Hello,

Trying to install Pandaroot on an Ubuntu 8.10 system in Torino there are strange problems. Only the Mvd compilation is affected and there only the libMvdReco. The automatic backtracing points to rootcint:

To exclude many things this was done with a fresh installation of fairsoft and the trunk version 5454 of pandaroot.

When doing the make command a second time the rest of the project compiles, but the libMvdReco is screwed.

Has anybody of you encountered this "*** buffer overflow detected ***" message before?

Greetings, Ralf.

Hi Ralf

Please have a look into thefollowing discussion on the Root mailing list. Maybe this helps to solve the problem.

Hi Florian,

Looks like we have too long map variable names for some systems. Here what the root guys did:

"pcanal"

Hi,

The problem is most likely the triple!!! nested map:

map<unsigned int,map<string,map<unsigned int,short> > *>

When CINT explicits the 3rd and 4th argument of the maps, the total size name is more than 512 characters!

To solve the problem you need to #define G__LONGBUF
in G__ci.h (and recompile root).

Cheers,
Philippe.

Well, we're trying that (I'll report the result).
It is right, that the Mvd code has exactly such kind of nested vectors/maps. Unfortunately the file exists 4 times in root.

Ralf.

Hi Dmitry,

This bug is not fixed inside pandaroot. You need to search in fairsoft/tools/root for all 4 files named G__ci.h and add the line
#define G__LONGBUF
there. Then recompile root e.g. by doing
fairsoft> ./configure
again (this time it's not so long).

Kind regards, Ralf.
