LAPACK95

The LAPACK95 software can be downloaded from the LAPACK95 home page

http://www.netlib.org/lapack95/lapack95.tgz

and is also available via ftp as follows:


anon ftp to www.netlib.org
cd lapack95
binary
get lapack95.tgz

This distribution tar file does NOT contain an LAPACK library or a BLAS library. Note that LAPACK, version 3.0 or later, is required for the installation of LAPACK95. LAPACK95 assumes that an LAPACK library and a BLAS library are installed on the machine to which the user is installing LAPACK95. If either of these libraries is not already installed, refer to the downloading and installation instructions in sections 1.5.2 and 1.5.3, respectively.

After downloading the software, the user enters the following command to extract the files:

This will create a top-level directory called LAPACK95 with the following contents:

To install LAPACK95, the user should proceed as instructed in the README file in the top-level directory. A comprehensive test suite for LAPACK95 is provided, and it is highly recommended that this be run to ensure proper installation of the package. (Refer to the subdirectory TESTING and [13]).

The procedure for calling LAPACK95 routines from the user's Fortran 95 program is described in Section 3.6.
