Hi,
I just found a mistake in one of my programs which reveals what I
guess is an error in the PDL::IO::FastRaw.
$ pdl
...
pdl> # create a small ndarray and map it to disk
pdl> use PDL::IO::FastRaw;
pdl> $a=mapfraw("rem.dat", {Datatype=>cdouble, Dims=>[10], Creat=>1});
pdl> q # quit pdl
$ ... # do whatever
$ pdl # and come back to pdl
...
pdl> # Create a large ndarray and map it to the now existing file
pdl> $b=mapfraw("rem.dat", {Datatype=>cdouble, Dims=>[1000]});
pdl> # There is no complain about incompatible dimensions
pdl> p $b((-1)); # Try to print the last element
Bus error
$
mapfraw allowed me to create an ndarray and map it to an existing file
even though the dimensions were incompatible, but then, there was a
bus error with no diagnostic information about the cause.
I guess mapfraw should died on the spot alerting me on the discrepancy
instead of continuing with the execution.
Best regards,
Luis
