[cffi-devel] Could use a little help writing a defmacro for a defcfun and defun combo
by Joeish W 25 Oct '13

25 Oct '13

here is the defcfun and deffun combo ;; void cvSplit(const CvArr* src, CvArr* dst0, CvArr* dst1, CvArr* dst2, CvArr* dst3) ;; Note: I had to use "CV-MERGE" instead of "MERGE" for the Common Lisp name of CV-MERGE so I named this ;; function CV-SPLIT so they would match. (cffi:defcfun ("cvSplit" %split) :void (src cv-arr) (dest-0 cv-arr) (dest-1 cv-arr) (dest-2 cv-arr) (dest-3 cv-arr)) (defun cv-split (src dest-0 &optional (dest-1 (cffi:null-pointer)) (dest-2 (cffi:null-pointer)) (dest-3 (cffi:null-pointer))) "Divides a multi-channel array into several single-channel arrays." (%split src dest-0 dest-1 dest-2 dest-3)) it works as expected ...no errors at all my attempt at a macro(new to macros) below works in one piece of code when the defun it is in is evaluated at the repl then ran at the repl ;; #define cvCvtPixToPlane cvSplit (defmacro cvt-pix-to-plane (src dest-0 &optional (dest-1 (cffi:null-pointer)) (dest-2 (cffi:null-pointer)) (dest-3 (cffi:null-pointer))) "Macro for CV-SPLIT" `(cv-split ,src ,dest-0 ,dest-1 ,dest-2 ,dest-3)) but in the same code when used the exact same way inside emacs (using slime/sbcl on ubuntu saucy) when it is placed inside a newly opened file (.lisp) or even my well used test.lisp file and ran with slime-compile-and-load-file i get error: Objects of type SB-SYS:SYSTEM-AREA-POINTER can't be dumped into fasl files. --> CL-OPENCV::CV-SPLIT ==> #.(SB-SYS:INT-SAP #X00000000) can you help me figure out the issue and write macros with null-pointers correctly

[cffi-devel] how do i convert this code block into lisp
by Joeish W 25 Oct '13

25 Oct '13

Here is the code block which runs perfect in c CvHistogram* hist; { int hist_size[] = { h_bins, s_bins }; float h_ranges[] = { 0, 180 }; float s_ranges[] = { 0, 255 }; float* ranges[] = { h_ranges, s_ranges }; hist = cvCreateHist( 2, hist_size, CV_HIST_ARRAY, ranges, 1 ); } and here is my attempt (setf hist (let* ((hist-size (cffi:foreign-alloc :int :initial-contents (list h-bins s-bins))) (h-ranges (cffi:foreign-alloc :float :initial-contents '(0.0 180.0))) (s-ranges (cffi:foreign-alloc :float :initial-contents '(0.0 255.0))) (ranges (cffi:foreign-alloc :initial-contents (list h-ranges s-ranges)))) (create-hist 2 hist-size +hist-array+ ranges 1))) cvCreateHist info is here Im getting this error in inferior lisp....i got it to move out of lisp but it gets stuck in c. The rest of the program seems negligible so didnt post....this block i attempted to convert gets error...I tried only a few ways to write these array declarations because this is ALWAYS how i successfully do array declarations...I would be grateful for guidance and any extra info i can provide i will OpenCV Error: Unknown error code -19 (Number of dimensions is out of range) in cvCreateHist,

