Compilation Errors

[suragnair]

Hi, I'm trying to install BDT on Linux. However, when trying to compile bigMat in BDT-0.1.4/build/linux/bigMat, I run into some linking issues. This arises when the following line in the BDT-0.1.4/build/linux/bigMat/Makefile is executed:

else \
                echo "Linux"; \
                $(CXX) $(CXXFLAGS) $(LDFLAGS) -o $@ $(OBJS) -lFreeze -lbdtCore -lbdtUtil -lBamtools -lz -llapack -lrefblas -lgfortran $(LIBS); \
        fi

The error trace is as below:

Hi, thanks for the info. Looks like the dependent libs have not been built. Did you build the whole BDT by
$ tar xfz v0.1.4.tar.gz
$ cd BDT-v0.1.4
$ make bdt_home={install_path}
This will build all dependencies and then bigMat, bdvd, bigKmeans etc.

Yes that is how I’m building it, but I get the error midway through the make. I’ve been able to narrow it down to this. It successfully builds all third party libraries including Ice.

Can I ask what is your Linux distribution and GCC version?

[suragnair]

Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS
gcc 6.5.0

Can you check if libFreeze is built successfully at
BDT-0.1.4/ThirdParty/Ice/Ice-3.5.1/cpp/lib/
Do you see below files?
libFreeze.so libFreeze.so.3.5.1 libIce.so.35 libIceUtil.so libIceUtil.so.3.5.1 libSlice.so.35
libFreeze.so.35 libIce.so libIce.so.3.5.1 libIceUtil.so.35 libSlice.so libSlice.so.3.5.1

Yes
