Re: [Octaviz-help] Help: octaviz makes octave segfault

[Lukas D. <luk...@ni...>]

Hi,

This might also be interesting in regard to thread: [Octaviz-help] Re:
Octaviz installation on Mac but first need VTK, and possibly also Cmake.

Was able to build octaviz 0.4.7 on OSX/Leopard with octave 3.0.0 and VTK
5.0.4. Octaviz apparently needs some of the VTK X11 functions, so it
won't compile with Carbon/Cocoa support enabled in VTK. 

X11 support for VTK involves hacking around the building problems due to
the opengl/ld bug in leopard and some missing files in VTKs cmake. Same
for octaviz: cmake defs do not generate proper makefiles, esp. LDFLAGS
and CXXFLAGS. Those have to be set with the correct paths to X11, GL
by hand before running ccmake for octaviz the first time.

VTK test works fine, octave works fine. Just the same segfault problem
when i launch vtk_* scripts from within octave. 

cheers
Lukas
