While we always try to test each release as much as we can, inevitably some bugs will always slip through unnoticed. This page only shows the most important bugs that have surfaced after the release was made.

Remember to also check the bugs on the project website. To stay up to date with the latest news and releases, we also recommend subscribing to our mailinglist here. Traffic will be kept to a minimum and you can unsubscribe at any time. (Note: due to technical reasons you will not be able to post on the mailing list)

If you happen to encounter something not listed here, please report it.

Version 4.0

Bug The toolbox goes into a seemingly infinite loop if u are using the Matlab sample evaluator and there is an error in your matlab function.
Status Wont fix
Workaround This is due to the poor Java -> Matlab interface and thus there is little we can do about it. It is best to make sure your function runs without error by running it manually.


Bug In some rare cases the toolbox goes into an infinite loop when using the grid sample selector.
Status Fixed in SVN.
Workaround This happens in some rare cases, and is due to the way the grid SE works. This will be fixed in the next release. In the meantime, if you run into the problem use a different sample selector or combine the grid SE with a different SE (e.g., the random SE) using the CombinedSampleSelector.


Bug If the first component inside the <Plan> tag is a component that is overridden in the <Run> tag, a NullPointerException occurs
Status Fixed in SVN.
Workaround This is a very obscure bug, simply make sure that the first component in your <Plan> tag is one that is NOT overridden in a <Run> tag. Use for example <ContextConfig>.


Bug When modeling the same output multiple times in parallel, some profilers may interfere with each other
Status Fixed in SVN.
Workaround Avoid modeling the same output multiple times in the same run. Try using different runs or turning off the profilers that give problems.

Version 3.3

Bug Loading a saved model file from disk gives warnings and in some cases even errors (see the FAQ)
Status fixed in the latest snapshots
Workaround if you are lucky you can just ignore the warnings and it should work, in some cases it wont and you will need to upgrade


Bug Movie generation gives problems on windows
Status Fixed
Workaround Use a different operating system (Linux, OSX, ...) or upgrade and edit src/matlab/modelbuilders/@AdaptiveModelBuilder/createMovie.m file so it creates an avi instead of a mov file (Warning: the avi file is not compressed and may be very big!)
