Error with member "strings"

[daniele-baccega]

Hi,
I'm configuring FLAME GPU 2 on a new machine (with a NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060, with Fedora as OS) and, after installing all the requirements, I've obtained the error in the image at compilation time. Maybe I installed a library in the wrong way. Can you help me? Thanks!

You've discovered a bug in the guarding of the strings object when FLAMEGPU_SEATBELTS is set to OFF - this appears to be a gap in our CI coverage. It looks like this was introduced in #1116

Until we fix this, you can either:

• Reconfigure with -DFLAMEGPU_SEATBELTS=ON - this will result in slower simulations (but with more helpful error messages)

• Use an older version of FLAMEGPU2 from before this bug was introduced, by changing FLAMEGPU_VERSION to point to a commit which worked, and enabling FLAMEGPU_VERSION_ALLOW_HASH if pointing to a specific hash rather than the most recent release tag. 1269658 is the most recent commit which does not contain this error.

  set(FLAMEGPU_VERSION "1269658c4525798b98ad472aa150e73572febdfe" CACHE STRING "FLAMEGPU/FLAMEGPU2 git branch or tag to use")
  set(FLAMEGPU_VERSION_ALLOW_HASH "ON")
  

This is unlikely to be fixed in master until next week at the earliest.

Sorry @daniele-baccega, my fault. PR #1139 has the fix.

Once CI has passed I'll probably push it straight to master. It's a trivial fix, so I'm not bothered about a review.

This is now fixed in master.
