Sorry to bring this up again, but... here's a program of mine to test
the TMapFile class. All it does is create the file, as you can see. I
compiled it with the command
g++ -o new2 new2.cxx -I$ROOTSYS/include `root-config --glibs` -lNew
,using ROOT 3.01/06 on a linux/ecgs machine. If I then fire up rootn.exe
and try opening the file with
f2=TMapFile::Create("monitor.map")
it either seg faults so bad I have to kill the window (when the size above
is 1000000), or seg faults when I exit ROOT (when the size is 100000).
When I tried 10000 as the file size, nothing happened. Any idea of what's
going wrong? I don't think I even need a file that big (~ 1MB), but I'll
have to check. Even so...
#include <string.h>
#include "TMapFile.h"
int main(int argc,char* argv[]) {
char source[100];
if(argc>=2)
strcpy(source,argv[1]);
else
strcpy(source,"monitor.map");
TMapFile::Create(source,"RECREATE",10000); //tried different sizes
return 0;
}
