I'm not a MacUser, I don't know how your Octave(s) are built, but can you run the following commands in a terminal and tell us what you see: mkoctfile -p OCTINCLUDEDIR grep HDF5_LIBS <answer from previous>/oct-conf.h So for example I see this: $ mkoctfile -p OCTINCLUDEDIR /usr/include/octave-3.6.1/octave $ grep HDF5_LIBS /usr/include/octave-3.6.1/octave/oct-conf.h #ifndef OCTAVE_CONF_HDF5_LIBS #define OCTAVE_CONF_HDF5_LIBS "-lhdf5" -- mike ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
