summarize function complains about missing variables in exodus class

[adigc]

Hello all

I am compiling and using version : v2024-11-07
and using the python wrappers to create an exodus file.

I have the following python script doing the same

#!/usr/bin/env python3
import sys
import exodus

ex_pars = exodus.ex_init_params(num_dim=2, num_nodes=9,num_elem=4, num_elem_blk=1, num_assembly=0)
file = exodus.exodus("newexodusfile.e", mode='w+', title=title, array_type='numpy', init_params=ex_pars)
file.summarize()
file.close()

The above script produces the follwing error :

You are using exodus.py v 1.21.3 (seacas-py3), a python wrapper of some of the exodus library.

Opening exodus file: newexodusfile.e

  ids = self.np.array(ids)

    self.num_blob(), num_blob_vars))
  File "/home/user/seacas/2024-11-07/lib/exodus.py", line 2559, in num_blob
    return self.numBlob.value

I had a look at the exodus3.py and the member variable numBlob is never initialized.

NOTE: Explicitly initializing this variable in the constructor of installed exodus3.py solved the issue. But this should be solved in the repository aswell.
