I am now able to post to the list, so let me post it here. The reason for non standard install is I am evaluating quite a few ABM software right now, on the lines of StupidModel. Actually it is a very simplified version of an population based technique I am working on. So once I am done with this evaluation, I would want to be able to just copy the entire /opt directory on to another machine. I have run into few more problems though. I tried running stupid01 (actually any model from the StupidProject). It compiles fine, but when I run it I get a runtime St9bad_alloc exception. It occurs with setup() at the line, objref& o=objects[mapid(i, j)]; when x=0, y=3. Any ideas?? --shivakar > Thanks for this comment Srinivasa.
