Re: [infomap-nlp-users] InfoMap and Cygwin Compiling Problems

[Robert B. <ha...@be...>]

 Good afternoon Scott,

Due to limited experience with the UNIX environment, I decided to manually
delete the line containing the malloc declaration as opposed to the CVS
route. However, your original instructions identified the declaration on
line 167 of myutils.c at the beginning of the myutils() function, but line
167 falls under the mymalloc() function, which I assumed was the reference
you were indicating.

I removed the declaration "char *malloc();" from myutils.c and reattempted
the "./configure" and "make" commands, but received error messages when
executing the "make" command. The following text below is the output of both
commands. Any assistance you can provide is appreciated!

Hi Robert,

      This is a bug that has been fixed in the CVS version of the
software.  We're planning to release the fixed version shortly, but
until then you have two options:

      1. Check out the latest CVS version and use that.  (You can find
instructions on how to obtain this version by following the "CVS
Repository" link near the bottom of the Infomap SourceForge project
info page (http://sourceforge.net/projects/infomap-nlp/) and reading
the section entitled "Anonymous CVS Access".)

      2. Edit the svd/svdinterface/myutils.c file.  Go to line 167 in
myutils.c, and remove the obsolete line where "malloc" is declared,
right at the beginning of the myutils() function.  After that
everything should work.

     Please let me know if this works out for you.  I'll try to get
the new release out by the end of the week, if you'd rather wait for
that.


                            Scott
