Solving Fortran Lapack Compilation Issues

[Takafoo]

Can you please help me I can't compile using lapack libraries and I can't find anyone who can tell me how to compile.

I have blas_LINUX.a and lapack_LINUX.a and I am trying to use ifort to compile my program but I always get the below error. Please help.

In function `MAIN__':
1001.f90:(.text+0x23f2): undefined reference to `zgesv_'

These are the libraries I have in the same directory

blas_LINUX.a
lapack_LINUX.a
liblapack_LINUX.a

I'm not 100% sure, but it looks like you're referencing a variable, possibly a string, and its not defined.

Since I'm not familiar with the library, if I were you, I would find out what that variable corresponds to. Since it is in main, if your library is just a code library, then most likely the MAIN routine is part of another code-base (possibly your own).

If the code entry point is part of the library itself, find a variable/function/interface etc reference and find out what variable it is.

Again, I'm guessing that if you are using an external library and the entry point is in your code, its not a problem with the library, its a problem with your code base.

This is my code if it helps. Live 158 is where I call the function from the library... I can't see where I've gone wrong at all unfortunately.

The ZGESV is a function in your MAIN routine.

I'm not a FORTRAN coder (VB,C,C++,ASM, not FORTRAN), but my guess is that you need to basically declare your function.

I'm guessing that the routine is part of your library. Based on that you will probably have to provide an external reference in your code.

What should happen is with the reference, your code will compile the code into an object file. Then when you use the linker, it will search for all variables, functions and so on, and link everything together into your executable. This is standard procedure for any type of executable code and is independent of the language used (FORTRAN, C, C++ etc).

I just looked up some FORTRAN doc and it said that there is an EXTERNAL keyword. I'm guessing that's what you need to use.

 

[AlephZero]

Your code looks OK to me.

Just putting the libraries in your current directory is not enough. You have to tell the compiler to search them as well.

You need to do something like
f77 myfile.f -l lapack_LINUX.a -l liblapack_LINUX.a -l blas_LINUX.a

Note, I don't use Linux, so that may not be exactly right, but most compilers have similar options.

There should be an example in the library documentation of what to do, or look at the documentation of your compiler to see how to include routines from libraries.

If you are using "make", you should be able to set a variable in your makefile to the list of libraries you want to search.

Ok this thread is old but... At least for gfortran (and I strongly believe that for ifortran too): Never start your first line with "program nameofprogram" where nameofprogram contains numbers. :/ You'll get an error when compiling, so it won't compile.
