keckcaves / lidarviewer Goto Github PK

I mentioned this earlier here: http://doc-ok.org/?p=432#comment-1362 . I'm still having this issue, and would be happy to assist in fixing it. I could also deliver data that causes these issues for me.

It seems like random crashes while using LidarViewer. I don't see a clear way to reproduce a crash.

I get either one of these errors on OS X 10.10:

Segmentation fault: 11

or

libc++abi.dylib: terminating with uncaught exception of type IO::File::Error: IO::StandardFile: Fatal error 22 while reading from file
Abort trap: 6

I have tried redoing the preprocessing steps, but this does not help. I installed LidarViewer through homebrew.

I just figured out how to use the LidarColorMapper utility, which is actually very easy (there is just no documentation that I know of, apart from this blog comment http://doc-ok.org/?p=432#comment-1243). However, I couldn't see the colors with LidarViewer. After some poking around I discovered this is because LidarColorMapper misnamed the Colors file in the LiDAR file directory (it named it color), which probably caused LidarViewer not to notice it. Simply renaming the file made the colors visible in LidarViewer.

Similar to KeckCAVES/Vrui#2 on Mac OS 10.9. Builds fine when those dirs are created manually.
