OS X build failed, seems Makefile not correct

[jakezhaojb]

I made attempt building and installing mattorch on OS X, by: sudo luarocks install mattorch

You are in 'detached HEAD' state. You can look around, make experimental
changes and commit them, and you can discard any commits you make in this
state without impacting any branches by performing another checkout.

If you want to create a new branch to retain commits you create, you may
do so (now or later) by using -b with the checkout command again. Example:

  git checkout -b new_branch_name

cmake -E make_directory build;
cd build;

[szagoruyko]

you can install it manually:

git clone https://github.com/clementfarabet/lua---mattorch.git
cd lua---mattorch
mkdir build
cd build
cmake -DMATLAB_ROOT=/Applications/MATLAB_R2014a.app/ ..
cd ..
luarocks make

Tested, it works! thx @szagoruyko

[jakezhaojb]

Yeah same here! Thanks

Not me: Linking C shared library libmattorchlive.dylib Undefined symbols for architecture x86_64:

[jaiabhayk]

Me neither on mac OSX:-

[parthchadha]

Anybody found way around this problem?

I am on Ubuntu 14 and I encountered the same problem with luarocks install mattorch. After I set the correct MATLAB_ROOT path in my bashrc, the error persisted:

-- Using Matlab in: /usr/local/MATLAB/R2015a:

Then I somehow managed to fix the problem by using MATLAB_ROOT=/usr/local/MATLAB/R2015a luarocks install mattorch instead!

@qizhuli

Hey, there is no need to install mattorch to perform data transferation between .mat and .t7, matio in the torch wiki is your better choice! Good luck~

Regards, rus

I have the same issue. I am using OSX version 10.11.4. I have very large .mat files and I have to save it with "-v7.3" flag in MATLAB, and matio does not read 'v7.3' files, so I think I have to use mattorch, but it does not compile...

I've used both methods, both times it gives me the same error:

1. I tried using the manual compiling suggested above.
2. ) I've also tried using MATLAB_ROOT=/Applications/MATLAB_R2014b.app luarocks install mattorch.

both times I got the following error:

ld: symbol(s) not found for architecture x86_64
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)
make[2]: *** [libmattorchlive.dylib] Error 1
make[1]: *** [CMakeFiles/mattorchlive.dir/all] Error 2
make: *** [all] Error 2

Error: Build error: Failed building.

does anyone know a solution to the compiling issues? Thanks in advance!

[xiaofanglegoc]

I have fixed the same problem using MATLAB_ROOT=/Applications/MATLAB_R2014b.app luarocks install mattorch

[mdshopon]

I took the following steps for UBUNTU 14.04

git clone https://github.com/clementfarabet/lua---mattorch.git cd lua---mattorch mkdir build cd build cmake -DMATLAB_ROOT=/usr/local/MATLAB/R2017a

after this command this error raised.

CMake Error: The following variables are used in this project, but they are set to NOTFOUND. Please set them or make sure they are set and tested correctly in the CMake files: MATLAB_ENG_LIBRARY (ADVANCED) linked by target "mattorch" in directory /home/codehead/lua---mattorch/build linked by target "mattorchlive" in directory /home/codehead/lua---mattorch/build MATLAB_INCLUDE_DIR (ADVANCED) used as include directory in directory /home/codehead/lua---mattorch/build used as include directory in directory /home/codehead/lua---mattorch/build MATLAB_MEX_LIBRARY (ADVANCED) linked by target "mattorch" in directory /home/codehead/lua---mattorch/build linked by target "mattorchlive" in directory /home/codehead/lua---mattorch/build MATLAB_MX_LIBRARY (ADVANCED) linked by target "mattorch" in directory /home/codehead/lua---mattorch/build linked by target "mattorchlive" in directory /home/codehead/lua---mattorch/build

[russellfei]

@codeheadshopon Hi, your CMake variables of Matlab is NOT FOUND, you need to set them in your CMakeList.txt, good luck~

[narner]

I was having the same errors as the original poster on macOS 10.12.4, so tried a manual install:

git clone https://github.com/clementfarabet/lua---mattorch.git
cd lua---mattorch
mkdir build
cd build
cmake -DMATLAB_ROOT=/Applications/MATLAB_R2014a.app/ ..
cd ..
luarocks make

However, I still got the following output:

cmake -E make_directory build;
cd build;
cmake .. -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH="/Users/nicholasarner/torch/install/bin/.." -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX="/Users/nicholasarner/torch/install/lib/luarocks/rocks/mattorch/1.0-0"; 
make

[vivkul]

@narner you may not have used correct MATLAB_ROOT path.

[klen-copic]

This solved the problem of

ld: symbol(s) not found for architecture x86_64

Based on git commit by szagoruyko I got the idea to add SET(CMAKE_C_FLAGS "-undefined dynamic_lookup") to CMakeLists.txt.

Thanks szagoruyko!

This is how my CMakeList.txt looks after the edit:

SET(CMAKE_MODULE_PATH ${PROJECT_SOURCE_DIR})

[DHXxuekun]

I have the same error and I try the method :

git clone https://github.com/clementfarabet/lua---mattorch.git cd lua---mattorch mkdir build cd build cmake -DMATLAB_ROOT=/Applications/MATLAB_R2014a.app/ .. cd .. luarocks make

It will stili be wrong!

I looked up a lot of solutions, none of them worked. Is there any other solution? Thanks!
