Compilation of MEX files fails in OSX 10.9.2 (clang-500.2.79)

[JoaoRodrigues]

Setting the OPENMP option in Make.config does not allow the code to compile on the above-mentioned setup. The compiler complains it cannot find -lgomp.

Removing this from the compilation line in modules/Makefile (line 47) allows the code to compile (and run). Sorry for not submitting a patch but I'm not familiar with Makefile syntax at all..

Thanks for reporting. Hopefully, it should be fixed now if you set OPENMP=0 in Make.config (otherwise I'll reopen the issue). However, using OpenMP can improve performance significantly - unfortunately, clang doesn't support it yet, so you'd need to use gcc or icc to use it. Or you would need to use the Julia version of the code instead, which does not require to compile anything and has the same performance (slightly better actually).

On my Mac I'm stuck with clang, and I won't really install Julia since on the cluster we have a normal GCC and MATLAB (so OpenMP works perfectly).

The patch works great, thanks, and thanks for making this available here too!
