[petsc-users] Petsc and Matlab R2010b

[domenico.borzacchiello at univ-st-etienne.fr]

Hi,
I'm trying to build Petsc (current release) with Matlab R2010b with the
following command line

./config/configure.py --with-cc=icc --with-fc=ifort
--download-f-blas-lapack=1 --download-mpich=1
--with-matlab-dir=/opt/MATLAB/R2010b --with-matlab-engine

The configuration stage is successfully completed. then If I build the
libraries I get the following warning messages:

      ierr = PetscBinaryRead(fd,mxGetPr(plhs[0]),cnt,dt);if (ierr)

Then if I try to run the tests i get the error:

ld: cannot find -licudata
ld: cannot find -licui18n
ld: cannot find -licuuc
ld: cannot find -lustdio

What am I doing wrong? It worked perfectly without the matlab engine?

Thank you in advance,
