Building the libDAI MatLab interface fails under Cygwin

[sun...@foxmail.com]

Hi,

I‘m trying to build lidDAI matlab interface under Cygwin64. I first try to use the following setting to build.

      (1)ME=.mexw64

      (2)CC=g++

      (3)CCFLAGS=-Wno-deprecated -Wall -W -Wextra -DCYGWIN

      (4)MEX=$(MATLABDIR)/bin/mex

      (5)MEXFLAGS:=CXX=$(CC) CXXFLAGS='$(CCFLAGS)'

As showed in the following, an error occurs. It seems like matlab command "mex" is not found.

$ make

/cygdrive/c/Program\ Files/MATLAB/R2014a/bin/mex -Iinclude -I/cygdrive/c/sdk/boost/boost_1_59_0 -I/cygdrive/d/cygwin64/usr/local/include CXX=g++ CXXFLAGS='-Wno-deprecated -Wall -W -Wextra -DCYGWIN' -largeArrayDims  -lgmpxx -lgmp  -output matlab/dai.mexw64 src/matlab/dai.cpp src/matlab/matlab.cpp src/graph.cpp src/dag.cpp src/bipgraph.cpp src/varset.cpp src/daialg.cpp src/alldai.cpp src/clustergraph.cpp src/factor.cpp src/factorgraph.cpp src/properties.cpp src/regiongraph.cpp src/cobwebgraph.cpp src/util.cpp src/weightedgraph.cpp src/exceptions.cpp src/exactinf.cpp src/evidence.cpp src/emalg.cpp src/io.cpp src/bp.cpp src/fbp.cpp src/trwbp.cpp src/mf.cpp src/hak.cpp src/lc.cpp src/treeep.cpp src/jtree.cpp src/mr.cpp src/gibbs.cpp src/bbp.cpp src/cbp.cpp src/bp_dual.cpp src/decmap.cpp src/glc.cpp

Makefile:193: recipe for target 'matlab/dai.mexw64' failed

make: *** [matlab/dai.mexw64] Error 127

Then, I try to make the change: MEX=$(MATLABDIR)/bin/win64/mex.exe. I think it is true path of "mex" command.

Still I get an error, which shows that "mex" command is using "Microsoft Visual C++ 2012" compiler, and not using Cygwin g++ compiler. That is, with this setting we cannot change the compiler that "mex" command use. Is it because  format or parameters of "mex" command in Windows is different from that in other OS?  Thanks a lot.

Bests, Sun
