This can be reproduced w/ ROOT 6.08.06 on x86_64-slc6-gcc62-opt under LCG_88 on lxplus.
Description
Dear ROOT authors,
While running an ATLAS software (in PyROOT) that performs a binary diff of ROOT files, we noticed warnings similar to:
RuntimeWarning: creating executor for unknown type "Long64_t*"
|
RuntimeWarning: creating executor for unknown type "unsigned char*"
|
RuntimeWarning: creating executor for unknown type "ULong64_t*"
|
RuntimeWarning: creating executor for unknown type "signed char*"
|
The issue can be reproduced w/:
//test.h
|
unsigned char *create_char()
|
{
|
unsigned char *c = new unsigned char[1];
|
c[0]=3;
|
return c;
|
}
|
$ python -i
|
>>> import ROOT
|
>>> ROOT.gROOT.LoadMacro("test.h")
|
>>> a = ROOT.create_char()
|
__main__:1: RuntimeWarning: creating executor for unknown type "unsigned char*"
|
I see similar issues are discussed, for example at [1]. Is this something that needs to be fixed on the ROOT side or on our side?
Best,
Serhan
