I have never had any problems following the installation instructions on the IUP site. I have only ever done this on Linux Mint, but it has been fine on the last few versions.
Let me know if you want me to check out precisely what the text says.
Running the IUP install script loads files as expected. These .so never load.
I am doing something fundamentally wrong, but can't figure out what.
Then I tried this test procedure:
- I have Ubuntu and MX Linux on a 64bit computer. I have eui and phix.
- I download lots versions of iup for Linux
- I expand each download into a temp directory, and test if I can open the .so files
- To test the compatibility (kernel, IUP version) I run this program (with small changes to make eui and phix work)
-- run in directory containing the .so files --include std/dll.e --include std/filesys.e ? "hello" sequence path path = current_dir() & "/" sequence so = { "libiup.so", "libiupcd.so", "libiupcontrols.so", "libiupgl.so", "libiupglcontrols.so", "libiupim.so", "libiupimglib.so", "libiup_mglplot.so", "libiup_plot.so", "libiup_scintilla.so", "libiuptuio.so", "libiupweb.so", $} for i=1 to length(so) do ? open_dll( path & so[i] ) end for
- The only .so that I can load is "libiup.so" and get a ref number, all the other .so return zero 0.
be well
