Bug #5412: saving with an open plot window crashes - Kepler - Ecoinformatics Redmine

Updated by Christopher Brooks almost 13 years ago

I checked in a change to ptolemy.plot.Plot, but I can't verify
that the problem is fixed in Kepler because Kepler does not build
in a fresh tree for me.

Before the change, I could not replicate the problem in Ptolemy.
I ran
$PTII/bin/vergil ~/ptII/ptolemy/domains/sdf/demo/Butterfly/Butterfly.xml
and then tried to save the model.

When you say "Kepler crashes", do you mean that the Kepler process exits
or do you mean that you get a stack trace?

If Kepler crashes, then there is a more substantial problem that should be fixed.

I temporarily modified ptolemy/plot/Plot.java to always throw an
exception:

/** Write plot format information to the specified output stream in                          
 *  PlotML, an XML scheme.                                                                   
 *  @param output A buffered print writer.                                                   
     */
    public synchronized void writeFormat(PrintWriter output) {
        super.writeFormat(output);

if (1==1) {
            throw new RuntimeException("Test for internal error while writing");
    }

When I run the above veril command, I can try to save the plot or the model
and I get a stack trace in both situations, but Vergil stays running.

Could you make a similar change to the Plot.java file in Kepler and
verify that Kepler remains running even if there is an exception?

I added throw new RuntimeException to Plot.java and saving to XML generates an exception, but saving to KAR exits Kepler.

I updated Plot.java to r61046 to get your fix, and still get errors, but these don't appear related to Plot. In both cases, Kepler does not exit.

Saving to XML:
