New patch for Windows installation

A new patch has just been posted for installing version 5.3.1 under Windows
(see http://www.gnu.org/software/mcsim/WindowsInstall.html).

MCSim on Cygwin

Attached is a listing from a build attempt on Cygwin on Windows XP

There are errors in the creation of libmcsim.so

What am I doing wrong ?

"Standard Platform" ?

Ive been trying to use MCSim on both windows and Mac OS (Leopard), and have run in to quirks related to the compilation that prompt the following question:

What is thestandard platform that MCSim development is being done on ? Im assuming by posing this question that the build scripts and tools are all designed for a certain Linux or Unix platform and that a build will run clean on such a platform.

Ive been unsuccessful at finding good help in build MCSim for Mac OS, and am attempting to create a virtual machine running a linux distro, so that I can at least have a reference installation to refer to as I work through what it takes to build for Mac.

Thanks in advance for any help you can give me.

Re: Fwd: questions about MCSim

Cindy,

It's good to see another MCSim user in the Pacific Northwest!  Enjoy
your modeling!

If it's of any use, I created a quick reference card for MCSim that
includes some of its newer features.  You can find it along with a
presentation I made two and a half years ago in Portland at
http://facilitatedsystems.com/links.html#sd

As to your question, I use J (http://www.jsoftware.com/) as my scripting
language, and I've written J scripts to assemble simulation files
programmatically, run the model, and produce graphs.  That worked quite
nicely.  

For a simple example, see http://www.adaptistration.com/?p=1185.  While
that article doesn't contain the scripts, it does show the results.  For
example (as I recall), I had a script that picked percentage ranges for
the three key parameters, assembled a simulation file, ran the
simulation, and plotted and saved the table of eight graphs or the stick
plot you can see.

Fwd: questions about MCSim


Hello,

I am a PhD student at Oregon Health & Science University. I am using MCSim to do my modeling work for hormone
profiles in Fathead Minnows. The question I would like to ask is about "vectors". 

According to MCSim manual, vectors should be defined as <variable-name>'['<integer>']'. Can I define
the <integer> as a variable? I mean, for example, I would like to use a 'n' to replace the <integer>; then in
the first run, I define n=10 (the vector has a length of 10), and in the second run I define n=7 (the vector has
a length of 7), as so on. Then, for different runs, the length of the vector varies.

I tried several times, it seems that the present program does not accept it. Would you please give me any
suggestion? Can I modify the program a little bit to add this function in? and how? Thank you very much!

Best!
