Description: The program throws an exception at a very simplistic example
Extension / Version: aiSee   /   2.2
Type / Status: Bug   /   open

Problem

cfish & fcfish crash

The error seems to happen during png output generation.

Wgraph:Demo importance

graph "Demo_importance" . {
  edge A B {}
  edge B C {}
  edge A C {}
  view cfish
}

pfish doesn´t want to show nodes

Is that a bug or a feature? Or must one set importance to some value?

Reply

The cfish/fcfish crash has been fixed, but the nodes are now missing in these examples, too. We're trying to figure that one out right now.

As a (funny but useless) side note, we found out that the crash only occurred on 32-bit machines, not on 64-bit ones.
