[Lapackpp-devel] vc++ and lapackpp

[Do bi <mrc...@ya...>]

I am using Microsoft Visual Studio version 2.0.50727
  Please help me because this is homework and I need todo it to take my exams. Please. I have inserted my questions into the instructions Christian Stimming sent to me:
   
  For compiling on Windows with MSVC compiler:

 1. Install the .exe setup package( I did this )
  but it does not contain any auxiliary libraries BLAS32.DLL and others;

 2. Unpack the tar.gz package with the source code:
  do you mean unzipping the lapackpp-2.4.10.tar file?
  What do you mean "with the source code", where is it?

 3. compile the source code using the provided
 lapackpp.vcproj MSVC project file, which will also
 compile two small test programs. You might have to adapt the
 linker input directories (Project Properties -> Linker -> Input)
 so that the BLAS32.DLL library can be found.
   
  I saw the lapackpp.vcproj, but how do I compile the soucecode with it?
  When I do "Project Properties -> Linker -> Input" what should i do, add a file, which file or directory?

 4. After successfully compiling the DLL, you need to copy the
 LAPACKPP.DLL file to whatever location you consider
 appropriate. This can either be your c:\WINNT directory, or the
 working directory of your actual application that should use
 lapackpp.
   
  Do you mean copying Lapackpp.ddl or addin it through project->properties

General answer to your questions: You need to compile the lapackpp
library (DLL) yourself in order to use it. Obviously you are not very
familiar with the process of compiling a DLL. I can help a little bit,
but I'm neither willing nor able to give you a full-fledged introduction
into how to use a compiler. You might want to consider using a different
tool for completing your homework if you're in a hurry here and if
you're not willing or able to work with your compiler yourself.

Here are quick answers:

Are you really sure this is the only version number and it is the
version number of your compiler? I know of "Microsoft Visual Studio"
versions 6.x, 7.0.x, 7.1.x and maybe higher (8.x?), but *not* 2.0.x.
Additionally, the "About" box will show you the version number of the
"Microsoft .NET Framework", which is 1.1.x here, but that doesn't matter
for a C++ project. If you are really using MSVC version 2.x, then this
is way too old and lapackpp will not compile with this. You need at
least 6.0.

> 1. Install the .exe setup package( *I did this* )

Yes it does. Where did you look for BLAS32.DLL? It installs BLAS32.DLL
into your c:\windows, and BLAS32.LIB into c:\program-files\lapackpp\lib
(or whatever directory prefix you have chosen).

> 2. Unpack the tar.gz package with the source code:
> *do you mean unzipping the lapackpp-2.4.10.tar file?*

http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=99696 says there
is exactly one file ending with "tar.gz".

> *What do you mean "with the source code", where is it?

In the directories extracted from that package?

Like, opening it with your MSVC compiler? And clicking Compile -> Build All?

If you don't know what I mean, then just ignore it. You will encounter
the respective error message early enough.

By "copy the LAPACKPP.DLL file" I indeed mean "copying lapackpp.dll", yes.

Dear all,
   Now that I have successfully compiled lapackpp.vcproj in visual studio, please tell me how to use it in a c++ project. What files do I include, which .obj and .lb and .dll files are needed, and how to create s simple matrix and do some basic stuff.
  Regards
  Donald
