Re: [Help-gsl] gsl blas question

[Martin Jansche]

The gsl_cblas routines forward to an underlying CBLAS implementation,
for which there's a default implementation (gslcblas) that ships with
GSL.  You can substitute any other library that implements the CBLAS
API, e.g. ATLAS.  However, most of the vendor libraries only implement
the Fortran BLAS API, but not CBLAS.  If you want to use those
libraries, you need a thin wrapper around Fortran BLAS that provides
CBLAS. There should be one on netlib.
