  • Max on linux

    From Rick Smith@1:340/202.1 to All on Fri Nov 13 10:57:44 2020
    Greetings All!


    Has anyone successfully got maximus on linux? We have tried most 32 and 64 bit versions tried solving dependincy complaints and still cannot get make max or make install to complete...

    The build worked with a few modifications, but I haven't tested if it works. I will push it to github tomorrow.

    $ make max
    cd slib && /usr/bin/make; cd ..; cd unix && /usr/bin/make; cd ..;
    cd msgapi && /usr/bin/make; cd ..; cd mex && /usr/bin/make; cd ..;
    cd prot && /usr/bin/make; cd ..; cd comdll && /usr/bin/make; cd ..; make[1]: Entering directory '/tmp/maximus/slib' make[1]: Nothing to be done for 'top'. make[1]: Leaving directory
    '/tmp/maximus/slib' make[1]: Entering directory
    '/tmp/maximus/unix' make[1]: Nothing to be done for 'top'. make[1]: Leaving directory '/tmp/maximus/unix' make[1]: Entering directory '/tmp/maximus/msgapi' make[1]: Nothing to be done for 'top'. make[1]: Leaving directory '/tmp/maximus/msgapi' make[1]: Entering directory '/tmp/maximus/mex' make[1]: Nothing to be done for 'top'. make[1]:
    Leaving directory '/tmp/maximus/mex' make[1]: Entering directory '/tmp/maximus/prot' make[1]: Nothing to be done for 'top'. make[1]:
    Nice work... I look forward to giving it a try.... I will look for it tomorrow then..

    Thanks again

    this does compile on my machine:

    git clone -b max https://github.com/fidosoft/maximus
    cd maximus
    ../configure
    make max

    Thanks for doing that... yeah it built and installed but segfault everywhere.. oh well it was worth the try... segfault probably take forever to diagnose...
