[cffi-devel] Linking CL to fortran-77 via cffi

[Liam Healy]

Mirko,

Thank you for this work.  I'm interested in building interfaces to Lapack
etc. using Antik.  In the foreign-array definitions, I have an option
:linearization which can be either :row-major or :column-major; it defaults
to the former.  I even have
make-fortran-array<http://repo.or.cz/w/antik.git/blob/4d37965fa7712b968ac4d2d6dd743b1e707e47c1:/foreign-array/foreign-array.lisp#l206>,
but it's not built out closer to the user further than that.  I will take a
closer look at your code later (unfortunately, too busy with other things
now), but if you have thoughts on how Antik should go, I'd be very
interested to hear about them.

Thanks.
Liam
