Error in make_pdos (line 41) eval(cmd) ;
Error in cvx_install_pdos (line 2) make_pdos
No solution so far, but I did a search of my computer for m.lib and libm.lib and did not find either one. I did find a library called libmex.lib in C:\ProgramFiles\MATLAB\R2014b/extern/lib/win64/microsoft, so my suspicion is that MATLAB 2014b may have changed the name and the location of the mex library. Maybe that is easy to accommodate?
Actually, it looks like the command for linking libraries in mex (on windows, at least) has now changed to
-Lm instead of -lm. Can you give that a shot?
Hi Eric,
That fixed the compilation problem, so I have pdos_direct.mexw64 and pdos_indirect.mexw64. You make a function call in two places that looks like '[ fs, ps, int_path, mext ] = cvx_version;' It is objecting to that syntax for some reason, but I was able to override it by just commenting it out and putting in the cvx path and the mex extension extension manually. The final result is that it does not find the shim to be compatible with cvx 3.0 (see output below). I had to switch to cvx 3.0 to get scs to work. Maybe the other shims for ecos (cvx_ecos.m) and scs (cvx_scs.m) have been updated to be compatible with cvx 3.0?
Thanks,
Paul
