Installation of Symbolic Toolbox

[Kai Börner]

Hi,

Before installing the symbolic toolbox I installed cln 1.1.9 and Ginac 
1.3.2. My octave version is 2.1.71 and I am using Cygwin. Afterwards I 
tried to install the symbolic toolbox but encountered some problems. May 
someone can help me solve them. The first error I expirienced was:

> g++ -c -I/usr/local/include/octave-2.1.71 
> -I/usr/local/include/octave-2.1.71/octave -I/usr/local/include 
> -mieee-fp -g -O2 -I/usr/local/include -I/usr/local/include ov-ex.cc -o 
> ov-ex.o
> ov-ex.cc:144:53: macro "DEFINE_OV_TYPEID_FUNCTIONS_AND_DATA" requires 
> 3 arguments, but only 2 given
> ov-ex.cc:144: error: ISO C++ forbids declaration of `
>    DEFINE_OV_TYPEID_FUNCTIONS_AND_DATA' with no type
> make: *** [ov-ex.o] Error 1


I tried to fix this problem by simply adding a third argument "sym" at 
the else part.

> #ifdef TYPEID_HAS_CLASS
> DEFINE_OV_TYPEID_FUNCTIONS_AND_DATA (octave_ex, "ex", "sym");
> #else
> DEFINE_OV_TYPEID_FUNCTIONS_AND_DATA (octave_ex, "ex");
> #endif

That worked so far till a second error occured:

> rm -f vpa.oct
> symbols.oct vpa.oct
> make: execvp: symbols.oct: Permission denied
> make: *** [vpa.oct] Error 127

I would be glad if someone could enlight me.

Thanks in advance,

Kai Börner
