Issue on cmake inferface for MATLAB on windows

[FabianPeitzmeier]

Hi guys, I was just trying to do step 4 from your instruction to get HPIPM for MATLAB on Windows. Step 3 worked just fine, but the next one gave me a multiple fatal errors (C1083), when I was calling "cmake --build ." It seems like "blasfeo_target.h" cannot be found, but I dont know why ... Do you have any idea to fix this?

What does "cmake -LA .." say where it expects blasfeo to be? You can specify the location explicitely (I use msys2, the syntax for specifying the path probably is C:\ in PowerShell): cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=./install -DBLASFEO_PATH=/c/blasfeo -DBLASFEO_INCLUDE_DIR=/c/blasfeo/include -DHPIPM_TESTING=OFF .. cmake --build . --target install

Hi @FabianPeitzmeier, did you do all parts of step 3, including “Copy blasfeo.lib from build/Debug/ to lib/”?

I have the same problem and did the copy/paste part. The "cmake -LA .." command shows the text below. I think the last line could be the cause but how to fix it?

C:\Users\yanni\Work\DifferentQPSOlverMPC\HPIPM\hpipm-master\build>cmake -LA ..
CMake Deprecation Warning at CMakeLists.txt:36 (cmake_minimum_required):

  Update the VERSION argument <min> value or use a ...<max> suffix to tell
  CMake that the project does not need compatibility with older versions.

Hi guys, I was just trying to do step 4 from your instruction to get HPIPM for MATLAB on Windows. Step 3 worked just fine, but the next one gave me a multiple fatal errors (C1083), when I was calling "cmake --build ." It seems like "blasfeo_target.h" cannot be found, but I dont know why ...

Hi @FabianPeitzmeier, when getting HPIPM for MATLAB, I also encountered the same problem in Step 4, and the prompt did not find "blasfeo_target.h", etc. I tried to put some" .h files" in BLASFEO added to the HPIPM project, but it still says "sys/time.h" cannot be found. Due to these problems, the "hpipm.lib" file was not generated at step 4. I'm curious what is the reason that "hpipm.lib" is not generated and looking forward to working with you to solve this problem. It would be a great honor if you can provide us with a solution @giaf

[rogueyan5]

When I did the step 4, the powershell gave the message

-- Using BLASFEO path: /opt/blasfeo
-- Installation directory: /opt/hpipm

which is not the correct address in my computer, do you know how to solve it ? @giaf

[giaf]

@rogueyan5 as suggested in some posts above, try setting BLASFEO_PATH in HPIPM cmake to the actual value on your machine. The default installation location in /opt/ is the default location for linux machines. See the more detailed answer here https://github.com/giaf/hpipm/discussions/129

@5Sunflower10 same in your case, you should not copy header files between projects, but give to HPIPM cmake the correct installation directory for BLASFEO. With this, the library hpipm.lib will be correctly generated. About the sys/time.h not found, this only affects the test problems outside the library, and it will be fixed soon using some more portable timing mechanism.
