I just put an AMD64 Linux build of GMAT in the "Recent App Snapshot"
download area on SourceForge
(http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=201258&package_id=243415).
There are 2 download packages there:
"gmat-linux-amd64-gui-nomatlab-2007-11-26.tar.gz
<http://downloads.sourceforge.net/gmat/gmat-linux-amd64-gui-nomatlab-2007-11-26.tar.gz?use_mirror=easynews>"
is the GUI based application
"gmat-linux-amd64-sharedlibs-2007-11-26.tar.gz
<http://downloads.sourceforge.net/gmat/gmat-linux-amd64-sharedlibs-2007-11-26.tar.gz?use_mirror=easynews>"
contains the wx and DevIL shared libraries I used
You'll need to download both packages to use it -- I rolled up the
libraries separately so that future builds wouldn't need the full set of
files. I'll probably repackage things in a week or so, based on any
feedback I receive.
To use these files:
1. Download them.
2. Make a GMAT directory, and unpack the files into that directory.
3. As administrator, run ldconfig on the directory containing the
shared libraries. If you use GMAT regularly, you may want to install
the libraries in a folder that is regularly processed by ldconfig (or
set this folder in your LD_LIBRARY_PATH -- though there are warnings
about this on the 'net. Can anyone tell me what to do instead?) so that
the libraries are automatically picked up for use.
4. If you have not done so already, download and install the GMAT
support files. There should be a folder named "files" in the folder
containing the gmatNoMatlab executable. The files folder contains
subfolders with the environmental data (planetary ephemerides, gravity
potential model data, texture maps for the planets, etc).
5. Create a folder named "output". This is the default folder for
output files generated by GMAT.
