the current version of OpenImageR (1.2.8) passes all tests on CRAN for all three operating systems (Linux, Mac OSX, Windows). Which version of OpenImageR you use and for which operating system?
the current version of OpenImageR (1.2.8) passes all tests on CRAN for all three operating systems (Linux, Mac OSX, Windows). Which version of OpenImageR you use and for which operating system?
CRAN tests are pretty useless to test anything but a few mainstream OS versions.
This is 1.2.8 on 10.6.8 Rosetta (so ppc32); R 4.3.0, gcc 12.2.0.
I took a look because I'm not familiar with Power PC's (if this is meant by 'ppc32')
It seems you work on snow leopard (as the version 10.6.8 is an updated version of Mac OSx 10.6)
I use both the CRAN checks and Github actions for the tests and try to fix errors related to the Operating systems supported from cran and github actions. Currently on CRAN it seems that the following ac OSX versions are checked:
- 11.6.7
- 13.3
- 11.3
- 10.13.6 (old release)
It's not easy to check besides the various operating systems also specific versions of hardware and most of the times besides testing and checking locally I use also R-hub
It may be hard to emulate 10.5 or 10.6 ppc (unless you use a VM, then Rosetta allows building and running ppc binaries, or otherwise have an 2010–2012 Mac to install 10.6.8), but Linux on ppc 32-bit should be possible via GH actions or similar setups. (Theoretically, Qemu should emulate the arch, but I have no experience here and dunno how well that works. Rosetta in VM works fine for the most development tasks, exceptions are there, but irrelevant to our case.)
But I realise this may be a pain to deal with. I can do testing on my end, if you could suggest to try something.
the 2 test cases that fail seem to be related to rounding differences between the operating systems
testthat::test_that("the 'norm_matrix_range' returns the correct output ( range = c(-1,1) )", {
# rounded to 8 digits as in np$interp()
res = round(norm_matrix_range(mt, min_value = MIN, max_value = MAX), 8)
testthat::expect_true(identical(res, np_res))
})
testthat::test_that("the 'norm_matrix_range' returns the correct output ( range = c(0,255) )", {
# rounded to 8 digits as in np$interp()
res = round(norm_matrix_range(mt, min_value = MIN_, max_value = MAX_), 8)
testthat::expect_true(identical(res, np_res_255))
})
I can add an exception for these 2 test cases for your OS and arch. Can you show me what you receive when you run the following in R or Rstudio (exclude any personal info if printed in the console)?
str(.Platform)
Sys.info()[c("sysname", "release", "version", "machine")]
str(version)
Normally, these exceptions are discouraged on CRAN but I think it's acceptable for cases as yours
@mlampros Here is the output on 10.6.8:

There are four relevant PPC cases on macOS: 10.4.11, 10.5.8, 10.6 ppc (10A190) and 10.6.8 Rosetta.
These will be:
powerpc-apple-darwin8.11.0
powerpc-apple-darwin9.8.0
powerpc-apple-darwin10.0.0d2
powerpc-apple-darwin10.8.0
I added an exception in the test-file for the case of a Mac OSx Power-pc
Can you install the updated OpenImageR version using
remotes::install_github('mlampros/OpenImageR', dependencies = TRUE)
and confirm that it works for you as well

Thank you too for making me aware of this issue. In the next days I'll submit the updated version to CRAN.
Feel free to re-open the issue if the code does not work as expected
