3 | Hi
|
---|
4 |
|
---|
5 | Jim Lovell has discovered a strange corruption bug in asap.
|
---|
6 |
|
---|
7 | When we run:
|
---|
8 |
|
---|
9 | scans = scantable('2005-03-09_172811_t002.rpf')
|
---|
10 | scans.summary(verbose=True)
|
---|
11 |
|
---|
12 | repeatably the source position become corrupted (generally it seems to be
|
---|
13 | after the third "scantable" construction.
|
---|
14 |
|
---|
15 | The above data is in /DATA/VULCAN_1/cphillip/vulcan/data/asap, but I think
|
---|
16 | any data will do.
|
---|
17 |
|
---|
18 | Cheers

128 | Seems to be a good old rpfits (fortran) memory problem.
|
---|
129 |
|
---|
130 | repeatedly opening an rpfits file with the read buggers up the refbeam field.
|
---|
131 | as the summary function looks at the refbeam to determine the positions it
|
---|
132 | fails as the reader returns a "random" value.

|
---|
138 | Mark,
|
---|
139 |
|
---|
140 | The attached data has only one beam.
|
---|
141 | This only occurs on this data set.
|
---|
142 | If I convert it to sdfits the problem is solved as you don't write this column
|
---|
143 | out unless it is MX data.
|
---|
144 | For now I have put a kludge in, which checks nBeam >1 and only then gets the
|
---|
145 | refbeam from the data.
