1.2 Platforms and versions
In order to run a direct coupling simulation, one needs both the special coupling executable as
well as the MADYMO shared library. Starting from MADYMO R6.3, the latter is distributed by
default with each MADYMO release/patch on all supported Unix and Linux platforms (please
refer to the MADYMO
Installation Instructions). The special executable from the PARTNER
software may be obtained from the PARTNER offices.
With the introduction of the MADYMO shared library, the user can choose which MADYMO
version he wants to use with a certain PARTNER version, and vice versa. To do so, he simply
uses a newer version of MADYMO. If set up correctly, the PARTNER executable will pick up
the new shared library.
For a list of validated MADYMO–PARTNER combinations, please refer to Tab.
1.1–1.4. Please
refer to the MADYMO
Installation Instructions for an up to date list of supported platforms.
