Hello, Thanks for the message.

I saw that some messages are written on XTERM and not on Scilab window. Well, I did new test with a simple function in home+"/macros" function out=testadd(a,b) // To test process for lib // // Syntax // out=testlib(a,b) // Parameters // a: scalar // b: scalar // Description // Add to scalar // Author // Me // Bibliography // Nothing out=a+b; endfunction and I generate the lib "testlib". Contrary to what I wrote, that works fine. I did mistake when I used clear. It must be --> clear testlib testadd and not --> clear testlib, testadd (testadd should also be cleared if it has been called, because load("macros/lib") is not enough to replace the function already loaded in Scilab memory, I guess) So, there is no problem with the updated library though the load is fisrtly done in .scilab. I don't need to restart Scilab to use the updated library "testlib". The problem still remains for the help: --> help_from_sci("macros","help/gl_GL") help_from_sci: Reading from directory macros help_from_sci: Processing of file: macros/testadd to help/gl_GL/testadd help_from_sci: processed 1 files. ans = "" Of course I created the help/gl_GL directory before, otherwise there is an error, and testadd.xml is created (gl is for globish, english is out of my reach) --> xmltojar("help/gl_GL","My test lib","gl_GL") jar/scilab_gl_GL_help.jar is udpated, and there is also a message in the linux XTERM with the number of generated files. --> add_help_chapter("My test lib","jar") T --> help The chapter "My test lib" is in the help window with the function testadd. --> del_help_chapter("My test lib") --> help The chapter is not in the help, as expected. --> add_help_chapter("My test lib","jar") T I change the head comment and rebuilt the help: --> help_from_sci("macros","help/gl_GL") a warning mentions that the file exists, but I choose "create anyway" --> xmltojar("help/gl_GL","My test lib","gl_GL") the files are updated --> help Could not load file: /home/jbaudais/jar/scilab_gl_GL_help.jar. Please check its contents, must be a Java Help file. Error message: Could not parse Got an IOException (JAR entry scilab_gl_GL_help/jhelpset.hs not found in /home/jbaudais/jar/scilab_gl_GL_help.jar) Parsing failed for null However, I can open the file "jhelpset.hs", so the message is wrong, the entry "scilab_gl_GL_help/jhelpset.hs" exists in the file "/home/jbaudais/jar/scilab_gl_GL_help.jar", on the filesystem of course, but Scilab use its memory (stack, heap?) and not the filesystem. Maybe the "scilab_gl_GL_help.jar" is corrupted by xmltojar on the Scilab memory. What do you think? I try --> del_help_chapter("My test lib") before modification, and --> add_help_chapter("My test lib","jar") but that change nothing. I must restart scilab and --> add_help_chapter("My test lib","jar") --> help it works fine. So, I have no solution to rebuilt the help without Scilab restart, from scratch! I think the corresponding Scilab memory is not correctly updated or is corrupted somewhere (xmltojar, add_help_chapter?), so we must restart Scilab. Do you have the same behaviour? -- Jean-Yves PS : I read the discussion about profile and did test. Is there similar tool to check memory within Scilab, or do we need to use external tools as valgrind? _______________________________________________ users mailing list users@lists.scilab.org http://lists.scilab.org/mailman/listinfo/users
