Closing an Empty Results Table from within a Macro gives an error

[Dan McDonald]

I have encountered a problem trying to close an empty Results Table from
within a macro.

 

I have even used the macro recorder to record my manual steps.  When I play
back the recorded steps the program crashes with the error message:
"Unrecognized command: 0."  This is the same result I get when executing my
macro.

 

When I execute the steps manually using the ImageJ toolbar, the series of
commands work fine.  I have copied the recorded macro below.  The Results
Table is empty because a previously defined rectangular selection (not shown
below) did not include any particles.  The macro works fine when the Results
Table has content.  The code below doesn't make much sense as I have
stripped out all but the pertinent commands to demonstrate the problem.

 

The crash occurs upon execution of the run("Close") command.

 

run("Analyze Particles...", "size=0-Infinity circularity=0.00-1.00
show=Nothing display");

run("Clear Results");

run("Close");

run("Measure");

 

Any suggestions?

Hi Daniel,

no problem here (ImageJ 1.45f3, Mac OS X 10.4.11, Java 1.5.0_19).
I tried with both 8-bit and float images.

You could try to insert a 'wait(200)' command (200 millisec delay) to  
see whether it is a race condition.

Daniel ,

your Macro runs fine here with ImageJ 1.45e and same OS & Java as Michael's.

Hi Michael, Herbie,

Thanks for the quick response.

The problem occurs even in debug mode, while using one "step" at a time.  So
I don't believe it's a racing issue.

I am running ImageJ 1.45e under Ubuntu 10.10. (maverick); Kernel Linux
2.6.35-28-generic; GNOME 2.32.
Java 1.6.0_10 64bit
Intel i5 cpu and 6GB of ram.

Regards,

Dan
