(Dimon) Program death with mac but not linux binaries

AFNI Message Board
1

Hi,

I’m receiving the below fatal error on a Mac when attempting to use Dimon to read Siemens .IMA files e.g.
Dimon -infile_prefix -assume_dicom_mosaic

  • The error occurs when using Precompiled binary macosx_10.7_local: Aug 28 2018 (Version AFNI_18.2.15)
    but does not occur when using Precompiled binary linux_openmp_64: Sep 27 2018 (Version AFNI_18.2.19)
  • Using Precompiled binary macosx_10.7_local works for some .IMA files for some subjects, but the crash error is more frequent than not

thanks,

Susan

Just to touch base on this, the problem seems to relate to very
long file names, or at least shortening them is a work-around.

However the real problem is looking like compiler optimization
failure. Compiling the code without optimization makes the
problem go away. Such issues are difficult to resolve… :frowning:
