Error: "too many iterations in Jacobi transform" #190

Open davetcoleman opened 7 years ago

davetcoleman commented 7 years ago

I get this error when using FCL with MoveIt! on rare occasion, and I haven't been able to understand why. From matrix_3f.h in the FCL code I see the error message:

std::cerr << "eigen: too many iterations in Jacobi transform." << std::endl;

Any hints would be appreciated in how to avoid this from segfaulting my program. Note I'm using ROS Kinetic, thus FCL 0.5

Could you give the input matrix generating the error ? It would be helpful to see if the matrix actually fits the requirements of the Jacobi algorithm.

@jmirabel thanks for following up. i eventually realized I was creating a MoveIt! RobotState will null values, due to another bug, that was getting converted into a FCL robot and the only error I was getting was this one. if i see this problem again, i can open a pull request that would improve FCL's warning by testing if null values might be the case and telling the user
