fix to issue #91: Variable self._runtime referenced before initialization in vot/tracker/__init__.py #92

Closed imadtoubal closed 1 year ago

imadtoubal commented 1 year ago

Looks like the member variable self._runtime is referenced before being initialized in vot/tracker/__init__.py line 829 resulting in the error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/mvl2/itdfh/anaconda3/envs/vot/lib/python3.10/site-packages/vot/utilities/cli.py", line 412, in main

    runtime = MultiObjectTrackerRuntime(runtime)

    if self._runtime.multiobject:
AttributeError: 'MultiObjectTrackerRuntime' object has no attribute '_runtime'

Changing this line 829 from:

        if self._runtime.multiobject:

to:

        if runtime:

solves the issue.

Have there been any successful uses of a multi-object tracker using this toolkit? Can I see some examples?

Fine, I will accept the pull request, it is harmless. But note that MultiObjectTrackerRuntime is not really supported in any case (and is not complete) at the moment as it will cause resource problems for many modern trackers. It was only considered as a bridge do old (fast) tracking algorithms that work in single-object mode.
