I've been using libpng from biicode for quite some time now. Just today, I have started receiving this error:
Cannot open include file: 'pnglibconf.h': No such file or directory
I have noticed on biicode (http://www.biicode.com/glenn/png) that the specific file is listed as _pnglibconf.h. I don't know if this is a recent change or if it has always been the case. Does someone know if the block has been modified in some way (it is still stable version 0) and if it needs to be corrected or if it can be made to work as it is somehow?
Thanks!
Biicode's "_pnglibconf.h" should be "pnglibconf.h". I don't know why there is a leading underscore. Also it is out of date; it's from libpng-1.5.10 not 1.6.10, according to the comment within it. Try copying scripts/pnglibconf.h_prebuilt to pnglibconf.h

So I started working on my first open-source contribution in ruby. There I have the library I'm working on in the /lib/ folder. Now when I tried changing the code, my program (which uses the library) still uses the old code.
For example: Broke a function on purpose by deleting its end keyword (which should be causing an immediate crash), but it kept working perfectly after I did.
Another example was changing the code in such a way it should still work (mutating the output string) but it still returned the old string.
user~$ bin/ruby-hyphen -V "this is a test sentence"
this is a test sen-tence
Does anyone know if I have to tell the runtime to refresh it or something along those lines?
I found out why that happened. The file has a *.gemspec, which made it act as if it was a gem. To see the changes I needed to enter:
gem build *.gemspec
bundle exec rake install
Or, if you want to develop quicker: change everywhere you require it into a require_relative. That should also fix it. I hope this question helps someone in the future!
When I save a golang file in visual studio code, it ends up being corrupted -- characters are removed, not in any pattern I have discerned. This has occurred at various times in the past, but has just now recurred. For details, see my bug report, "corrupting file when saving in visual studio code #49465"1.
In the meantime, what I can do until it's fixed? Perhaps I could return to an older version of gopls, but I don't know how to do that.
Any suggestions welcome. I'm stuck until I can successfully save and run my go programs.
Thanks!
Please try running the following command
GO111MODULE=on go get golang.org/x/tools/gopls#master golang.org/x/tools#master
or
GO111MODULE=on go get golang.org/x/tools/gopls#v0.3.2-pre1
In order to make progress on my project, I've downloaded the prior version of go. At least on Windows, the downgrade installs like any upgrade, including offering to remove the existing version.
And I backed up gopls to its previous version using the facilities of VS Code:
ctrl+shift+X to access extensions
right-click on Go
select Install Another Version
wait...wait...wait...
when the list of versions finally appears, select the one you want (I went back a month)
So, the underlying problem still exists, but I'm back in business. I hope these instructions can help someone else battling with the disappearing character bug.
I'm trying to go get go.etcd.io/etcd/tools/benchmark.
Previously this has worked, flawlessly. However when I try to do it currently I have alternatively got no errors and I've had it fail on me with:
go/src/go.etcd.io/etcd/vendor/google.golang.org/grpc/balancer_conn_wrappers.go:28:2: use of internal package google.golang.org/grpc/internal/buffer not allowed
go/src/go.etcd.io/etcd/vendor/google.golang.org/grpc/clientconn.go:49:2: use of internal package google.golang.org/grpc/internal/resolver/dns not allowed
go/src/go.etcd.io/etcd/vendor/google.golang.org/grpc/clientconn.go:50:2: use of internal package google.golang.org/grpc/internal/resolver/passthrough not allowed
The first time I ran it on a new go-1.13 installation it worked, but the following times it has failed as above.
The repo has not changed as far as I can tell in the past 8 months and I've tried on various golang versions but all so far have failed (bar the go-1.13 on that first try...).
Any assistance debugging this would be greatly appreciated!
I have both a workaround and an official fix.
The workaround:
Here I defined a go.mod which then used a previous version of the library.
The official fix:
This was fixed upstream and thus no one else should experience this.
I guess you can try by removing vendor folder from the go.etcd.io/etcd repo. Also disable the vendoring mode. It should work.
I am reading through Informix 4GL By Example. Ex4 is giving a segmentation fault so I am attempting to use the debugger to find out where the program is failing, but the debugger is not working.
From within r4gl, I can compile forms and modules. But when I debug it shows a blank screen with
"Press Return to continue".
From the command line fgldb returns the following error:
fgldb: symbol lookup error: fgldb: undefined symbol: kw__numkws
DB is up and running, I can isql in and run queries.
System details:
OpenSuSE 12.1 32 bit
Informix RDS 7.50 UC6
Informix SQL DEV 7.50 UC6
Informix Growth Edition 11.70 UC5
Informix Interactive Debugger 7.50 UC6
I have searched the net, but have not found anything helpful. Any idea what's wrong?
