pull request - fable
by Nic Gould 15 May '23

15 May '23

Hi All, Sorry for the intrusion, the Github page suggests contacting the devs on the mailing list before making a pull request. I ran into some minor issues building fable and was wondering if it's worth submitting a pull request. - invalid pre-processor directive (fixed upstream at boost https://github.com/boostorg/thread/issues/364) - Invalid python API call ( fixed upstream at boost here https://github.com/boostorg/python/pull/344) - Need to install python.h : This one seems tricky as it varies between platforms and it's probably not a 'you problem'. Maybe add a line to the setup documentation. Interestingly it needs to be installed on the host machine, not in the conda venv. Kind regards Nic Gould

Conda dropping Python 3.7 real soon now
by Winter, Graeme (DLSLtd,RAL,LSCI) 16 Sep '22

16 Sep '22

Hi All, Possibly of relevance herein - https://conda-forge.org/docs/user/announcements.html#dropping-python-3-7 "Conda-Forge has been providing support for Python 3.7 for 4 years now. Increasingly projects are moving off it (particularly in the PyData community). With Python 3.11’s release coming around the corner (October 3rd), conda-forge plans to drop Python 3.7 support when Python 3.11 comes out. This will lighten the load on conda-forge infrastructure and make room for the new versions the community would like to support.” ISTR PHENIX is pinned on 3.7 right now because of some non-3.8 compatible code?

Next conda version?
by Luc Bourhis 13 Sep '22

13 Sep '22

Hi, I have just fixed a bug introduced a few years ago that broke some of our code at Bruker. We use conda to add the cctbx to our environment, hence my question: when can the next version be expected on conda-force including that fix? No pressure! I would like to know to plan ahead. Thanks! Best wishes, Luc https://github.com/cctbx/cctbx_project/commit/085f6d8cf57b91dce3a695ebbfbcf… <https://github.com/cctbx/cctbx_project/commit/085f6d8cf57b91dce3a695ebbfbcf…>

boost python exports
by David Waterman 02 Mar '22

02 Mar '22

Hi folks, I'm trying to create a boost python class that works with either vec3 or mat3 arrays (and I only need those two types). I made a templated class and then exported it twice with different names, for the vec3 and mat3 versions. For example, for mat3: class_<ReconstituteDerivatives< mat3<double> > >("ReconstituteDerivativesMat3", no_init) .def("get_data", &ReconstituteDerivatives< mat3<double> >::get_data) .def("get_indices", &ReconstituteDerivatives< std::size_t >::get_indices); I can create one of these objects from Python >>> foo <dials_refinement_helpers_ext.ReconstituteDerivativesMat3 object at 0x7f3ffa421ac0> but the accessors are not exported properly: >>> foo.get_data() Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> TypeError: No to_python (by-value) converter found for C++ type: scitbx::af::shared<scitbx::mat3<double> > I expected a scitbx_array_family_flex_ext.mat3_double here >>> foo.get_indices() Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> Boost.Python.ArgumentError: Python argument types in ReconstituteDerivativesMat3.get_indices(ReconstituteDerivativesMat3) did not match C++ signature: get_indices(dials::refinement::ReconstituteDerivatives<unsigned long> {lvalue}) and I expected a scitbx_array_family_flex_ext.size_t here. Is it likely there is something simple I am missing, like a #include? I do include flex_wrapper.h. Or perhaps I am just doing something wrong with templated classes and boost python. Looking at other code isn't helping to reveal the mysteries to me yet. Cheers -- David

DYLD_FALLBACK_LIBRARY_PATH
by Winter, Graeme (DLSLtd,RAL,LSCI) 04 Jan '22

04 Jan '22

Hi Folks, By default cctbx dispatchers on macOS clobber DYLD_FALLBACK_LIBRARY_PATH with some stuff which means that from napari import viewer fails with a huge stack trace ending in OSError: dlopen(libobjc.dylib, 6): image not found If I comment out the clobbering in the dispatcher then everything works fine so I am fairly sure this is the problem Some questions - - why do we do this? - is there a way I can make a dispatcher not to this? or maybe leave the system DYLD… as it was and _append_ to rather than prepend? Seems like a thing I am surprised I have not broken a toe on before now Thanks Graeme -- This e-mail and any attachments may contain confidential, copyright and or privileged material, and are for the use of the intended addressee only.

