Problem details

Observed symptom
ValueError at convert.
Context
Product: Core ML Tools (coremltools) Component: flexible input shapes Operation: ct.convert with ct.RangeDim() without upper_bound for mlprogram Affected versions: unknown Environment: unknown Exception: ValueError Packages: coremltools main at pinned SHA Trigger: RangeDim(upper_bound=-1) default (unbounded) with mlprogram.
Environment
Unknown · not established
Symptom signature
Literal error text
For mlprogram, inputs with infinite upper_bound is not allowed. Please set upper_bound to a positive value in "RangeDim()" for the "inputs" param in ct.convert().
