matlab-opensim interface linux

Hi,

Is it possible to use a combination of Matlab and OpenSim in Linux? I would like to do this because I also need a third program for which I only have a Linux license.

I installed OpenSim in Linux by building it from source. Then I set up Matlab following the instructions of http://simtk-confluence.stanford.edu:80 ... ith+Matlab . These are instructions for Windows. I think they might work also for Linux, except for the step where you need to point to the org-opensim-modeling.jar file. This file is not available in the OpenSim installation from source. I tried pointing at the file located at my Windows partition, but I don't know if this is the right thing to do.

When I try to run a script in Matlab (which works in Windows), I get an error (screenshot available in attachment).
Any ideas how this can be solved?

Hi Kevin,

The Java wrapping for OpenSim is not included in the source code distribution. It will be included in the next distribution.
