Precompiling RxInfer v3 & graphppl v4

[adammanoogian]

Hello,

A bit new to Julia / its pkg manager so excuse me if this comes off naive. Cannot get the Rxinfer v3 package up and running as it runs into a precompile error. I've tried clearing my compile folder, deleting the previous graphPPL package I had installed, and setup a new environment containing only RxInfer v3. And continue running into the same error. Please see the code below:

Hey @adammanoogian , thanks for trying out RxInfer! For me, on a clean install of Julia and on a temporary environment, RxInfer compiles and I can run your code. I'm on Julia 1.10. Can you share some more details? Maybe call ] activate and then st in the REPL to see what is in your root environment? Unfortunately this isn't enough information for me to diagnose the problem.

Hi Wouter,

Thank you for your help. I did fix my issue but sorry I didn't properly diagnose. I think it was a combination of some dependent packages being out of date that I couldn't quite figure out how to resolve, and perhaps having julia 1.9. But after a clean reinstall, all running fine now.

Perfect! Good to hear
