle of r.terraflow to avoid random seek at all costs, fseek should only be called to reset the file pointer to the beginning of the file. Each call to the patched stream_len in mingw32 calls fseek twice, and stream_len itself is called very often as the debug messages illustrate (so often that wxGUI might freeze...). As a result, r.terraflow is heavily slowed down on windows: using elevation.10m from spearfish60 as input (2.6 million cells) takes with r.terraflow twice as long as with r.watershed in disk swap mode, and that even though all temp files also of r.terraflow are small enough to be cached by my test system.

Replying to mmetz:

stream_len itself is called very often

In which case, it shouldn't be calling stat() either. This isn't exactly fast on Unix, is quite slow on Windows, and is extremely slow on Cygwin.

On Unix, fstat() is typically significantly faster than stat(), as stat() needs to resolve the pathname to an inode, which requires lookups and permission checks on each component in the path.

However: both fstat() and stat() reflect the size of the underlying file, which isn't necessarily the same as the size of the stream (FILE*) if buffering is in use. The only reliable way to determine the size of a stream is fseek(SEEK_END)+ftell().

If stream_len() is called often, it would be better to make the AMI_STREAM class keep track of its own length, updating it in the write_item() and write_array() methods.

6.4.0svn nightly build r42815 and 6.5svn r42819 on XP: still dies with the assertion mismatch in grass2str.h line 144 as in original report.

perhaps 'make distclean' is still not making it through to the nightly builds??

if I try again it also still dies if stats.out already exists in the pwd after giving you a 'renaming stats.out' message.

I can confirm this with 6.4.0svn nightly build r42815 on my WinVista32-box.

in my self-compiled grass64 and grass65 r.terraflow is working. also in a self built WinGrass-installer of grass64 and grass65.

but for compiling I have to comment out the lines added in r42799, r42797 because package.sh isn't working for me.

Maybe because configure-stamp has not been removed before running package.sh again [1]

Should be fixed by r42837. Please test the next build (this night). Martin

comment:58 by hamish, 14 years ago

Resolution: fixed
Status: newclosed

nightly package builds now working; module limited to 32bit files on WinGrass moved to #1106; D8CUT variable type confusion moved to #1107.

now works on WinGrass; closing bug.
