Memory allocation error with holder block

[hu-yue]

Hi, I'm having problems with the holder block. If I try to use it the model cannot be saved, Simulink gives a Memory allocation error. If I try to start the simulation without saving it, then I get an Assertion Error reported by Stateflow, with summary object[id]!=NULL. This is the full output in the matlab command window when this happens:

Warning: Memory allocation error 
failed assertion in utils/object.cpp at line 2853:
    object[id]!=NULL

Have you ever had a problem like this? I'm launching matlab with preload:

alias matlab_codyco="LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libstdc++.so.6.0.19:/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgfortran.so.3.0.0 matlab"

Matlab version is 2013b.

It looks very similar to https://github.com/robotology-playground/WBI-Toolbox/issues/63

[jeljaik]

Looking into it.

[francesco-romano]

If you are using the superbuild, which version (aka: branch) are you using? Can you check that the superbuild and all the sub projects are properly on master? We are having hard time trying to replicate this issue.

Can you also remove the build directory and create it from scratch

[hu-yue]

I'm still on the new_wbi_ID, I'll switch to master and try again

[jeljaik]

@hu-yue master has recently been merged with new_wbi_ID, so there's no need to stay in that branch any longer. All new commits are going in master.

[traversaro]

@hu-yue detailed instructions on how to update from new_wbi_ID to master are contained in this comment: https://github.com/robotology/codyco-superbuild/issues/46#issuecomment-70580652 .

[DanielePucci]

@hu-yue try to remove the build also.

[hu-yue]

Thanks guys, after switching branch the error disappeared. =) Closing the issue.

[francesco-romano]

Let's wait for @azadm to see if the same steps solve the issue

[jeljaik]

Also after you move to the master branch we would greatly appreciate if from now on you used the create_issue.sh script (Linux & Mac) to create new issues, as it serves as a template for new issues that also automatically adds information relevant to us for proper debugging.

We are experiencing this problem when copying and pasting this block.

[azadm]

Thanks @francesco-romano I actually had to remove codyco-superbuild and install it again to solve this problem.
