Return to the top of the Maple 2022 Installation and Licensing Guide.

Maple Toolbox Installation

If you have a 64-bit version of Maple and MATLAB® installed, you can install a toolbox that provides an integration between Maple and MATLAB®, where you can directly access all of the commands, variables and functions of Maple and MATLAB® while working in either environment.

MATLAB® Version Requirements

Maple 2022 connectivity with MATLAB® is supported for MATLAB® 2020b, 2021a or 2021b. For the latest information on which MATLAB® versions are compatible with Maple 2022, visit http://www.maplesoft.com/products/system_requirements.aspx. Note that older and newer versions of MATLAB® may work, but may not be tested by Maplesoft.

Install the Maple Toolbox during the Maple Installation Process

During the Maple installation process, the Maple installer will display a panel indicating that the installer has detected that MATLAB® is installed. At this point, you can install a toolbox which will connect Maple with MATLAB® by selecting the MATLAB® version that you want to use from the list of available MATLAB® versions. You can also skip the Maple Toolbox installation by selecting Do not configure at this time.

If the MATLAB® Symbolic Math Toolbox™ is installed, another panel will prompt you to select either the Maple Toolbox or MATLAB® Symbolic Math Toolbox™ as the default.

Install the Maple Toolbox after Installing Maple

To install the Maple Toolbox after Maple is installed, do the following:

  • On Windows, run the Maple toolbox installation file in the Maple install root directory, which is C:\Program Files\Maple 2022 by default. Follow the on-screen instructions.
  • On Linux, run the Maple toolbox installation file in the Maple install root directory, which is $HOME/Maple2022/ by default, where $HOME is your home directory. Follow the on-screen instructions.
  • On Macintosh, run the Maple toolbox installation file in the Maple install root directory, which is /Applications/Maple 2022 by default. Follow the on-screen instructions.

Getting Started with the Maple Toolbox

Start MATLAB® and then open the MATLAB® help system. To open the main Maple Toolbox help page, click Supplemental Software and select Maple Toolbox from the table of contents.

Graphics Issues for Linux Users

Installing the Maple Toolbox can cause issues with graphics in Maple and associated programs (for example, MapleSim). This is due to a graphics library conflict. To fix this, you need to delete some library files that come with MATLAB®.

To configure Maple Toolbox on Linux:

  1. Open a command-line terminal.
  1. Execute the following command to change to the library directory:

cd $MATLAB/sys/os/glnxa64/

Where $MATLAB is your MATLAB® installation directory.

  1. Execute the following command to delete the libraries:

rm libstdc++*

Return to the top of the Maple 2022 Installation and Licensing Guide.

Verifying Video Card Driver Requirements

To optimize the performance of graphics in Maple 2022, it is strongly recommended that you install the latest driver software available for your video card. Before using Maple 2022, follow the steps in this section to verify and, if necessary, upgrade your video card driver software.

Return to the top of the Maple 2022 Installation and Licensing Guide.

Downloading and Installing Driver Updates From a Vendor's Website

If you are using a Linux operating system, or if you are using a Windows or Macintosh operating system and the driver software that was automatically detected does not function as expected, download and install the latest driver from the website of the video card vendor.

Identifying the Driver Version Used by Your Video Card

Windows
  1. In the Device Manager window, expand the Display adapters section.
  1. Right-click the entry for the video card used by your computer and select Properties. A dialog box that contains information related to your video card is displayed.
  1. Click the Driver tab. The driver version used by your video card is listed beside Driver Version at the top of the window.
Linux

First, determine whether hardware accelerated graphics are turned on.

  • In the root of your Linux installation, run the glxinfo | head command.

If hardware accelerated graphics are turned on, you will see a line that reads direct rendering: Yes. If this line reads direct rendering: No, hardware accelerated graphics are not turned on.

