Yeah, I installed back on Feb 18th, and just did a "hg incoming". hg reports nothing has changed. That doesn't sound correct.
Actually, February 18 was the date of our last stable release. The next one is scheduled for tomorrow. --nate

That opening-the-entire-file inefficiency in our sam_to_bam.py was fixed quite some time ago (4/30/2010, in 3724:007f175c8b88). It has used getsize since then.

Both me and Ryan have this line of code, and I'm sure we've both pulled since April 2010.
It's really just intended to catch weird errors that don't throw an actual error (also, I think that if the sam file has no header, no info would be output into the bam file).
Nope - look at my example below - an invalid sam file still generates a non-empty BAM file. This happens because of the "-t" parameter: samtools takes the header information from another file and generates the BAM file before even reading the SAM file.
It seems somewhat more informative to tell the user the file is empty rather than just "successfully" output an empty file.
Depends on your definition of "informative" - in this case the error message was not so informative at all, to a point a traceback was needed...

Just another example why python's misleadingly simple idioms are quite dangerous in production code (couldn't help myself from teasing about python... sorry about that).
Seems like line 150 in "sam_to_bam.py" tries to read the entire BAM file into memory just to find out if it's empty or not...
As a stop gap solution with minimal changes, change line 150 from: if len( open( tmp_aligns_file_name ).read() ) == 0: to if len( open( tmp_aligns_file_name ).read(10) ) == 0:
Which will read up to the first 10 bytes (instead of the entire file).
A slightly better (but still wrong) solution is to simply check the file size, with: if os.path.getsize(tmp_aligns_file_name) == 0:
But it's still wrong because even an invalid sam file will create a non-empty BAM file (when using "samtools view -bt") - the BAM file will still contain the chromosome names and sizes.

So in short, this whole sam-to-bam wrapper tool is not suitable for large SAM files (if they don't fit entirely in memory), and not for error checking of invalid SAM files.

Ryan,
Since we're shooting in the dark here, best to try and understand what's the exception.
Add the following line to the beginning of "sam_to_bam.py": import traceback
and add the following line to "sam_to_bam.py" line 156 (before the call to "stop_err"): traceback.print_exc()
Hopefully this will print out which exception you're getting, and where is it thrown from.
