Hi, has anyone had success with CALL_EXTERNAL or DLM's on Debian Linux? I'm using IDL 5.1 because of problems with 5.2 on my system. When I try IDL's example in /usr/local/rsi/idl/external/sharelib, I get an error: % CALL_EXTERNAL: Error loading sharable executable. Symbol: simple, File = /home/fardal/comp/idl/external/simple .so File not found % Execution halted at: C_ONLY 161 c_only.pro % $MAIN$ IDL> $pwd /home/fardal/comp/idl/external IDL> $ls simple.so simple.so So the file exists, but can't be found. Perhaps it just had problems loading, IDL's error messages are often inaccurate. The same thing happens when I try to use Stein's DLMFORM script. Any ideas? thanks, Mark Fardal UMass
