[pgrouting-dev] Help: I have a weird bug!

[Stephen Woodbridge]

Hi Devs,

I have run into a nasty bug while merging the bi-directional astar and 
dijkstra algorithms.

Currently most of the code is getting merged into a single shared 
object. I can run tests after I merge code. the trsp code hangs the 
backend (requires a kill -9 to stop the process) if it is linked with 
the bi-directional stuff. I'm not even running the bidirectional code as 
the trsp is the first test.

I get no warnings or errors when I compile or link or install but 
running the trsp query hangs everything.

Rebuilt with the bi-directional code and everything is fine.

The test process creates a new database and installs the extensions, 
loads the data, runs the queries. So it is a clean start each time.

I have no idea how to debug this? as it appears to be a linker issue, or 
collision of symbols or globals or some such.

Any ideas or thoughts on this?

I can try to create a new shared library for the bi-directional code, 
but it seems like this issue should be tracked down and fixed if possible.