UPDATE 1:
Thank you again for the assistance. I will be trying to install in a seperate directory and let you know. This is probably blonde but how do I install in a different directory. If I attempt to I get errors:
"INFORMIXDIR and working directory do not match."
"INFORMIXDIR = /usr/informix"
"Current working directory = /usr/informix/i4gl"
Can I edit $INFORMIXDIR to match where I want to install?
Many thanks,
Neill
UPDATE 2:
OK, so I got them both installed in /usr/informix/i4gl.
Set variables to point to that directory, not sure exactly which ones need to though because I still receive errors.
fgldb: -16326: Cannot open file 'fgldb.iem'
The /usr/informix/i4gl does contain a directory msg/en_us/0333, but that file does not exist there, while /usr/informix/msg/en_us/0333 does include the fgldb.iem file.
isql -> Query Language: Says SELECT DATABASE, but none or shown for me to select.
Kind regards
Neill
UPDATE 3:
OK, my blonde momnets are getting crazy now, but after installing into /usr/informix/i4gl, I never changed back the $INFORMIXDIR variable. I did this and then stopped and started the DB.
Now when trying to compile the demo f_custkey.per (using stores_demo db as before) form, I get errors -329 and -2810, which are to do with the database not found.
I am not sure if this is what you were talking about in your last statement. I am unsure if splitting these two into seperate directories has solved my debugger issue because now I can't compile anything, but I sense I am getting close.
Kind regards,
Neill
UPDATE 4 - Final!
OK, so it is working now.
Ran the dbaccessdemo7 command again to recreate the database and all is well in the land of nod.
Compiling and debugging ex4 now works.
Thank you so much for all the information. Learning as I go.
Kind regards
Neill
The kw_numkws issue is fixed post 7.50.UC6. So the next available fixpack will have the fix.
In the interim, IBM Technical Support has posted a "Tech Alert" advising customers to install I4GL (and ISQL) in a separate directory - option #2 suggested by Jonathan Leffler above.
The core dump/crash that you're hitting is an unfortunate bug that we found out about earlier this week. The ESQL/C code is fixed (as of today), but the fixed releases are not yet available, and won't be for a while (read 'until after Thanksgiving at the earliest'). The I4GL and ISQL code still has to be fixed (some separate, but closely related problems).
What's happened is that a structure changed size in the CSDK. I4GL will be compiling the code with the one size and the CSDK libraries are expecting another size; the difference is about 4 bytes.
This leads to hard to track memory overwriting.
The kw__numkws issue is an older problem that I thought was fixed in 7.50.UC6. I'll have to check whether that release did get the fix, and if so, how you are seeing that error still.
There are a couple of short-term options that should get you going until a fixed ensemble is available:
Reinstall I4GL (and ISQL) in the server directory. I've not proved that this will work. The concept is to make sure I4GL is using the CSDK libraries it was built with, rather than the updated 3.70.xC6 version.
Reinstall I4GL (and ISQL) in a separate directory (/opt/IBM/i4gl, perhaps). Have a suitable sqlhosts file in this directory; it might be a symlink to the one in the IDS directory. Point the I4GL programs at this alternative directory, setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH appropriately.
Option 2 ensures that I4GL is using the 'correct' CSDK. Option 1 may achieve the same result, but I'm not ready to guarantee it. Consequently, I suggest option 2.
If your I4GL code needs to run DB-Access or other programs found in the server $INFORMIXDIR, there are ways to deal with that — indicate in a comment and I'll explain, but I'd rather not confound you if there's no need. (It's not dreadfully hard, but it isn't completely trivial either.)
Option 3. is to discover what CSDK was used to create the 4GL tools and install THAT instead of the current one. In the case of 4GL 7.50FC6 it CSDK 3.70FC4.
I had problems splitting up the engine and the tools. This appears to work, so far.
After upgrading to a newer version of Xcode, when I build my project I get and error:
File type mismatch (~), OutputModelPrefs.nib.
I have tried Googling and the Apple Developer Forum but I can't find out exactly what the problem is. Can anyone shed any light on what the problem might be?
Xcode stores file type information in foo.xcodeproj/project.pbxproj. Maybe you should open that file in a text editor and see if there's anything conspicuous. Look for lastKnownFileType =. If that doesn't help, maybe recreating the project will.
BTW: is that really a . nib file, not a .xib file?
I'm not sure what exactly this means, I got it in a slightly different place. Mine was complaining about a .pbxindex file with the same error message. In my case, I deleted the .pbxindex and rebuilt. After that the file was regenerated an all was fine. More info on my error here: What is Xcode pbxstrings file for?
