IDL on Mac Funning Yosemite?
type: item
description: Folks, I got an e-mail today from someone who claims he can't get either IDL 7.1 or IDL 8.2 to run on the Yosemite version of OS X. Is there any truth to this? Is there a trick to installing IDL on this OS? This person claims the problem is with libPNG. Can anyone fill me in on what he is talking about. :-( Thanks, David -- David Fanning, Ph.D. Fanning Software Consulting, Inc.

("Perhaps thou speakest truth.") Hi there, It is my first post here, in fact, I was the one who wrote to David to find a solution for older IDL versions to run on OS X Yosemite. Like Cesar said, the newer versions of IDL (8.3+) are working on Yosemite. I downloaded the demo version of ENVI 5.1 and tested on Yosemite with everything working flawlessly. The problem I noticed with IDL 7.1 and 8.2 is with libPNG and libz. It seems that libz needs some sort of symbol called "_inflateReset2" presented in libPng, but it is missing in…

description: I found an amazingly simple solution. (I'm running IDL 8.2) Just go to Applications/exelis/idl82/bin/bin.darwin.x86_64 and you should have two files named libz.1.dylib and libz.1.2.3.dylib (or some new version). Delete libz.1.dylib and IDL 8.2 should work perfectly. At least it did for me.

description: Yes. Heard about this JAVA v6 problem on Yosemite. And it brings trouble with QGIS as well. Hope Apple can fix it in the later versions.

With 8.4 on Yosemite, however, firing up idlde the first time complained about need to install "legacy Java SE 6 runtime." You're directed to Apple's download site.

After upgrading to Yosemite, I could not load IDL from the command line. The error read: dyld: Library not loaded: /usr/X11/lib/libXp.6.dylib Referenced from: /Applications/exelis/idl82/bin/bin.darwin.x86_64/libidl.8.2. dylib Reason: image not found Trace/BPT trap: 5 After noticing I did not have an X11 directory in the /usr/ directory, I soft linked it from /opt/X11/: sudo mkdir /usr/X11/ password: ****** sudo ln -s /opt/X11/* /usr/X11/ This solved my issue. -Kevin
