Hi,

I am a new user of ArrayFire. I have a macbook pro retina 13" with Iris graphics, Yosemite 10.10.5. I've installed ArrayFire using recommended installer, Homebrew was already installed and up-to-date before running the installer.

I followed the steps for testing ArrayFire first installation in XCode, using openCL implementation, at http://www.arrayfire.com/docs/using_on_osx.htm

It compiles but at runtime, I get this error:

dyld: Library not loaded: /usr/local/lib/libfontconfig.1.dylib

Referenced from: /usr/local/lib/libforge.dylib

Reason: image not found

Any idea what I'm missing?

Here I tried with Xcode, but ultimately I will use ArrayFire in Qt 5 for my image processing project at https://github.com/raphaelattie/QtFits.git

Thanks

Raphael

Compiling myself with the instructions there , github source, and installing dependencies with homebrew, compile with cmake worked around this. In the process, homebrew revealed a problem with an unlinked Glew install. Fixed it by changing ownership in /usr/local back to default (with my username). Maybe that was what caused an issue with the default installer.

Hi,
I am having the same problem as you ^^. I installed Array file 3.1.3 package.
