Recurring error message

Post by Hypatia »

Having a recurrent error message. I cannot figure out what is causing it as it appears randomly and can then disappear as well. Once it has triggered I cannot move tokens, copy paste or anything really. I can close it and sometimes continue for a bit but then it pops up again. It happens both when I am working on the campaign on my own and when I am running a server (LAN, just 2 computers) and also pops up on the 2nd screen ( though not always at the same time as on mine). Driving me mad.
I am running 1.4 and Java 8.
Here is the message. Followed by the debug info

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Comparison method violates its general contract!

Someone posted a similar issue http://forums.rptools.net/viewtopic.php?f=86&t=27481

Have a look.

Indeed, you have a matching stacktrace. So I suspect the same error, that there is a corrupted token somewhere.

Suspicious that we have had two recently. Mind you the other thread was with 1.4.1.7, which is a long standing release so probably just coincidence. Unless its brought about by a recent Java update :?

Does Xavram's fix (duplicating the map) generate new asset id's for tokens?

If so... that's probably the issue.

If you duplicate a map the tokens on the new map get new IDs but the asset IDs for the images used by the tokens are the same.

The stacktrace points to token comparison rather than asset id, so hopefully duplicating the map will cure the problem.

What's being sorted is:

Code: Select all

	private final List<Token> tokenOrderedList = new LinkedList<Token>();
And the only thing the Comparator for the Token class does is compare the names:

Code: Select all

	public static final Comparator<Token> NAME_COMPARATOR = new Comparator<Token>() {
		public int compare(Token o1, Token o2) {
			return o1.getName().compareToIgnoreCase(o2.getName());
		}
	};
Hmm, compareToIgnoreCase() returns just a signed integer and is not restricted to just {-1, 0, 1}. Does that matter when implementing compare()?

The zone.putToken is also doing a zorder comparison. Which although still fairly simple, is slightly more complex and perhaps a more likely candidate for the error.

I dare say that without a problem map/campaign file to work with no one is likely to find the actual cause of the problem.

This is all over the forum since months and I have been away some time, so maybe I'm missing something.

But timsort, the (new) default sorting algorithm in Java, reacts allergic to comparators not compatible with equals. The above mentioned comparator is not compatible. You have three choices: (a) make the comparator compatible to the default equals, (b) implement equals on the objects being compared, (c) ignore the problem and add the -DuseLegacySort switch in the startup scripts.

There has been some headway...

@OP Do you happen to be using Isometric/Figure tokens?

Again, I have the feeling I am missing something. The NAME_COMPARATOR is not used and I would completely remove it.
In other words, I cloned the repo https://github.com/RPTools/maptool, removed this static instance completely and everything built (./gradlew clean release) fine. (Maybe getting to techy here?)

But that wouldn't solve the problem. :?

As Jagged pointed out, there is a zorder comparator in there as well and it is used.

The suspicion is that this is only affecting users using iso grids and figure tokens though we haven't been able to reproduce the issue. While there have been several people who have reported it none of them have provided us with a campaign file or map that reproduces it.

If you can reproduce it and identify the exact problem, great.

Not sure it necessarily has to be on an iso map or using figure tokens. Since all maps will be using the same z-order comparator.

Still, an example map/campaign would help greatly.