Re: [cctbxbb] [git/cctbx_project] master: Reduce2: place NH3 only at residue with resseq 1. (765881e87b)
by Pavel Afonine 10 Nov '21

10 Nov '21

What if chain starts with a number different than 1 (people tend to number chain residues in many different ways, even using negative numbers, and they claim they have valid reasons to do so)? iotbx.pdb.hierarchy has a clear definition of the chain. So I'd suggest adding NH3 to the fist residue of the chain, no matter what that residue number is.

accessing attributes of PHIL parameters
by Robert Oeffner 15 Oct '21

15 Oct '21

Hi, Most likely a trivial question but if I have a PHIL object such as one based on the string arrayinfo_phil_str = """ selected_info { span = True .type = bool .short_caption = "Span" minmax_data = True .type = bool .short_caption = "min,max data" } """ I can then get the PHIL definitions span and minmax_data as python values like: from libtbx.phil import parse parse(arrayinfo_phil_str).extract().selected_info.span parse(arrayinfo_phil_str).extract().selected_info.minmax_data But how do I access the values of the short_caption attribute of these definitions? Does that make sense or have not understood correctly how PHIL works? Thanks, Rob -- This email has been checked for viruses by AVG. https://www.avg.com

DIALS releases in PHENIX

I note the shift from 2.2 to 3.2 would give a significant change in behaviour to the end user (who ultimately we may end up having to help with debugging) If we knew better why these changes were coming through, maybe we could help to keep PHENIX up to date? I would draw comparisons with CCP4 however they have been stuck in 2.2-series forever now as they’re still not able to support Python3 - will be in CCP4 8.x which will be ready any time now. I only mention this as it would be really good to start eliminating obsolete versions from distribution as “please go to dials.github.io and install a non-ancient version” is annoying advice to an end user with a fresh install of PHENIX or CCP4.

Is there a schedule for the python3 migration or can cctbx.python already be built to be/use a python3 interpreter?
by Jan M. Simons 12 Jul '21

12 Jul '21

Cheers, I'm getting more and more concerned with the state of cctbx and the impending removal of python2 from quite a lot of major linux distributions in the near future. So far I have not managed to find documentation on how to build the cctbx to then use a python3 interpreter for the cctbx.python script, but I would really like to have this, as I'd have to check/port my code that's using cctbx modules (mostly smtbx and xrax) to python3 as well, so that it does not get obsoleted. So is it possible to build cctbx as a python3 module by now and if so how would one be able to do this? Thanks for your support Jan

WSL2 (was: Windows icc builds)
by Kay Diederichs 27 May '21

27 May '21

Hi Graeme, I have no solution for this problem but I want to bring up the fact that WSL2 is very easy to install on current Windows10, and lets one run the Linux binaries (including graphics if you install MobaXterm which has an Xserver) quite efficiently. I have not run into a single problem when trying WSL2 with XDS and XDSGUI; my writeup is at https://strucbio.biologie.uni-konstanz.de/xdswiki/index.php/Installation#WS… . I think those who struggle with developing for Windows, including you, the Phenix team and the CCP4 team, might be able to save a lot of time/effort (and those who just use Windows would benefit in the long run by getting used to a Linux environment). Microsoft announced WSLg (the g stands for graphics) which provides an Xserver, but this currently requires Windows-Build 21362+ (Windows Insider Program). Give it a try!

Windows icc builds

HI Folks Following from a DIALS issue about it being slow on Windows https://github.com/dials/dials/issues/1666 I have fallen into a rabbit hole and I am trying to build DIALS (and hence cctbx) on Windows with the intel compilers from oneAPI - however I keep stumbling over linking errors with e.g. undefined symbol __floor Should I abandon hope or has someone done this? I know this is not a new path to tread as windows_icc was a defined combination on the SConscripts I had had to hack some bits around a little presumably to accommodate 2021 versions of icc compilers, but this felt like I was going down a bad path Would welcome input from anyone who can help - currently windows DIALS is a pretty poor relation It is noteworthy however that parallel operation does now appear to work on Windows with easy mp :-) In other news - has anyone considered adding clang support with clang coming from conda? Could make for more consistency in the builds… I had a look at how one may go about doing this but rapidly found myself in SCons hell.

