Listed below are a number of common issues users face with the various parts of
|
|
the C++ API.

C++ Extensions
|
|
==============
|
|
|
|
Undefined symbol errors from PyTorch/ATen
|
|
*****************************************
|
|
|
|
**Problem**: You import your extension and get an ``ImportError`` stating that
|
|
some C++ symbol from PyTorch or ATen is undefined. For example::
|
|
|
|
>>> import extension
|
|
Traceback (most recent call last):
|
|
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
|
|
ImportError: /home/user/.pyenv/versions/3.7.1/lib/python3.7/site-packages/extension.cpython-37m-x86_64-linux-gnu.so: undefined symbol: _ZN2at19UndefinedTensorImpl10_singletonE
|
|
|
|
**Fix**: The fix is to ``import torch`` before you import your extension. This will make
|
|
the symbols from the PyTorch dynamic (shared) library that your extension
|
|
depends on available, allowing them to be resolved once you import your extension.

|
I created a tensor using a function from ``at::`` and get errors
|
|
****************************************************************
|
|
|
|
**Problem**: You created a tensor using e.g. ``at::ones`` or ``at::randn`` or
|
|
any other tensor factory from the ``at::`` namespace and are getting errors.
|
|
|
|
**Fix**: Replace ``at::`` with ``torch::`` for factory function calls. You
|
|
should never use factory functions from the ``at::`` namespace, as they will
|
|
create tensors. The corresponding ``torch::`` functions will create variables,
|
|
and you should only ever deal with variables in your code.
