Hi All,

FYI: I had to make 1 change to the CMakeLists.txt file for huskylib to be able to compile htick on my new system:

===========================================================================

 endif (MSVC)

 message("-------------------------")

Otherwise I get linker errors when compiling smapi (and probably the other modules too):
