GNU Scientific Library

[emombel]

Hi,

I am trying to install the  GNU Scientific Library but when I try to
compile an example program, I found in the reference manual, I encounter
the following error messages:

/tmp/ccOEfTKp.o: In function `main':
/tmp/ccOEfTKp.o(.text+0x15): undefined reference to `gsl_matrix_alloc'
/tmp/ccOEfTKp.o(.text+0x27): undefined reference to `gsl_matrix_alloc'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

It looks like there is something wrong with the libraries

When I typed 'make install' some errors were detected:

make[2]: *** [install-pkgincludeHEADERS] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/emombel/GSL/gsl-1.0/sys'
make[1]: *** [install-am] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/emombel/GSL/gsl-1.0/sys'
make: *** [install-recursive] Error 1

Turning on or off the Compilation of shared libraries does not help.

Does somebody have some clues?

Thanks,
Enrico Mombelli

Possibly, or maybe you forgot to link with one of them.  It is hard
to tell without knowing what command line you used.

The best thing to do is: immediately after building ("make") but
before "make install", do "make check".  That runs a regression test
and should tell you whether the libraries are correctly built.

The important information appears in the lines above the first "Error 1",
which you omitted.  Do you have write permission on the directories
to which you are installing gsl?

Hi,

I am trying to compile the example program eigen.cpp that I copied from
the tutorial. The GNU Scientific Library was OK but the g++ compiler
complains as follows:

Do you have any clue of what is going on?

You need to link with the library, see Chapter 2 'Using the library'
in the manual
