Hello all,

I read some old posts about BLAS/LAPACK linking.
My problem is slightly different. I want to use LAPACK95 interface to LAPACK/BLAS and instead of reference LAPACK/BLAS, I'd like to use openblas.

So, I downloaded the lapack95 sources and tried to generate a static library.
I compiled without probs lapack95, generated the obj files and tried to create a static library with slink command.
I had success to create that library, but now how can I use it ? Just to add more info, I'm using FTN95 express, so I searched in the link option (in the project properties) but I didn't found anything related to external static libraries.
By the way, also the command line is fine for me Smile

The next step is using openblas. I have DLL, and I read I could use something call STDCALL. Please could be more specific about this subject ?

thanks a lot,
Fausto

Have you tried loading the static library in a SLINK script?
Alternatively you should be able to provide the static library as a Reference in a Visual Studio or Plato project.

For STDCALL try searching for this in the the FTN95 help file.
If you are using a third party DLL that contains STDCALL functions then the help file will tell you how to interface with it.
Alternatively you can get a general impression by looking for STDCALL in some of the INCLUDE files that come with FTN95.

The information you need should be in the help file (ftn95.chm) under Win32 Platform->Using the linker.
