[Jmatlab-users] problem with GNU-PLOT

[Sergio G. <jb...@gm...>]

Hi to =BFall?
 I don't know if there is somebody reading this. I am testing jMatlab in a
redhat linux distribution, and i have experimented some problems installing
gnuplot utility. It checks that the name of the file ends with ".exe" but i=
n
linux that does not happen. I have solved creating a symbolic link named
gnuplot.exe pointing to the correct executable file.
 I would like to know in which preferences text file this information is
written (to modify it by hand) or if this problem will be solved early.

 Thanks for all.

[Jmatlab-users] problem with GNU-PLOT

Hi, 

I did not test it with linux. On windows you will go the eclipse menu Windows -> Preferences then select "jmatlab preferences". It will show you the screen to modify the path to the file. Unfortunately, at this point it is expecting a particular name of the file so it might not accept it on linux. Could you please try and let me know if you got it work.

Regards,

Hi,

As per your advice, I removed the check for the file name. The change will be available in next build in a few days. I am glad that you not only identified the problem but also came up with a solution.

I hope you will continue to provide your feedback.

Thank you
