Mex files dependencies problem about gptoolbox

[alecjacobson]

First, the ambient_occlusion function is only for making the rendering fancier and is not needed for the blue noise function.

Second, it seems like a path issue. Are you checking that LD_LIBRARY_PATH is what you think you've set it to from within matlab? I know on Mac OS X it is not enough to set the path in your .bashrc or .profile.

You can check by issuing in matlab,

system('echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH')

Thank you for the reply. It is just my first time working with mex files so I wanted to get it to the end. I know that ambient occlusion is auxiliary here.

Here is what system('echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH') prints:

/usr/local/MATLAB/R2015a/sys/os/glnxa64:/usr/local/MATLAB/R2015a/bin/glnxa64:/usr/local/MATLAB/R2015a/extern/lib/glnxa64:/usr/local/MATLAB/R2015a/runtime/glnxa64:/usr/local/MATLAB/R2015a/sys/java/jre/glnxa64/jre/lib/amd64/native_threads:/usr/local/MATLAB/R2015a/sys/java/jre/glnxa64/jre/lib/amd64/server:/opt/AMDAPPSDK-3.0/lib/x86_64/:/home/kareem/libigl/libigl/external/embree

So I guess the path to embree is correctly configured. I am on a Linux machine so maybe the problem you mentioned is not present.

Anyway, I don't want to waste your time so I will try to find the reason for this and get back to the thread if I find out the problem.

@KareemErgawy Did you end up finding a solution for this?
