This one is a mistake caused by using the Viewer when the log file was still being written to.

I am logging a CAPE-OPEN VB6 UO in ProSim Plus 3.0.2.18. The Validate method is faced with a CalcEquilibrium that does not work, at least it is what I presume. When running the Validate without COLTT (1.07 and 1.08.02 have strictly the same behavior), I get an error message as in Screenshots_woCOLTT.doc, it says “la valeur de la propriété est inconnue”, something like the property value is unknown. With COLTT enabled on the UO, I get an error message as in Screenshots_withCOLTT.doc : “La méthode ~ de l’objet ~ a échoué” which may be translated as “the method of object ~ has failed”.

ProSim SA has told me that CalcEquilibrium is supposed to give an ECapeUnknown error code. The error is prompted by a GetProp made by the thermo server on the MO while the MO is not yet prepared to receive such calls since the MO is calculated once the UO represented the process feed has been calculated. The ECapeUnknown error code is consistent with the message displayed without COLTT “the value of the property is unknown”. So the point may be to investigate if and why ECapeUnknown does not appear as the error code displayed by CapeEquilibrium.

The message displayed by ProSIm Plus without COLTT is not that explicit for sure but it seems wrong to me for COLTT to somehow change the message displayed.

Since the logs are so similar I think the debug messages are harmless. I agree they shouldn't be there but I think they are a consequence of you running a debug build. I think the first step is to re-run the test with a release build of 1.08.2 (or .3?) and to compare with 1.07 again.

Michael,

I have not made any calculations in both examples. I just selected the Property Package and stopped there. Things may be fine with calculations afterwards but my point is that debug assertion failed messages should not pop up. By clicking on Ignore at each debug assertion failed message I am moving on. There is no such message with COLTT 1.07 enabled on COMThermo Thermo System.

Best regards

Michael,

Yes, you are right, it is a debug build.

Best Regards

The two logs look very similar, so it seems that the calculations proceed in both examples. Is that correct? Are you continuing through the debug messages?

Ahsan, do you know whether 1.08.2 is a debug build or a release build? Presumably 1.07 is a release build?

Hi,

I get « Debug Assertion Failed » messages while making the selection of a COMThermo PP in Simulis Thermodynamics. This occurs with COLTT 1.08.02 while it does not occur with COLTT v1.07. You will find attached a Word document made of screen copies of the scenario performed as well as the log files obtained both with 1.07 and 1.08.02.

I have given number 09-016 to this issue.

Best regards

Michel
