Topic: New Extractor

Hi Borek,

I used to use the old extractor but seems that it's incompatible with the arbitrary numbering.
So I switched to the new extractor.
The problem that I'm facing is  it seems that it has a problem to open the input file.
here is the error:

IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'OCTHole1000.oofem.out\r'

It seems that it thinks the return character is included in the file name and because of that it cannot locate the file.

I would appreciate it if you could help me with this.

Re: New Extractor

in the line #595 of extractor.py, I changed "infile = open(oofemoutfilename[:-1])" to "infile = open(oofemoutfilename[:-2])" and it worked

Re: New Extractor

Dear Alireza,

this is because of the newline character is different on Unix/Linux and Win systems (where represented by two characters). The change you have made is a kind of quick hack, which will not work with Unix files.
The portable solution would be:

infile = open(oofemoutfilename.rstrip("/r/n"))

Re: New Extractor

Dear Borek,

Thanks for the reply. I'll change the code to this one.
Btw. I'm using Linux (86_64) not Windows.

Cheers

Re: New Extractor

I'm observing another minor problem in this new extractor.
Some times it seems that the program cannot see the end of file and it just keeps running forever.

Re: New Extractor

Dear Alireza,

if you have such an example, that breaks extractor, I would be interested to get it so I can fix the problem.

Re: New Extractor

Sure, I'll send it to you as soon as I experience it again.
