Errors when converting VSD to different formats

Fp2v5an8 · May 27, 2015, 4:53am

Hey there,

I encountered some more issues with Aspose Diagram. This time, the version is 5.3.0.

Code with line numbers:

43: Diagram diagram = new Diagram("Input.vsd");

44: diagram.Save("Result.PNG", SaveFileFormat.PNG); // IndexOutOfRangeException

45: diagram.Save("Result.PDF", SaveFileFormat.PDF); // IndexOutOfRangeException

46: diagram.Save("Result.HTML", SaveFileFormat.HTML); // IndexOutOfRangeException

47: diagram.Save("Result.VDX", SaveFileFormat.VDX); // No error, but looks weird

48: diagram.Save("Result.VSX", SaveFileFormat.VSX); // No error, but looks weird

Detailed Error Messages (German):

I have attached the input file and all "exported" files (some of them are 0 bytes long).

Please have a look at this and get back to me.

Hi Tim,

Thank you for contacting support. We have tested your sample Visio diagram against the latest build of Aspose.Diagram for .NET 5.3.0. We’re sorry to share with you, we could not reproduce the error messages said while saving to PNG, PDF and HTML file formats. Please recheck the Aspose.Diagram library version. Otherwise, please send us your system environment details e.g.

Operating System name, edition and 32 & 64 bit (e.g. Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit)
Eclipse/Netbeans version, edition and other details?
Local language and settings etc?
JDK version of your application project?
Any other information that you think is necessary.

It’ll help us to be more specific. We’ll take a closer look and reply you accordingly.

Fp2v5an8:

48: diagram.Save(“Result.VSX”, SaveFileFormat.VSX); // No error, but looks weird

The resultant VSX format is the Visio stencil XML. We normally use these files as repository of the various shapes. Aspose.Diagram APIs export it as a stencil file as the Microsoft Office Visio do. We have attached all the resultant files to this reply for your kind reference.

Fp2v5an8:

47: diagram.Save(“Result.VDX”, SaveFileFormat.VDX); // No error, but looks weird

We managed to replicate the problems as follows:

File Name: Input.vsd

DIAGRAMNET-50447 - VSD to VDX conversion, shapes are missing from the diagram

DIAGRAMNET-50448 - VSD to VDX conversion, dynamic connector is not being connected properly

Your post has also been linked to these issues. We’ll keep you informed regarding any available updates. We’re sorry for the inconvenience caused.

Hi Tim,

Thank you for being patient. We have a good news for you that the issue id DIAGRAMNET-50447 has now been resolved. If there is no issue in the QA phase, then this fix will be included in the next version of Aspose.Diagram for .NET 5.4.0. We’ll inform you via this forum thread as soon as the new release is published.

Fp2v5an8 · June 15, 2015, 4:22am

Operating System name, edition and 32 & 64 bit (e.g. Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit)

Window 8.1 Enterprise 64 bit

Eclipse/Netbeans version, edition and other details?

Visual Studio 2012 Update 4

Local language and settings etc?

Local language is German.

No special settings were applied to the project.

JDK version of your application project?

Microsoft .NET 4.0

Any other information that you think is necessary

Nothing.

I've attached a sample project which can be run in an IIS server. When testing, i could reproduce the IndexOutOfRangeException with different VSD files.

The problem does not occur when using the older version 5.1.0.

Please have another look at this.

imran.rafique · June 15, 2015, 2:59pm

Hi Tim,

Thank you for providing us the environment details. We have tested your sample project under the Windows 8.1 Professional version and could not reproduce the error messages said. We’re preparing the exact environment to test it further in detail and get back to you in the current week. Meanwhile, please test your sample project in any other machine and let us know how it goes on your side.

Fp2v5an8 · June 25, 2015, 6:00am

The problem occurs on multiple computers in our company. All of them have the same hardware and the same operating system.

To test this further, I’ve written some code which reads multiple vss files and exports all master shapes to png. I’ve noticed that some shapes are causing the IndexOutOfRangeException while others are not. Upon closer inspection, it seems that shapes with many levels (shapes that are grouped multiple times) cause this error on my end.

I’ve tried converting the file attached to this post in the sample project I sent you a few days ago and were able to display the error again. Please have a closer look at the “GE MacLab” Master Shape.

It would be great if you could try to replicate this again on your end.

Greetings

Tim

Fp2v5an8 · June 30, 2015, 7:06am

Hey there,

thanks for the update and the quick fix. Could you send me a copy of the 5.4.0 dll? Development on my project was put on hold since the mentioned bugs prevent us from working. I’d like to continue working since we have a few project milestones coming up and I’d rather not postpone those.

Greetings

Tim