Building with system compilers
by Winter, Graeme (DLSLtd,RAL,LSCI) 04 May '21

Hi Folks Recent macOS / xcode update broke the version of clang in conda so I can no longer build (SCons decides that the compilers don’t support C++11) I can build just fine, and everything works and all the tests pass However if I try and recompile anything SCons swears at me and dies as it decides that the perfectly valid C++11 compilers I have don’t compile C++11 because … some reason which makes no sense to me. Here is content of config.log Grey-Area build :( $ cat config.log file /Users/graeme/git/dials/modules/cctbx_project/libtbx/SConscript,line 865: Configure(confdir = .sconf_temp) scons: Configure: ".sconf_temp/conftest_171626668f451c9275a8effd06a8fea3_0.cpp" is up to date. scons: Configure: The original builder output was: |.sconf_temp/conftest_171626668f451c9275a8effd06a8fea3_0.cpp <- | |#include <iostream> | |int main() { | | std::cout << "{"; | | #ifndef __llvm__ | | #define __llvm__ "" | | #endif | | std::cout << "\"llvm\":" << __llvm__ << ", "; | | #ifndef __clang__ | | #define __clang__ "" | | #endif | | std::cout << "\"clang\":" << __clang__ << ", "; | | #ifndef __clang_major__ | | #define __clang_major__ "" | | #endif | | std::cout << "\"clang_major\":" << __clang_major__ << ", "; | | #ifndef __clang_minor__ | | #define __clang_minor__ "" | | #endif | | std::cout << "\"clang_minor\":" << __clang_minor__ << ", "; | | #ifndef __clang_patchlevel__ | | #define __clang_patchlevel__ "" | | #endif | | std::cout << "\"clang_patchlevel\":" << __clang_patchlevel__ << ", "; | | #ifndef __GNUC__ | | #define __GNUC__ "" | | #endif | | std::cout << "\"GNUC\":" << __GNUC__ << ", "; | | #ifndef __GNUC_MINOR__ | | #define __GNUC_MINOR__ "" | | #endif | | std::cout << "\"GNUC_MINOR\":" << __GNUC_MINOR__ << ", "; | | #ifndef __GNUC_PATCHLEVEL__ | | #define __GNUC_PATCHLEVEL__ "" | | #endif | | std::cout << "\"GNUC_PATCHLEVEL\":" << __GNUC_PATCHLEVEL__ << ", "; | | #ifndef __clang_version__ | | #define __clang_version__ "" | | #endif | | std::cout << "\"clang_version\": \"" << __clang_version__ << "\", "; | | #ifndef __VERSION__ | | #define __VERSION__ "" | | #endif | | std::cout << "\"VERSION\": \"" << __VERSION__ << "\", "; | | std::cout << "}"; | | return 0; | |} | scons: Configure: ".sconf_temp/conftest_171626668f451c9275a8effd06a8fea3_0.o" is up to date. scons: Configure: The original builder output was: |/usr/bin/c++ -o .sconf_temp/conftest_171626668f451c9275a8effd06a8fea3_0.o -c .sconf_temp/conftest_171626668f451c9275a8effd06a8fea3_0.cpp | scons: Configure: ".sconf_temp/conftest_171626668f451c9275a8effd06a8fea3_0_79477a053ab4616bb93a6d1a8e51fb1f" is up to date. scons: Configure: The original builder output was: |/usr/bin/c++ -o .sconf_temp/conftest_171626668f451c9275a8effd06a8fea3_0_79477a053ab4616bb93a6d1a8e51fb1f .sconf_temp/conftest_171626668f451c9275a8effd06a8fea3_0.o | scons: Configure: ".sconf_temp/conftest_171626668f451c9275a8effd06a8fea3_0_79477a053ab4616bb93a6d1a8e51fb1f.out" is up to date. scons: Configure: The original builder output was: |.sconf_temp/conftest_171626668f451c9275a8effd06a8fea3_0_79477a053ab4616bb93a6d1a8e51fb1f > .sconf_temp/conftest_171626668f451c9275a8effd06a8fea3_0_79477a053ab4616bb93a6d1a8e51fb1f.out | file /Users/graeme/git/dials/modules/cctbx_project/libtbx/SConscript,line 1143: Configure(confdir = .sconf_temp) scons: Configure: ".sconf_temp/conftest_e73942b1e04111dec1918a18e43ee693_0.cpp" is up to date. scons: Configure: The original builder output was: |.sconf_temp/conftest_e73942b1e04111dec1918a18e43ee693_0.cpp <- | |#include <iostream> | |#include <vector> | |#include <array> | |#include <utility> | |std::vector<int> func(std::vector<int> && in) {std::vector<int> r = std::move(in); return r;} | |int main() {std::vector<int> x(9); for(auto & i : x) {i=7; std::cout << i << std::endl;} | | x = func(std::vector<int>(2)); return 0;} | | | scons: Configure: ".sconf_temp/conftest_e73942b1e04111dec1918a18e43ee693_0.o" is up to date. scons: Configure: The original builder output was: |/usr/bin/c++ -o .sconf_temp/conftest_e73942b1e04111dec1918a18e43ee693_0.o -c -std=c++11 -stdlib=libc++ -mmacosx-version-min=10.9 -I/Users/graeme/git/dials/conda_base/include -I/Users/graeme/git/dials/modules -I/Users/graeme/git/dials/modules/cctbx_project -Iannlib_adaptbx/include -I/Users/graeme/git/dials/modules/annlib_adaptbx/include -I/Users/graeme/git/dials/modules/cctbx_project/annlib_adaptbx/include .sconf_temp/conftest_e73942b1e04111dec1918a18e43ee693_0.cpp | /usr/bin/c++ -o .sconf_temp/conftest_e73942b1e04111dec1918a18e43ee693_0_3b63d4473a8f41665bd62af890bf3763 -w -stdlib=libc++ -mmacosx-version-min=10.9 -std=c++11 -stdlib=libc++ -mmacosx-version-min=10.9 .sconf_temp/conftest_e73942b1e04111dec1918a18e43ee693_0.o -L/Users/graeme/git/dials/conda_base/lib -Llib -L/Users/graeme/git/dials/modules/lib -L/Users/graeme/git/dials/modules/cctbx_project/lib clang: error: no such file or directory: '.sconf_temp/conftest_e73942b1e04111dec1918a18e43ee693_0.o' clang: error: no input files Key point is this: I can blow away the build directory and it all compiles correctly, but if I touch a file and type make I get build failures as so Has anyone a clue about this?

