Cannot link GSL correctly

[mapo121]

Hello,

I cannot find the compiler that is described in the documentation GCC version of gcc-6.3.1 and GNU extension with std=gnu++14

Any link or old attachment is appreciated.

Thank you

[sgmccalla]

Could you please list your 1) operating system 2) your current compiler 3) the command and error are you getting.

[sgmccalla]

Based on the errors, I suspect that GNU Scientific Library (gsl) might not be installed. Please check if gsl is installed, and if not you could follow installation instructions from here (caveat that I have not tested these instructions and you might have to adapt them): https://coral.ise.lehigh.edu/jild13/2016/07/11/hello/ or try: sudo apt install libgsl-dev

[mapo121]

I'm in the MakeFile now, I have gsl installed. Where do you link the GSL library inside of your makefile?

LFLAG = -lgsl -lgslcblas

INCLPATH2 = common/
INCLPATH3 = orthomapsparser/

CFLAGS = -g -std=gnu++14 -gdwarf-2

condSpecLearner: $(SRC)
        $(CC) $(SRC) -I $(INCLPATH2) -I $(INCLPATH3)  $(LFLAG) $(CFLAGS) -o scMTNI

[sroyyors]

hi Moses, what is the error you are getting when you compile? It seems you have provided a link to the gsl library in your email you sent us. Please do not use both email and GitHub with separate messages. Please only use GitHub.

[mapo121]

Its the same error that GSL cannot be found. I wanted to know how you would link the GSL library in the makefile you have. I added my GSL path to my PATH variable already.

[sroyyors]

Sorry can you paste the error here? You have to use the -L option before $(LFLAG)and specify the path to the gsl_lib folder and -I flag for the gsl_include folders.

[sroyyors]

hi Moses, Just like you have included the lib path /work/WORK/binaries/gsl/lib/ for the -L option you also need to provide the include path for gsl using another -I option. Based on your path above, I believe you can do -I /work/WORK/binaries/gsl/include

This should get rid of the gsl specific errors.

The others seem to be compiler version specific. scMTNI was compiled with g++ 4.8.5. Can you tell us what you get if you do:

g++ --version

on the command line?

Thanks Moses, I think we will load the appropriate compiler on our machines and see if we can fix the issues for you.

[mapo121]

Might I suggest that you use Docker? I have Docker installed, could you export a Dockerhub that people/I could install locally on their computer.

I've written my own Dockerfile before, but you would know the "dependencies" you would need to run scMTNI.

https://hub.docker.com/

[sroyyors]

hi Moses, Docker is useful when the software needs a lot of complex dependencies. We don't think scMTNI has so many dependencies. All it needs really is gsl. This design was deliberate so that users can install and use scMTNI without going inside a blackhole of packages after packages.

I looked again above at the errors you get. It seems the error is only the missing paths for gsl/include and gsl/lib. You have already installed gsl so all you need to do is update the -I flag and the -L flag as we described before. The other messages are just warnings. I see these when I upgrade the compiler. But there are no errors. Can you try setting the path and see if you get the scMTNI executable?

[mapo121]

I see only warnings now -
