Crash during date axis setup #557
Comments
@elpres : Without wanting to cause any offence, I (and I suspect others who do mpl development) greatly appreciate the fact that you have provided the full sample data to reproduce the problem; however I would not be willing to open a pickle file downloaded from the internet (http://nadiana.com/python-pickle-insecure). Is there any way you could boil this down to just a couple of lines of code? Does simply repr-ing the first 5 or so records work? |
I ignored the security warning and followed the instructions of @elpres--but I get a nice plot with no errors, so I can't reproduce the problem. (mpl master, python 2.7.3) |
Thanks for picking this up. I've just tested it again and everything worked fine, so whatever caused the problem seems to have been fixed in either the MPL update from 1.1.0 to 1.1.1 or Python 2.7.2 to 2.7.3. And sorry about causing fears about malicious pickle content; I didn't know about the possible security risks and it seemed as the easiest way to provide exactly the same dataset. Is there any other way to serialize Python objects other than dumping them as text (which is not lossless) and parsing back in? |
I'm using 1.1.0 on Arch Linux with Python 2.7.2, and while plotting some charts with dates on the x axis, i get this crash:
The same error and traceback are reported twice when the crash happens. There is no crash with a different input dataset, and the date range in this one doesn't have any invalid values, as far as i can see.
Here's how to reproduce it:
The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
