Two pieces I omitted:

(1) need to edit the environment variable. On Mac OSX it's best to edit ~/.MacOSX/environment.plist to add a key-value pair MPTK_CONFIG_FILENAME="/Users/your-username/.mptk/path.xml"

(2) I notice that mpd_multithread sometimes exits with Bus Error, but appears to correctly produce the book prior to exit.

Finally got to spend some time on this and I have a successful Leopard install. (1) Build FFTW with multithreading (--enable-threads); (2) configure and build MPTK for multithreading, (3) create ~/.mptk and copy the ~mptk/bin/path.xml file there.

FFTW and MPTK: enable multithreading [ Reply ]

I am building MPTK for Mac OSX (Leopard), and I notice that FFTW supports a configuration option for multithreading to leverage SMP architectures. I would like to compile FFTW with multithreading enabled, but I don't want to have to make extensive changes to MPTK source to make the two work. Does anyone know if MPTK will build correctly against a multithreaded FFTW?

Thanks!
Andy
