Consistency error: V6 don't load board anymore

e14 Contributor
e14 Contributor over 14 years ago

Hello,

 

yesterday evening I closed a design with no errors.

This morning EAGLE v6 told me there are consistency errors.

 

To be sure I closed again the project and reopened.

Now the schematic is loaded but when I switch to brd I get a blank page

with the following error:

 

Loading D:/path-to-board.brd ...

 

Error:

 

line 434, column 286: Unexpected ''.

 

 

The line 434 of brd file contains this:

 

"The design rule parameters in this DRU file have been set to the

minimum values compatible with our STANDARD pool service. The options

Shapes and Misc are not relevant. Values for Roundness (Shapes) are not

critical and can be set as you require. You can set the values for

covered or  tented  via holes under Masks (Limit)."

 

The column 286 is around this point:

 

"or  tented ", 286 is the (non visible) char between the space and t of

tented.

The hex code of that char is 0x1C.

 

Removing that char (and 0x1D after final d) leads to load the board

again (even with the consistency errors...).

    Marco,

     

    I have seen that problem as well, when I adapted the ulp_to_dsn ULP for

    V6. The non-visible char is probably an MSword "quote", not compatible

    with the ASCII set used. I have edited all the Eurocircuits DRU files

    (where it comes from), but really Eurocircuits should fix its DRU files.

    Eagle V5 did not parse text so accurate, and rolled over it.