You can search the package management system of your Linux installation for drivers installed on your computer. Linux distributions use different package management systems; the instructions below are provided for the two most common Linux distributions.

dpkg-based Linux distributions such as Ubuntu

To query which packages are installed on your system, run the dpkg -l command. (Note that this is a lower-case letter L.) This command will display several lines of output, so it is useful to limit the output using the grep command. Continuing with the example above, enter the following command to search for NVIDIA® drivers.

dpkg -1 | grep -i nvidia

If you have a hardware accelerated driver installed, you will see an output line such as nvidia-glx-177. In this example, 177 is the major version number of the driver. The full driver version number is displayed in the second column. For example, it will look like 177.82-0ubuntu0.1 on a Ubuntu system.

Hardware accelerated AMD® and ATI™ drivers are named fglrx on Linux. For example, the package name could be fglrx-amdcccle and the version number may look like 2:8.543-0ubuntu4.1 on a Ubuntu system.

Intel® integrated accelerated graphics hardware may contain intel in the package name or just the chipset information, such as i810.

rpm-based Linux distributions such as SuSE and Red Hat Enterprise Linux

To query which packages are installed on an rpm-based Linux system, run the rpm -qa command. This command will list every package installed on your computer, so you can limit the search by using the grep command. For example,

rpm -qa | grep nvidia

Obtaining the Latest Driver Software

To download the latest driver software for your video card, visit the website of your video card vendor.

AMD or ATI Video Cards

Visit http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/Pages/index.aspx and search for the driver software for your operating system and video card type. Download and install the latest driver software available for your video card.

Named Network Licensing

Named Network Users run Maple on their own client machines. These client machines are connected to the license server over the network. The Network Named User licensing option allows system administrators to strictly enforce which users, or client machines, may run Maple.

When you install Maple Network Tools, an options file (.opt) is automatically created in the $Maple Network Tools/activate directory.

Note: By default, the vendor daemon looks for the options file (maplelmg.opt) in the same directory that contains the license file used by the license server manager.

Setting up Named Network Licensing

To set up Named Network User licensing, perform the following steps:

Edit the Options File

To manually edit the options file, perform the following steps:

  • Go to the directory that contains the options file. By default, this is $Maple Network Tools/activate.
  • INCLUDE lines in an options file state which users can run the product. Add an INCLUDE line for each product. If there is more than one user per product, add an INCLUDE line for each user, as well. Alternatively, you can use the GROUP syntax to combine authorized Named Users for a specific product.
Example 1: Specifying which users can run Maple

INCLUDE Maple USER User1

INCLUDE Maple USER User2

INCLUDE Maple USER User3

INCLUDE Maple USER User4

INCLUDE MapleExcel USER User4

Example 2: Using GROUP syntax to specify users that can run Maple

GROUP Maple_users User1 User2 User3 User4

INCLUDE Maple GROUP Maple_users

INCLUDE MapleExcel USER User4

Restart the License Manager

You must restart the license manager for the changes to the options file to take effect.

How to Execute Commands Automatically

You can configure Maple to automatically execute a series of commands on start up. This approach is especially useful for setting global variables such as Digits and Order. To do this, create a Maple initialization file. For more information, refer to ?worksheet/reference/initialization in the Maple Help System.

How to Change Launch Options for Standard Interface on Windows

The Standard Worksheet interface reads the ini file launch.ini, if present, located either in the bin.X86_64_WINDOWS subfolder or the bin.win subfolder of your Maple 2022 installation. The directives recognized are as follows. (To include a comment, specify a pound character (#) as the first character in the line. Ensure that you do not enter any space characters before the pound character.)

# set maximum Java heap size
maxheap=700m
# additional args to pass to Java
java_args=-Dfoo -Dbar
# additional args to pass to Maple
maple_args=-q
# popup dialog showing the startup command (for debugging)
showcmd=true
# enable the Java access bridge (accessibility)
jaccess=true
# disable directX
java2d_nodraw=true
# set default language
language=Fr
# set default browser
browser="c:/Netscape"
