It seems "readline" isn't linked in the Mac build and installation. Configure or package repository don't indicate any issues, and yet history completions fail on mclient's sql prompt.

New Feb2013 stable branch created

by Sjoerd Mullender

I have created a new stable branch for the next feature release. This branch was created in order to stabilize the code before the feature release. From now on *only* bug fixes may go to this new stable branch. I reserve the right to undo any changes that do not comply with this rule. I also reserve the right to admit changes that are not strictly bug fixes. The name for the branch is Feb2013. So in each of your stable checkout directories you can do hg pull hg update -rFeb2013 to update to this new branch. -- Sjoerd Mullender _______________________________________________ developers-list mailing list developers-list(a)monetdb.org http://mail.monetdb.org/mailman/listinfo/developers-list

[Bug 3178] one scan is enough to implement ALGstdev_@1 in monetdb5/modules/kernel/algebra.mx

by Yinhe Cao

Hi Fabian, Thank you very much for your email. I had the same concern about the accumulation error of one-scan approach as you do, even though mathematically they should be exactly the same. I remember about 10 years ago, I did some experimentations on both of the approaches and I did not found any noticeable differences between the results, but the sample size I tried then is not huge. For the sample size of the order 1 trillion, I have the same concern even with the two-scan approach. For example, After 500 billion entries have been added to the sum of square, the rest may not be able to be added up anymore, since it may well with the range of accumulation errors! For a huge BAT, if the precision is top priority, we may need to use an hierarchical approach: divide the huge sample into some manageable block, compute it for each block first, and then aggregate the results. Thanks, Yinhe _______________________________________________ developers-list mailing list developers-list(a)monetdb.org http://mail.monetdb.org/mailman/listinfo/developers-list

BugID=3178: A patch to compute stdev using one scan of BAT is available

by Yinhe Cao

Hi, The current implementation of ALGstdev_@1 in monetdb5/modules/kernel/algebra.mx takes two scans of the BAT. First scan to compute the sum (average) Second scan to compute stdev. By using a well-known mathematical property of the stdev, one scan is enough: during the scan, the sum of the value and the square of the value can be computed together, and the stdev can be computed then. The new implementation would roughly cut the running time by half for most of meaningful cases, especially when the bat is big. Link to the patch: http://bugs.monetdb.org/attachment.cgi?id=158&action=edit Link to the bug: http://bugs.monetdb.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3178 Any comments or suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Clean install gcc pragma warnings

Hi, I just try to install MonetDB on a new system. Used hg and updated to Oct2013. y.tab.c: In function 'sqlparse': y.tab.c:6609:3: error: unknown option after '#pragma GCC diagnostic' kind [-Werror=pragmas] y.tab.c:13496:3: error: unknown option after '#pragma GCC diagnostic' kind [-Werror=pragmas] cc1: all warnings being treated as errors I'm currently running gcc (Gentoo 4.6.3 p1.7, pie-0.5.2) 4.6.3 Is this known?

RubyGem on Jul2012

by Charalampos Nikolaou

Hi there, it's my first time playing around with the Jul2012 version of MonetDB and during "make install" I encountered the following error: mkdir -p '/Library/Ruby/Site/1.8' gem install --local --install-dir '/Library/Ruby/Site/1.8' --force --rdoc 'activerecord-monetdb-adapter-0.1.gem' ERROR: While executing gem ... (Gem::FilePermissionError) You don't have write permissions into the /Library/Ruby/Site/1.8 directory. As you can see, I am on a Mac (10.7) and Ruby is installed in /Library/Ruby as indicated above, BUT since I work with many versions of MonetDB, I install all of them "locally", in my home directory. Thus, I would prefer not to install the MonetDB gem file in a system directory. Is that possible? By reading the help output of the configuration, I saw that this is not possible, or might be? Moreover, I understood by the commit messages that this addition (Ruby) is needed for providing another client for MonetDB server. While I do not need such a client, is there an option to avoid building/using/producing it in the compilation process? I didn't see any option in the configuration as well. Thanks a lot, Babis _______________________________________________ developers-list mailing list developers-list(a)monetdb.org http://mail.monetdb.org/mailman/listinfo/developers-list

Re: MonetDB: default - Low-level task scheduler.

by Sjoerd Mullender

There are a few things wrong with this code: - sz·=·((sz·<<·1)·>>·1); does *not* turn sz into a multiple of two (as suggested by the comment). This statement basically is a no-op. - when you create joinable threads, you should join them. - it's not a great idea to use assert to make sure that GDKmalloc succeeds. Better is to return an error. - The include of monet_options.h should be in the C file, not in the include file (which would be included elsewhere where monet_options.h will already be included).

Where can I add my join algorithm in MonetDB?

by Xiaojun Chang

Hi, I am one Ph.D student and right now I am working on IMDB. Could anyone tell me where I can add my join algorithm in MonetDB? I cannot find such document. Thanks.
