RE: Using CFSQP algorithm in Simmath optimize

<t>Hi Moonki,<br/> <br/> The CFSQP optimizer is a commercial code used by a SimTK application and is not something we support. You would have to get a license from the owner to use the software. The license may be free for academic use. The link I have for CFSQP is broken so you will need to google ...

RE: Simtk core installation problem

<t>Hi Kishor,<br/> <br/> We think the problem is an incompatibility with the Visual Studio Express runtime on your machines and the Visual Studio Professional we used to build SimTK. We are working on a Visual Studio Express version of SimTK and should have it ready by early next week. Would you be ...

RE: debug libs on windows

Yes, building all the libraries using the same Visual Studio is the only way to be sure the debugger will work. Note, that if you decide to build your own SimTK you do not have to rebuild the SimTKlapack library because that does not have as many dependencies as the other libraries.

RE: debug libs on windows

<t>The problem we ran into when we tried to release a debug version of Windows was that Microsoft does not have a redistributable for debug libraries. This means that only users with the exact version of Visual Studio, including the same patches, as what we used to build SimTK could use it. We tried...

RE: StateTest fails after compiling simtkcomm

Hi Rob,

Currently we do not have any plans to do a MinGW release for SimTK. It would depend on how many users we thought would use it. The GCC 4.3.2 on MinGW is encouraging.

RE: StateTest fails after compiling simtkcomm

Hi Rob,

I forgot to mention that updating the SimTKlapack.h should fix the compile error in simmath. However, it may not fix the failures in StateTest. We have not tried to compile SimTK on Cygwin yet.

RE: StateTest fails after compiling simtkcomm

<t>Hi Robert,<br/> <br/> It looks like the SimTKlapack.h you are using is out of date. This is explained in the Cygwin section of the Wiki:<br/> <br/> "2) Install the SimTKlapack.h from the SimTKlapack project download page and place it in the core/include directory.

RE: Fortran compiler optional?

Basically your options are to get a Fortran compiler
and compile your own LAPACK or use a precompiled LAPACK compatible library. You could get the source
for LAPACK from netlib and compile your own library
and link the other libraries to it.