Question/a possible typo in sampling backrub and side chain conformations in mmtbx
by Swati Jain 22 Apr '21

22 Apr '21

Hi, Not sure if this message was posted earlier or not, that is why I am reposting it. I had a couple of questions about sampling backrub and sidechains using the building or refinement modules in cctbx_project/mmtbx. 1) In the file: mmtbx.building.alternate_conformations.conformer_generation.py In the function def __call__: the if statements for checking whether the sampled side chain conformation is a rotamer outlier or not, the check in the if statement is for "selfUTLIER". Also in the function *set_up_backrub*(self): the atom "O" for the previous residue is not included in the backrun motion, as a result this atom is not moved when the backrub is implemented. I was just wondering if this is a mistake (possibly all instances of "O" being replaced by "self" which would explain both these things, and some other instances throughout the file), or is this code old and not used anymore? 2) When trying to run fit_residues.py and tst_fit_residues* scripts in mmtbx.refinement.real_space, I encountered errors mainly related to chem_data/rotamer_chi_angles/ not being present. Looks like this data is not distributed with cctbx. Is this correct, or maybe there is some other known issue ? I look forward to hearing from you. Thanks, Swati

MTZ object creation bug or feature?
by Robert Oeffner 30 Mar '21

30 Mar '21

I wonder if anyone has noticed the behaviour that the creation of columns in an mtz object seems to suffer from a problem. The script below creates an mtz object from three miller arrays of intensities, amplitudes and anomalous differences together with their sigmas on 5 reflections. The intention is that the mtz object should also consist of three pairs of columns ( I,SIGI and F,SIGF and DANO,SIGDANO). However the script shows that if the miller array with anomalous differences is added as the last miller array then the resulting mtz object is messed up: It has grouped F,SIGF and DANO,SIGDANO together as 10 reflections instead of just 5. Only if the miller array with anomalous differences is added as the second miller array after the intensities does the resulting mtz object contain the three distinct pairs of columns I,SIGI and F,SIGF and DANO,SIGDANO as intended each with 5 reflections. from cctbx.xray import observation_types from cctbx.array_family import flex from cctbx import miller from cctbx import crystal xs = crystal.symmetry(unit_cell=(50,50,40, 90,90,120), space_group_symbol="P3 1") mi = flex.miller_index([(1,-2,3), (0,0,-3), (1, 2, 3), (0, 1, 2), (1, 0, 2)]) ma1 = miller.array( miller.set(xs, mi), flex.double( [ 11.2, 6.3, 26.1, 14.9, 2.4 ] ), sigmas=flex.double( [ 13.6, 6.3, 24.9, 6.2, 11.1 ] ) ) ma2 = miller.array( miller.set(xs, mi), flex.double( [ 8.2, 26.3, 2.1, 4.9, 32.4 ] ), sigmas=flex.double( [ 3.6, 76.3, 2.9, 61.2, 1.1 ] ) ) ma3 = miller.array( miller.set(xs, mi), flex.double( [ 8.2, 26.3, 2.1, 4.9, 32.4 ] ), sigmas=flex.double( [ 3.6, 76.3, 2.9, 61.2, 1.1 ] ) ) mtz1 = ma1.as_mtz_dataset(column_root_label = "I", column_types = "JQ") mtz1.add_miller_array(ma2, column_root_label = "F", column_types = "FQ") mtz1.add_miller_array(ma3, column_root_label = "DANO", column_types = "DQ") mtz1.mtz_object().as_miller_arrays() # unexpected F,SIGF,DANO,SIGDANO array looks messed up mtz2 = ma1.as_mtz_dataset(column_root_label = "I", column_types = "JQ") mtz2.add_miller_array(ma3, column_root_label = "DANO", column_types = "DQ") mtz2.add_miller_array(ma2, column_root_label = "F", column_types = "FQ") mtz2.mtz_object().as_miller_arrays() # looks correct Is this a bug, a well known feature or am I simply doing something wrong?

