Re: PSPP-BUG: Windows IO Error problem. Round 3

[John Darrington]

Thanks for the feedback Henry.

So it seems that everything is working correct now, but it's taking a VERY long
time to run.  That is not surprising, since in this patch I disabled an 
optimisation
which was supposed to make things faster.  It seems that optimisation also 
caused
problems.

I'll discuss it with Ben and hopefully provide a proper solution.

     This was stalled for four hours; I'll check back on it tomorrow and let 
you know if it finishes. The output file did not contain anything after 
FREQUENCIES (that is, nothing from LIST was output to the text file).
     
     ---
     
     PSPPIRE:
     
     Something must have been fixed because I could see all of the cases 
without truncation (however, at about 50k cases the scrolling stalled for about 
20 seconds before allowing me to continue) or the spreadsheet blanking out.
     This popped up when the scrolling stalled:
     
     clean-temp.c:661
     clean-temp.c:686 Opened C:\Users\User\AppData\Local\Temp/psppZXyLpX/0 with 
mode wb+
     src/libpspp/temp-file.c:110 Created tmpfile

     src/libpspp/temp-file.c:116 setvbuf result 0
     
     However, FREQUENCIES on a single variable took about three hours to run, 
which is a lot longer than it takes on just a slightly smaller dataset. That 
output the correct number of cases, so it's better than before in that way.
     
     I was able to get this error out of psppire:
     
     (PSPPIRE.exe:12064): Gdk-CRITICAL **: gdk_property_delete:assertion 
'window !=NULL' failed
     
     There may be other psppire errors; I'll run FREQUENCIES again to check.
