Suppose I have three fits images (file1.fits, file2.fits, and file3.fits).The middle one(file2.fits) is a bad image. When i run imheader it shows ![result]
file1.fits[1092,736][ushort]: bias
file2.fits[1092,736][ushort]: ASAS135406
file3.fits[1092,736][ushort]: flat
But when i run imstat it shows Result
ERROR: Pixel storage file is truncated (file2.fits)
It gave the result for the first image, but the execution stops as soon as it encounters a bad file. How to ignore the bad file and continue the execution

I have only one requirement. I need to read PDF page size and determine if page is not bigger then 17x17 inches to not send it to some external service which rejects such pdfs.
Is there any free library working on .NET Core? I wasn't able to find it. Or maybe anyone implemented this by reading binary file?
A pdf does not HAVE TO declare page size externally since every page can be a different size thus 100 pages may be 100 different page sizes.
However many PDF will contain a text entry for one or more pages so you can (depending on construction) parse as text for /MediaBox and or potentially /CropBox dimensions.
So the first PDF example I pick on and open to search for /MediaBox in WordPad tells me its 210 mm x 297 mm (i.e my local A4) /MediaBox [0 0 594.95996 841.91998] and for a 3 page file all 3 entries are the same.
you can try that using command line as
type "filename.pdf" | find /i "/media"
but may not work in all cases so a bigger chance of result (but more chaff) is
type "filename.pdf" | findstr /i "^/media ^/crop"
The value is based on the default number of point size units per inch (so can be divided by 72 as a rough guide), however, thats not your aim since you know you dont want more that 17x72=1224.
So in simple terms, if either value was over 1224 then I could reject as "TOO BIG".
HOWEVER I need to also consider those two 0 values, thus if one was +100 then the limit becomes 100 more and more importantly, if one was -100 then your desired 17" restriction will fail at 1124.
So you can write in any method or language (even CMD) a simple test, however, that will require too much expanding to cover all cases, SO:-
Seriously I would use / shell a one line command tool like xpdf/poppler pdfinfo to parse all different types of PDF and then grep that output.
The output is similar for both with many lines but for your need
xpdf\pdfinfo -box filename
gives Page size: 594.96 x 841.92 pts (A4) (rotated 0 degrees)
and
poppler\pdfinfo -box filename
gives Page size: 594.96 x 841.92 pts (A4)
Thus to check the file does not exceed 17" (in either direction) it should be easy to set a comparison testing that both values are under 1224.01
I'm using a variable that is using too large symbol/string in Scilab, which is giving following error:
Too large string. at line 44 of exec file called by :
exec('/proj/shubhamj/shubhamj/scilab/final_add_from_script.sce', -1)
I've already used stacksize('max').
According to this thread on the mailing list for Scilab the error comes from the length of the command. You can get the same error without the exec() if you call a command that is too long even in your current script (where the exec() call currently is).
If we look at the documentation the default stacksize is approx. 76MB (megabytes) and that is a lot of characters which makes this issue 99.9% not related to the size of the stack.
When I tried to use monkeyrunner command to run recorder, I got the error: mismatched input 'monkey_recorder' expecting NEWLINE.
Here is screenshot of my command.
enter image description here
You should try AndroidViewClient/culebra which will give you some advantages over monkeyrunner and monkey_recorder. For example, instead of recording the screen coordinates for a touch, culebra records the selector of the View touched so the script or test will be screen coordinates agnostic.
See Culebra GUI page for details.
In QT-creator I am getting the following error:
ASSERT failure in QVector::operator[]: "index out of range", file c:\QtSDK\Desktop\Qt\4.8.1\mingw\include/QtCore/qvector.h, line 359
My problem is that it does not specify which QVector is out of range... Even when I run in debug mode I cannot find the location of the error. Is there a way to easily find the error? The code is quite huge and the error only pops up every once in a while so it would be a lot of work to check every qVector I use separately.
Assuming you are using Qt Creator, there is a "Stack" window which shows the function calls which led to the point where your program stopped:
In that window, double click the first file which you know is your own file, in that screenshot it is main.cpp in line 5. The file will open and a yellow arrow will be shown. The line which caused the assertion is the line above that yellow arrow (That arrow actually points to the next statement which would have been executed)
I'm writing a program that performs several tests on a hardware unit, and logs both the results of each test and the steps taken to perform the test. The trick is that I want the program to log these results to a text file as they become available, so that if the program crashes the results that had been obtained are not lost, and the log can help debug the crash.
For example, assume a program consisting of two tests. If the program has finished the first test and is working on the second, the log file would look like:
Results:
Test 1 Result A: Passed
Test 1 Result B: 1.5 Volts
Log:
Setting up instruments.
Beginning test 1.
[Steps in test 1]
Finished test 1.
Beginning test 2.
[whatever test 2 steps have been completed]
Once the second test has finished, the log file would look like this:
Results:
Test 1 Result A: Passed
Test 1 Result B: 1.5 Volts
Test 2 Result A: Passed
Test 2 Result B: 2.0 Volts
Log:
Setting up instruments.
Beginning test 1.
[Steps in test 1]
Finished test 1.
Beginning test 2.
[Steps in test 2]
Finished test 2.
All tests complete.
How would I go about doing this? I've been looking at the help files for QFile and QTextStream, but I'm not seeing a way to insert text in the middle of existing text. I don't want to create separate files and merge them at the end because I'd end up with separate files in the event of a crash. I also don't want to write the file from scratch every time a change is made because it seems like there should be a faster, more elegant way of doing this.
QFile.readAll will read the entire file into a QByteArray.
On the QByteArray you can then use insert to insert text in the middle,
and then write it back to file again.
Or you could use the classic c style that can modify files in the middle with the help of filepointers.
As #Roku pointed out, there is no built in way to insert data in a file with a rewrite. However if you know the size of the region, i.e., if the text you want to write has a fixed length, then you can write an empty space in the file and replace it later. Check
this discussion in overwriting part of a file.
I ended up going with the "write the file from scratch" method that I mentioned being hesitant about in my question. The benefit of this technique is that it results in a single file, even in the event of a crash since the log and the results are never placed in different files to begin with. Additionally, rewriting the file only happens when adding new results (an infrequent occurrence), whereas updating the log means simply appending text to the file as usual. I'm still a bit surprised that there isn't a way to have the OS insert text into a file for you.
Oh, and for those of you who absolutely must have this functionality as efficiently as possible, the following might be of use:

You just cannot add more stuff in the middle of a file. I would go with two separate files, another for the results and another for the logs.