testing newer versions of boost
by Robert Oeffner 12 Feb '21

12 Feb '21

Hi, I'm testing newer versions of boost than 1.70 currently distributed with CCTBX. I can't remember if I have to do something special other than unpacking the zip file, say boost_1_74_0.zip, that I download from boost.org and put it into the modules directory for my cctbx build. But I get several errors during build like: C:\Users\Oeffner\OeffnerStuff\Work\PhenixVoyager\modules\boost\libs\filesystem\src\codecvt_error_category.cpp(71): error C2491: 'boost::filesystem::codecvt_error_category': definition of dllimport function not allowed I'm have tried with the VS2015, VS2017 and the VS2019 compiler and they all complain. So I'm wondering if there are some other magic invocations that have to be done before building with a new version of boost.

Find nearest orthonormal matrix
by Robert Oeffner 25 Jan '21

Does the CCTBX has a routine for that? I didn't find anything in the scitbx module. But I came across a procedure online here: http://people.csail.mit.edu/bkph/articles/Nearest_Orthonormal_Matrix.pdf If not already in the CCTBX I plan to include a pythonic version of it within the next few days.

(not really cctbx: PHENIX release bundle content: .o files)
by Winter, Graeme (DLSLtd,RAL,LSCI) 25 Jan '21

25 Jan '21

Hi All, Could not think of a better place to ask this question Installed a PHENIX update this morning and noticed it is quite a substantial download - hard to avoid, in this modern day. While unpacking I noticed it contained a lot of object files - totting it up seems to be ~ 450 MB of .o files which are probably not useful for the average end user. Just wondered, are these worth stripping out before making the release bundles? I note the same is true for DIALS so I am not claiming some moral high ground here & also https://github.com/dials/dials/discussions/1563 … looks like my colleagues decided to pick up on this & happened to agree Just thought worth asking Cheers Graeme -- This e-mail and any attachments may contain confidential, copyright and or privileged material, and are for the use of the intended addressee only.

Space-saving tips
by Tristan Croll 25 Jan '21

25 Jan '21

Hi all, Following on from Graeme's email about .o files, another way to quite dramatically reduce the size of the distribution (with little impact on code complexity or performance) would be to keep all the various text-based data files in .zip format. With modern Python fetching the data from these is little different from working with uncompressed files anyway (1-2 extra lines of code, generally negligible runtime cost). A couple of snippets as an example from ISOLDE (where I keep all MD ligand definition files in a .zip): To get a list of the file contents: def _ligand_db_from_zip(self, ligand_zip): from zipfile import ZipFile import os namelist = [] with ZipFile(ligand_zip) as zf: for fname in zf.namelist(): name, ext = os.path.splitext(fname) if ext.lower() == '.xml': namelist.append(name) return namelist To read a given file from the zip as needed: if ligand_db is not None: zip, namelist = ligand_db if name in namelist: from zipfile import ZipFile logger.info('Loading residue template for {} from internal database'.format(name)) with ZipFile(zip) as zf: with zf.open(name+'.xml') as xf: forcefield.loadFile(xf) Even just doing this for the CaBLAM contour data cuts about 160 MB off the size of the uncompressed distribution. Best regards, Tristan

Cleaning clutter / pre-commit hooks
by Winter, Graeme (DLSLtd,RAL,LSCI) 25 Jan '21

25 Jan '21

Greetings cctbxbb Was reminded a moment ago about clutter and pre-commit hooks and wondered if there was merit in revisiting this question for cctbx? Not suggesting that pre-commit hooks should be mandatory (though you can git commit -n even if they are) but thinking that it would be a useful way of avoiding doubling up on commits and “failed builds” due to clutter Welcome viewpoints If consensus is not against the use of pre-commit hooks we can try and adapt some from e.g. dials for use here but I would not bother with this if people prefer to manually remove clutter Cheers Graeme -- This e-mail and any attachments may contain confidential, copyright and or privileged material, and are for the use of the intended addressee only.
