Introduction

There is no standard library configuration that software developers are using. So different kind of standard software like Maya or Houdini might need a different library configuration. In a studio environment you might want to work with Cortex across multiple software platforms and hence you will have to build a specific Cortex configuration that works with the intended 3rd party software. The below build matrix shows a number of configuration that are successfully being used in a Linux environment and Cortex 5.

Notes:

• Maya and Houdini use different TBB versions than 2.2, but all claim compatibility - so far no adverse affects have been noticed using Cortex linked against TBB 2.2 with and Maya or Houdini Version
• Cortex 7 only works with Houdini 12.0 and higher. It is incompatible with Houdini 11 and previous
• Arnold requires Boost 1.43
