Re: [Getfem-users] Problem installing getfem toolbox for Matlab 7.1

[Arvind Ajoy]

Dear Yves,

Thank you for your input. Unfortunately, the problem remains
unresolved. Specifically, the problem seems to be a linker error with
mex, corresponding to largeArrayDims. Additionally,
http://www.mathworks.com/support/solutions/en/data/1-5C27B9/?solution=1-5C27B9
seems to mention that largeArrayDims is included only from Matlab7.3
upwards. Couls this be the source of the problem I am facing? If so,
is there a workaround?

Details are as below ....

Including in gfm_common.c,
typedef size_t    mwSize;
typedef size_t    mwIndex;

mex -largeArrayDims -output gf_matlab -g CDEBUGFLAGS="-O3" LD="g++" \
        -I. -I./.. -DMATLAB_RELEASE=14 \
        ./gfm_mex.c ./gfm_common.c ./../gfi_array.c \
        ../.libs/libgetfemint.a ../../../src/.libs/libgetfem.a  -lblas
-llapack   || (rm gf_matlab.mexa64; false)
./gfm_common.c: In function ‘mxarray_to_gfi_array’:

    mex: link of 'gf_matlab.mexa64' failed.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Including
typedef int mwSize;
typedef int mwIndex;
yields the same error. Tehre are however no warning messages as above.
