Helllo ccc-gistemp list,

My name is Filipe Fernandes and I'm one of the Google Summer of Code
students working under the mentor-ship of the CCC,

I would like to call users to test a windows executable version of
ccc-gistemp generated with py2exe. It is available for download here:

http://code.google.com/p/ccc-gistemp/downloads/detail?name=ccc-gistemp-exe.zip

If you wish to recreate the executable go to my branch:

http://code.google.com/p/ccc-gistemp/source/browse/#svn/branches/2011-05-18/gsoc

download the source and type: "python setup_exe.py py2exe" under a
windows machine with py2exe installed.

A example result can be visualized here:

goo.gl/anwVq

Thanks for helping, Filipe.

I'd just like to add that since I don't have a windows machine, I'd
especially appreciate the efforts of anyone who steps forward to test
out Filipe's windows executable.

Going forward, I'm quite excited by the prospect of a packaged version
of ccc-gistemp that you can just download and run (later, Filips will
be making a GUI and making ccc-gistemp go faster, both of which will
help accessibility enormously).

Running this now. It Just Works (at least, so far). Awesome.

I think that some future version should:
- come with all the source code, allowing users to modify it, in such
a way that run.exe will use the modified code.
- come with some minimal set of input data.

But this is already quite a big step forward in accessibility for ccc-gistemp.

Hi

I am glad that we are making progress with GSOC.
 
I tried it on Windows XP Professional.

I have following suggestions:

1. It will be nice if we include a readme.txt file in the zip telling what all is expected to happen and how much time it might take when we run this.

2. Display is bit confusing for me like "Load GHCN Record" means I need to load something ? If the prohramming is loading you might want to say "Loading GHCN Record"

3. For me the program stopped at 1 USHCN records have no GHCN counterpart. I was confused if the program is hanging or terminated. And where to look for the results. This all might be touched upon in the readme.txt file.

I hope this helps.

Regards,

Vijay

Yes, that is missing. I'm adding it to the package right now.

Humm, those are the same message for the "standard' ccc-gistemp.
However, I prefer "loading" to "load" as well.

It is just a really long step, the program probably did not hang-up on
you. I'll see if I can add a "status bar" to show that.

Yes, thanks.

1) Minimum set of input data: Yes, definitely!

2) Source code: I do not know, for users that will change the source
code a direct call "python tool/run.py" is much easier than the py2exe
binary.

Yes. However, if you wish to use the source code of ccc-gistemp go for
the stable version at:

http://code.google.com/p/ccc-gistemp/downloads/detail?name=ccc-gistemp-0.6.1.tar.gz

I ran it on Windows 7.

Last bit of output was:
... running vischeck
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "run.py", line 274, in <module>
File "run.py", line 259, in main
File "run.py", line 116, in vischeck
File "tool\vischeck.pyo", line 361, in chartit
File "tool\vischeck.pyo", line 132, in asgooglechartURL
ValueError: min() arg is an empty sequence

Thanks for testing, nice to know that ir runs on W7.

That is a known error. The latest data downloaded is
"9641C_201106_F52.avg.gz" and according to David:

"The output file is empty, probably because the input files have land
data up to 2011-05 and ocean data up to 2011-04. In this case
ccc-gistemp refuses to produce the usual output file, which causes
vischeck to complain. There are other output files in the result/
directory which have reasonable data in them (eg, the land-only and
ocean-only results)."

For a full run use the data from 2011-02-22:

http://ccc-gistemp.googlecode.com/files/ccc-gistemp-input-20110222.zip

Thanks again for testing, Filipe.

Just an FYI. I used this data and it completed the run.

Result: http://goo.gl/MKqcz

You're welcome Filipe, hope you're enjoying your GSoC.