[cffi-devel] OSX and (gl:get-integer :num-extensions)
by Chris Bagley 24 Oct '13

24 Oct '13

I have two users for whom a call to (gl:get-integer :num-extensions) errors with: OpenGL signaled (1280 . iNVLID-ENUM) from GET-INTGER-V The only thing they both have in common it seems is OSX Here is copied from one of their slime error buffers. OpenGL signalled (1280 . INVALID-ENUM) from GET-INTEGER-V. [Condition of type CL-OPENGL-BINDINGS:OPENGL- ERROR] Restarts: 0: [CONTINUE] Continue 1: [RETRY] Retry SLIME REPL evaluation request. 2: [*ABORT] Return to SLIME's top level. 3: [ABORT] Abort thread (#<THREAD "repl-thread" RUNNING {1003448023}>) Backtrace: 0: (CL-OPENGL-BINDINGS:CHECK-ERROR #<unavailable argument>) 1: (CL-OPENGL:GET-INTEGER :NUM-EXTENSIONS 1) 2: (CEPL::GET-GL-EXTENSIONS) 3: (CEPL::CEPL-POST-CONTEXT-INITIALIZE) 4: (CEPL:REPL 640 480) 5: (SB-INT:SIMPLE-EVAL-IN-LEXENV (CEPL:REPL) #<NULL-LEXENV>) 6: (EVAL (CEPL:REPL)) 7: (SWANK::EVAL-REGION "(cepl:repl) ..) It seems from here https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/releasenotes/general/macosxlionapid… this enum was only added in OsX 10.7 (Lion) is that the most likely cause of the issue? Baggers

[cffi-devel] How do i cast variables
by Joeish W 23 Oct '13

23 Oct '13

take this for instance CvPointpoints[2]; id like to be able to cast points[2] to the CvPoint struct more info here http://docs.opencv.org/modules/core/doc/old_basic_structures.html?highlight… here is my struct which works for other things ;; (cffi:foreign-type-size '(:struct cv-point)) = 8 (cffi:defcstruct cv-point (x :int) (y :int)) put in a defparameter you cant just go (defparameter points (cffi:foreign-alloc :int :count 2)) (defparameter a ((:struct cv-point) points)) you get an illegal function call error...any help is appreciated

Need foreign string method for translate-into-foreign-memory?
by Liam Healy 20 Oct '13

20 Oct '13

Based on this report http://paste.lisp.org/display/139232 it seems like we need a method translate-into-foreign-memory for foreign-string in order that cffi-libffi works when there are both structures by value and strings in the arguments (or return). I looked at the code for translate-to-foreign for inspiration, but I'm not clear on how strings work. Is this simply a memcpy? Liam

[cffi-devel] wrapping opencv's cvError
by Joeish W 16 Oct '13

16 Oct '13

I wrapped opencv's cvError like this ;; void cvError(int status, const char* func_name, const char* err_msg, const char* file_name, int line) (cffi:defcfun ("cvError" cv-error) :void (status :int) (func-name :string) (err-msg :string) (file-name :string) (line :int)) but the whole purpose of the function is to cause an error in c which it does perfectly when i run this at the repl (cv-error +stsoutofrange+ "SCALAR" "error" "/home/w/Documents/opencv-2.4.6.1/modules/calib3d/src/epnp.cpp" 1) here is the error OpenCV Error: One of arguments' values is out of range (bew!) in SCALAR, file /home/w/Documents/opencv-2.4.6.1/modules/calib3d/src/epnp.cpp, line 1 terminate called after throwing an instance of 'cv::Exception' but the thing is it causes the error in c on the inferior-lisp buffer in emacs on the repl buffer the repl just hangs....how would i go about getting this error(above) to show up on the lisp side

