I’m curious about what made you select this particular issue :) There are 24 open on github issues that need addressing. It is excellent software, but there hasn’t been a release since May 2017. It hasn’t kept up with changes in cmdstan.
The problem with the code you posted is similar to one of the open issues: https://github.com/brian-lau/MatlabStan/issues/57. It mentions how to fix it. This issue also mentions an issue with pulling the version of cmdstan after 2.22.0, which breaks MatlabStan across systems.
It seems that it would be a straightforward fix using ispc
to determine whether the user is running Windows. It seems this is a problem elsewhere in the MatlabStan code based on the issue referenced above. I don’t know if this fixes the problem you’re referencing though, because I run MatlabStan on a mac.
I can help address some of the open issues on github to keep it running. (as long as I can do so on mac for the time being) I don’t know if many others out there use MatlabStan though. I only use it for particular things, but I do most other Stan modeling in R .
How can I help? I’m MATLAB savvy but not stan savvy :) I would like to ensure that MatlabStan continues to be maintained, so I’m happy to help.
(also, https://mc-stan.org/docs/2_24/cmdstan-guide/compiling-a-stan-program.html#invoking-the-make-utility says that Mac and Linux use the backslash, but the example given uses forward slashes)
