Building OpenBLAS and LAPACK is very easy. I used TDM-GCC for Win64. It's just two makefile (not even a configure script). OpenBLAS and LAPACK are probably the easiest libraries to build there is. The main problem for using OpenBLAS with NumPy and SciPy on Windows is that Python 2.7 from www.python.org does not ship with libpython27.a for 64-bit Python, so we need to maintain our own. Also, GNU compilers are required to build OpenBLAS. This means we have to build our own libgfortran as well. The binary is incompatible with the MSVC runtime we use. I.e. not impossible, but painful. http://mail.scipy.org/pipermail/numpy-discussion/2012-August/063740.html Sturla _______________________________________________ NumPy-Discussion mailing list NumPy-Discussion@scipy.org http://mail.scipy.org/mailman/listinfo/numpy-discussion
