Ubuntu 16.04 - GLIBC dependency

[pingping-lu]

Hi,

Thanks for sharing this awesome code. However, I encountered a problem when I tried to run './lin_x64/AHLSimulation'. The error is like this

"./lin_x64/AHLSimulation: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libm.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.29' not found (required by ./lin_x64/AHLSimulation)"

The code is running on Ubuntu16.04 system. I wonder is it possible for you to provide a new version that can works on Ubuntu16.04? Thank you so much~

Hi.

Thanks for your interest. The simulator was tested on Ubuntu 18 and 20. Is there any way for you to update GLIBC ?
Otherwise we'll see if we can provide this other version, but this will be in a while.

Let me remind also, that for the rain rendering project the simulator is only required if you want to render rain on custom images.

Thank you so much for your reply! I'm very interested in testing on custom images, so I downloaded this particle simulator~
I tried to upgrade the Glibc version on ubuntu 16.04, but it failed. So it'll be great if you could provide a version that can work on ubuntu 16.04. Thanks~

Ok, we'll give it a try in a bit, but I cannot guarantee we will be able to provide Ubuntu 16 support as it is now quite old.

Maybe you could try with the 18.04 AHLSimulation version, you may have better chances. #6 (comment)
