[kepler-users] Kepler 2.3 and MATLAB

[Christopher Brooks]

I saw that error message on my Windows Server 2008 R2 64-bit machine:
C:\Program Files 
(x86)\Kepler-2.3\common-2.3.0\lib\ptolemy\matlab\ptmatlab.dll: Can't 
load IA 32-bit .dll on a AMD 64-bit platform
However, the machine does not have Matlab installed, so I thought I 
would focus on that problem first.

One workaround would be to build Ptolemy II from source and generate a 
ptmatlab.dll file for the different platforms.

See http://chess.eecs.berkeley.edu/ptexternal for details.
