On some of my machines, I cannot get the bridge to work. The error message is mystical and I have no idea how to dig deeper ... Any tips?
Thanks,
G
I cannot get this to

IDL> a=obj_new('idl_idlbridge')

Merci Antoine,
but that was not the problem. No zombie IDL process and a restart does not solve it either...
I am wondering if there is a way to make obj_new() more verbose... or maybe there is a way to call the idl_idlbridge dll from somewhere else.... just a way to get more info on what's failing....

What happens if you try it with a different "output" path? See this thread:

Do you have some environment variable set that is causing IDL to find the "wrong" IDL bridge executable, or none at all?
If you do "env", do you see anything related to IDL? If so, I would suggest commenting it out in your shell file and see what happens.
