[Help-gsl] Re: Help with porting GSL to CUDA

[Mahesh Narayanamurthi]

Hello,

My friends and I are trying to make a port of GSL onto NVIDIA CUDA platform.
We first started with segregating files and folders from the source tree so
that we got a closed set - only to support Matrix and Vectors for the time
being. Following that we have made suitable changes to configure.ac and
Makefile.am such that, we are now able to compile the sources using NVCC and
we patched the libtool script file a bit to generate the shared library
consisting of only those files we have extracted from the original archive.
To test the generated library file, we wrote a fairly trivial program that
worked with vectors. Now, when I am trying to link the new program with the
library we have generated, we are getting the following error:

test1.o: In function `main':
test1.c:(.text+0x20): undefined reference to `gsl_vector_alloc'
test1.c:(.text+0x2f): undefined reference to `gsl_vector_alloc'
test1.c:(.text+0x43): undefined reference to `gsl_vector_set_all'
test1.c:(.text+0x58): undefined reference to `gsl_vector_set_all'
test1.c:(.text+0x73): undefined reference to `gsl_vector_get'
test1.c:(.text+0x88): undefined reference to `gsl_vector_get'
test1.c:(.text+0xc9): undefined reference to `gsl_vector_add'

On my communications with Dr. Brian Gough, I was advised to write to the
address@hidden

What could be going wrong here?

Thanks & Cheers!