Help wrapping this struct?
by Joeish W 15 Oct '13

15 Oct '13

not sure of the wording on this so pls bear with me in OpenCV when you want to create an image you do this IplImage* img=cvCreateImage(cvGetSize(imgHSV),IPL_DEPTH_8U, 1); or you can do this img=cvCreateImage(cvGetSize(imgHSV),IPL_DEPTH_8U, 1); if you've already called the below first IplImage* img; my question is...since i already wrapped cvCreateImage with this successfully ;; IplImage* cvCreateImage(CvSize size, int depth, int channels) (cffi:defcfun ("cvCreateImage" %create-image) (:pointer (:struct ipl-image)) (size :int64) (depth :int) (channels :int)) (defun create-image (size depth channels) "Create an image with dimensions given by SIZE, DEPTH bits per channel, and CHANNELS number of channels." (let ((nsize (size->int64 size))) (%create-image nsize depth channels))) and i use it all the time successfully, converting c opencv code into lisp in many programs...and have never once did this IplImage* img; I always call it in a let like this (img (create-image sz +ipl-depth-8u+ 3)) but if i wanted to expose this kind of functionality in lisp where i would call i/e (ipl-image img) first before calling(img (create-image sz +ipl-depth-8u+ 3)) how would i do that I tried writing a glue wrapper in c IplImage* IplImage_glue(int img) { return (IplImage *) img; } here is my repl history after that was compiled into a .so(ubuntu raring) CL-OPENCV> ;; IplImage* IplImage_glue(IplImage* img); (cffi:defcfun ("IplImage_glue" ipl-image) (:pointer (:struct ipl-image)) (img (:pointer (:struct ipl-image)))) IPL-IMAGE CL-OPENCV> (dp img (cffi:null-pointer)) IMG CL-OPENCV> (ipl-image img) #.(SB-SYS:INT-SAP #X00000000) CL-OPENCV> (cffi:with-foreign-slots ((n-size) img (:struct ipl-image)) (format t "n-size = ~a~%" n-size)) every thing runs up until the with-foreign-slots then.. Unhandled memory fault at #x0. [Condition of type SB-SYS:MEMORY-FAULT-ERROR] ..i assume because im not accessing a ipl-image struct pointer but maybe i am.....any help is appreciated

CFFI-UFFI incompatibility: LOOKUP-FOREIGN-ENCODING function
by Victor 09 Oct '13

09 Oct '13

Hi all, there seems to be a minor incompatibility between the latest UFFI and CFFI-UFFI-COMPAT: the LOOKUP-FOREIGN-ENCODING function is missing in the compat package. It is easy to fix by copy-pasting this function implementation from the UFFI i18n.lisp sources (see the attached patch). Could you please include it into the next CFFI release? Thanks, Victor

accessing defcstruct members as in c
by Joeish W 09 Oct '13

09 Oct '13

Here is the opencv code i'm trying to convert to lisp int size[] = { 5, 5, 5 }; CvMatND* b = cvCreateMatND(3, size, CV_32F); cvSetZero(b); int a=0; for (int x = 0; x < b->dim[0].size; x++) { for (int y = 0; y < b->dim[1].size; y++) { for (int z = 0; z < b->dim[2].size; z++) { a++; cvSet3D(b, x,y,z, cvScalar(a)); } } } in the code above it creates a 3 dimensional matrix and adds data to it in the for loop in the loop the code accesses the sizes of each dimension of the 3d matrix with dim[0].size dim[1].size and dim[2].size I'm trying to do the same in lisp....I created wrappers for the structs and the c function below and tried everything i could from nested with-foreign-slots to access the members of dim to mem-reffing and mem-areffing the out put of dims....the most i got was a plist for dim (STEP 100 SIZE 5) when i accessed the cv-mat-nd-dim struct with with-foreign-slots inside a with-foreign-slots for MATRIX i set with this (defparameter matrix (create-mat-nd 3 '(5 5 5 ) +32fc1+)) but it has only 1 item in it, in c you can access an infinite number because its an nd matrix (cffi:defcunion cv-mat-nd-data (ptr :pointer) (fl :pointer) (db :pointer) (i :pointer) (s :pointer)) (cffi:defcstruct cv-mat-nd-dim (size :int) (step :int)) ;; ;(cffi:foreign-type-size '(:struct cv-mat-nd)) = todo - doesn't work cv-mat-nd = 40 opencv's = 288 (cffi:defcstruct cv-mat-nd (type :int) (dims :int) (refcount :pointer) (hdr-refcount :int) (data (:union cv-mat-nd-data)) (dim (:pointer (:struct cv-mat-nd-dim)))) ;; CvMatND* cvCreateMatND(int dims, const int* sizes, int type) (cffi:defcfun ("cvCreateMatND" %create-mat-nd) (:pointer (:struct cv-mat-nd)) "Creates the header and allocates the data for a multi-dimensional dense array." (dims :int) (sizes :pointer) (type :int)) (defun create-mat-nd (dims sizes type) "Return a specific element of single-channel nD array."
