I tested this with a basic ESRI module with Central GA’s data. I got the same errors as above. It looks different in the Futura module. I have a sneaky suspicion there are method signatures that are not matching up. ESRI error resembles the above scenario, while the Futura error is nice enough to give geometry bytes. Below are sample errors from each:

A little sanity testing, I created a base EsriPublisher install, pointed to Talquin’s v.10 database, and get the following error. Whole log attached. Base Esri install in T:\preavis\bugs\v.10\dumbEsriPublisher. Log snippet:

Version mismatch due to the branch to 4.5.11. Should be fixed now.

This is still broken for my generic ESRI test case, which is the data that I use for the training class, using the following roll:

• Partner platform build: Build 3437 @ 2012-03-16 16:08:34 (partner/releases/4.5.11)
• Esri, 4.5.11, build 8716, 2012-02-01 12:39:31 (modules/releases/4.5.11/Esri)
• EsriTranslator, 4.5.11, build 8717, 2012-02-01 12:40:35 (modules/releases/4.5.11/EsriTranslator)

The error still looks like errors in posts above:

groovy.lang.GroovyRuntimeException: Could not find matching constructor for: com.partnersoft.modules.esri.ArcInfoFrontend(com.partnersoft.system.Module, com.partnersoft.maps.translator.DynamicMapTranslator, com.partnersoft.data.Naming)
 at groovy.lang

So, I set up a brand new 4.5.11 install (which yielded this minor error: [#2177], and still got the same error. I think we are narrowing the problem down.

Checked in my source data to EsriTroubleshooting module (resources/SmallMDB_SouthPlainsClassData.zip). You should see the problem immediately after setting up an EsriTranslator from 4.5.11.

So the EsriTranslator module has this error, where others such as FuturaTranslator,TelventTranslator, etc, don’t. A difference that I see is in the Esri.groovy file. For the EsriTranslator module, the mapsets/Esri/translator/frontends/Esri.groovy file looks like this:

import com.partnersoft.modules.esri.ArcInfoFrontend;

frontend = new ArcInfoFrontend(module, translator, settings);
frontend.translate();

In contrast, the same file in the TelventTranslator module looks like this:

import com.partnersoft.modules.esri.*;

import com.partnersoft.system.*;
import com.partnersoft.data.NameSet;
import com.partnersoft.data.ConversionLib;

    returnThing = new NameSet();
    reader = new BufferedReader(new StringReader(settings.get(settingsFileThing)));
    String currentLine = null;
    while ((currentLine = reader.readLine()) != null) {
      currentLine = currentLine.trim();
      if (currentLine != null) {
        returnThing.add(currentLine);
     }
  }
  reader.close();
  return returnThing;
}

includeTablesList = settingsCog.getStringAsLines("includeTables");
ignoreTablesList = settingsCog.getStringAsLines("ignoreTables");
rotationFieldsList = settingsCog.getStringAsLines("rotationFields");

includeTablesSet = new NameSet(includeTablesList);

if (SystemServices.environment().isWindows()) {
    database = new SqlDatabase();
    database.setType("Access");
    database.setPath(databasePath);
}
else {
    log.error("Sorry, can only translate Access geodatabases on Windows.");
    return;
}

// set up source coordinate system
sourceProjection = settings.get("sourceProjection").trim();
sourceUnits = settings.get("sourceUnits").trim();
log.info("sourceProjection is:"+sourceProjection+":");
if (!sourceProjection.equals("") && !sourceUnits.equals("")) {
    log.warn("If no sourceProjection, shouldn't see this.");
    translator.setSourceProjectionAndUnits(sourceProjection, sourceUnits);
}

// set up frontend
frontend = new ArcInfoFrontend();
if (setIncludeTables) frontend.setIncludeTables(setIncludeTables);
if (setIgnoreTables) frontend.setIgnoreTables(setIgnoreTables);
if (setDebugObjectIDs) frontend.setDebugObjectIDs(setDebugObjectIDs);

More version mismatch. The modules Thrane copied for the release branch are ancient at this point. I’m going to go ahead and merge in all the changes to date and then back out the SQL stuff, just like I did for the core platform.

This should be resolved. The shorter version of that script is the correct one; I moved all the tedious setting code into the Java part. Besides, having long scripts that are copied and maintained separately is a really bad idea.

Fixed in:

• EsriTranslator
• StarEnergyTranslator
• FuturaTranslator
• TelventTranslator

This might be solved. Further testing.

Calling this one fixed.
