Well unfortunatly i don't have any Perl skills, I remember editing many header
files .h and c files .c to add some libraries like #include because the
installation was prompting me errors.
I'm using gcc 4.3.1 20080507 on openSUSE 11.0.
I've attached the files you've requested.
But to retreive all of the output is a little bit tough, i'll restate some:
linux-2nqc:/usr/local/bin # ./gift-add-collection.pl /home/majid/Desktop/Logo
Parameterless "use IO" deprecated at
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.10.0/i586-linux-thread-multi/XML/Writer.pm line 16

Constant subroutine main::SEEK_CUR redefined at ./gift-add-collection.pl line 32
locale: cannot read character map directory `/usr/share/i18n/charmaps': No such
file or directory
I am assuming that the system is using US-ASCII as encoding.
Within the xml files generated, we will use UTF-8 as encoding method
File /root/.gift-add-collection could not be opened (No such file or
directory), so I won't use it
I will read the images in:
/home/majid/Desktop/Logo/
I will generate feature files which I put into:
/root/gift-indexing-data/Logo/
The index files will be stored in:
/root/gift-indexing-data/Logo/
The URLs I will generate will have the prefix:
file:/home/majid/Desktop/Logo/

Subject: Re: [help-GIFT] Using GIFT
Hi Majid,
I'm sorry to leave you hanging. Unfortunately I started having hard
drive trouble last week, and my drive has completely died now. I'm
hoping to reinstall the GIFT when I have a new drive, but
unfortunately it will be a while before I'm ready to start that
process.
At this point, I think the best suggestion I can give is to send
another request to the help-gift list. Include a complete copy of all
the output you get when you start up the GIFT server, and the file
"gift-config.mrml", for starters. If you know (or have time to learn)
a bit of Perl, you can read the "gift-add-collection.pl" file to try
to determine what's going on. Apparently the error occurs just after
the script prints "Copying /home/maj/gift-config.mrml to
/home/maj/gift-config.mrml-old", potentially on line 796 or 44(?).
Now that I'm thinking about it, it would probably be useful to include
a copy of the file "gift-add-collection.pl", just in case your copy is
slightly different from other people's.
I'm sorry I can't be more help; best wishes,
Niles

Hi, I remember having a similar problem--this is mentioned elsewhere
on the list, and I think the problem is with the add-collection
script. Unfortunately I don't remember how I resolved the issue or if
the solution is mentioned on the list. If I have some time tonight or
tomorrow, I'll look through my version of the script and see if I can
figure out what changes I made.
Just wanted to let you know that I'm not ignoring you though :)
best,
Niles

Hi, GIFT is said to be a great tool to find similar images.
After days of fighting I've been able to install GIFT 0.1.14 on Linux
openSUSE 11.0. But i don't know what to do with it !!!
I don't want to read and compare images from a database ( i will do it
later on ) but i need to do it from a specific folder.
in /usr/local/bin i've executed ./gift-add-collection.pl
/home/maj/Desktop/Logo/
then executed ./gift
The current configuration directory is: /home/maj
----------------------------------------
Opening port 12789

Waiting for connection...
A new folder was Logo_thumbnails but nothing inside it.
I've tried to repeat the operation but when i've launched the
./gift-add-collection.pl /home/maj/Desktop/Logo/
an error showed up:
PROGRESS: 99%
Copying /home/maj/gift-config.mrml to /home/maj/gift-config.mrml-old
XML::DOM::Attr=ARRAY(0x8aa482c)
Can't locate object method "getAttribute" via package "XML::DOM::Attr"
at ./gift-add-collection.pl line 796, line 44.
Is it normal to have such error? And how can I use GIFT in order to find
similar images ? Would you please give me some uselful tutorials ?!
NB: I'm new to Linux so please give me a clear explanation.
Thanks in advance,
