Generating Mathlink executables by CCompilerDriver


I'm trying to generate a MathLink executable by CCompilerDriver package. The MathLink executable produced by Makefile works properly. However, when I'm trying to generate the same thing by CCompilerDriver, an executable can be generated and installed without any warnings. But it keeps crashing whenever I tried to use its functions. And the link closed automatically.


Any ideas on how to fix this issue?


Files cddmathlink.c, cddmathlink.tm, cddmlio.c, cddmlio.h, mathlink.h and the original Makefile can be found in
https://github.com/mcmtroffaes/cddlib/tree/master/src-mathlink2 .


One may also find the latest source file for cddlib through the link above.



I'm using OS X and I installed cddlib and GMP libraries via Homebrew. So I changed the Makefile according to my system and the installation of Mathematica, cddlib and GMP. The Makefile works and the resulting executable works properly too. But I don't know how to produce the executable via CCompilerDriver package.


The Makefile


MLINKDIR = /Applications/Mathematica.app/SystemFiles/Links/MathLink/DeveloperKit
SYS = MacOSX-x86-64
CADDSDIR = ${MLINKDIR}/${SYS}/CompilerAdditions
INCDIR = ${CADDSDIR}
LIBDIR = ${CADDSDIR}
MPREP = ${CADDSDIR}/mprep
RM = rm
EXTRA_LIBS = -stdlib=libstdc++ -lstdc++ -framework Foundation

MATHLINK_LIB = -lMLi4
CC = /usr/bin/clang

BINARIES = cddmlgmp

all : $(BINARIES)

cddmlgmp : cddmathlinktm.o cddmathlink.o cddmlio.o
${CC} -I${INCDIR} cddmlio.o cddmathlinktm.o cddmathlink.o -L${LIBDIR} ${MATHLINK_LIB} ${EXTRA_LIBS} -lgmp /usr/local/lib/libcddgmp.a -o cddmlgmp


cddmathlinktm.o: cddmathlinktm.c
$(CC) -c cddmathlinktm.c

cddmathlink.o: cddmathlink.c
$(CC) -c cddmathlink.c -o cddmathlink.o

cddmlio.o: cddmlio.c
$(CC) -DGMPRATIONAL -c cddmlio.c -o cddmlio.o

cddmathlinktm.c : cddmathlink.tm

${MPREP} $? > $@

clean:
${RM} -rf *.o *tm.c $(BINARIES)

First attempt (not working):


Needs["CCompilerDriver`"];
dir = FileNameJoin[{"~/", "OneDrive", "Documents", "Bitbucket", "cddlib", "src-mathlink"}];
src = FileNames[{"cddmathlink.*", "cddmlio.c"}, dir, Infinity];
CreateExecutable[src, "cddmlgmp", "Libraries" -> {"/usr/local/lib/libgmp.a", "/usr/local/lib/libcddgmp.a"}, "Defines" -> "GMPRATIONAL", "ShellOutputFunction" :> Print, "ShellCommandFunction" :> Print, "TargetDirectory" -> dir]


Another attempt (not working either):


Needs["CCompilerDriver`"];
dir = FileNameJoin[{"~/", "OneDrive", "Documents", "Bitbucket", "cddlib", "src-mathlink"}];
src = FileNames["cddmathlink.*", dir, Infinity];
srcext = FileNames["cddmlio.c",dir,Infinity];
obj = CreateObjectFile[srcext, "cddmlio", "Defines" -> "GMPRATIONAL", "ShellOutputFunction" :> Print, "ShellCommandFunction" :> Print, "TargetDirectory" -> dir];
CreateExecutable[src, "cddmlgmp", "Libraries" -> {"/usr/local/lib/libcddgmp.a", "/usr/local/lib/libgmp.a"}, "ExtraObjectFiles" -> obj, "ShellOutputFunction" :> Print, "ShellCommandFunction" :> Print, "TargetDirectory" -> dir]

front end - keyboard shortcut to invoke Insert new matrix

I frequently need to type in some matrices, and the menu command Insert > Table/Matrix > New... allows matrices with lines drawn between columns and rows, which is very helpful. I would like to make a keyboard shortcut for it, but cannot find the relevant frontend token command (4209405) for it. Since the FullForm[] and InputForm[] of matrices with lines drawn between rows and columns is the same as those without lines, it's hard to do this via 3rd party system-wide text expanders (e.g. autohotkey or atext on mac). How does one assign a keyboard shortcut for the menu item Insert > Table/Matrix > New... , preferably using only mathematica? Thanks! Answer In the MenuSetup.tr (for linux located in the $InstallationDirectory/SystemFiles/FrontEnd/TextResources/X/ directory), I changed the line MenuItem["&New...", "CreateGridBoxDialog"] to read MenuItem["&New...", "CreateGridBoxDialog", MenuKey["m", Modifiers-...

mathematical optimization - Minimizing using indices, error: Part::pkspec1: The expression cannot be used as a part specification

I want to use Minimize where the variables to minimize are indices pointing into an array. Here a MWE that hopefully shows what my problem is. vars = u@# & /@ Range[3]; cons = Flatten@ { Table[(u[j] != #) & /@ vars[[j + 1 ;; -1]], {j, 1, 3 - 1}], 1 vec1 = {1, 2, 3}; vec2 = {1, 2, 3}; Minimize[{Total@((vec1[[#]] - vec2[[u[#]]])^2 & /@ Range[1, 3]), cons}, vars, Integers] The error I get: Part::pkspec1: The expression u[1] cannot be used as a part specification. >> Answer Ok, it seems that one can get around Mathematica trying to evaluate vec2[[u[1]]] too early by using the function Indexed[vec2,u[1]] . The working MWE would then look like the following: vars = u@# & /@ Range[3]; cons = Flatten@{ Table[(u[j] != #) & /@ vars[[j + 1 ;; -1]], {j, 1, 3 - 1}], 1 vec1 = {1, 2, 3}; vec2 = {1, 2, 3}; NMinimize[ {Total@((vec1[[#]] - Indexed[vec2, u[#]])^2 & /@ R...
