PDS CD Volume Support on the Mac
On the Mac platform, NASAView crashes after selecting a label or image file located on a CD from one of the older PDS Volumes. The error message that appears is the following:
FATAL ERROR: MSG 0x003482ec [CAT 3/4 STD
33516]
Category: XVT release 3 assert (Signaled assert 4)
Function: XVT_app_create
File: /Users/build_user/builds/dsc_osx/svn/src/
ptk/mac/kfsys.c line: 411
Volume Sets that are known to cause this error are CDs of Magellan, Viking Orbiter, Voyager, and Galileo REDR images or labels. The work around is to copy the files from the CD to the local Mac machine running NASAView.
