Mark beta crash, libiomp5md.dll

[jjroper]

I just installed, and the first file I tried to run (which worked fine on previous versions) caused a crash and it was said to be due to failure to find: libiomp5md.dll

I found some references to this DLL, and it looks like greek to me. This is one comment I found about that dll:

Nope, the file (libiomp5mt.lib) is there, your install is either corrupted or you looked in the wrong folder -- folder hierarchy has changed with 11.0.
There is a workaround with specifying /nodefaultlib:libiomp5md.lib, and adding libiomp5mt.lib to the dependency list for each OpenMP project, architecture, and configuration but that is ugly, tedious and error-prone so I am not going to accept that.

The very first time I tried to install the beta (a few days ago) I had the same issue (same .dll as well). Here's what I did which seemed to work for me:

1. go into the control panel and use the formal uninstall for MARK

2. then, manually delete the /MARK subdirectories

3. then, reboot the machine

4. then, install the beta

5. then, reboot again

6. now try it (at my end, it worked fine after that)

I still have the problem. I uninstalled, made sure there was no Mark directory left. Then, restarted the computer, then installed Mark Beta. Then restarted the computer once more, and lo and behold, got the exact same error message as before.

Just thought I would let you know that this new beta seems to work just fine. At least, I was able to run the file that I was trying to run before on the other beta version - whether there are NO other problems is anybody's guess!

Thanks Gary!

Thanks for the feedback. There are still some compiler issues to be worked through to balance successful compilation of a working mark.exe, speed, and numerical accuracy. But, having a working executable is the first step.
