error: ‘LAPACK_GLOBAL’ declared as function returning a func

[crobar]

Hi,

I'm trying to cross-compile lapack and lapacke for generic powerpc elf format, but get the following error.

Code: Select all

lapacke.h:145:22: error: ‘LAPACK_GLOBAL’ declared as function returning a function
 #define LAPACK_lsame LAPACK_GLOBAL(lsame,LSAME)
                      ^


I'm building with gfortran and gcc. I am using the cross compilers for the powerpc-elf target.

Someone else described the same issue in another post:

Thanks!

I tried the fix in the linked post above but it makes no difference.

In order to get this stage of compilation I have used the following cmake options:

Code: Select all

LAPACKE=ON

# to strip '-rdynamic' flag which is not supported by the cross-compiler
CMAKE_SHARED_LIBRARY_LINK_Fortran_FLAGS=""

# to add target processor
CMAKE_Fortran_FLAGS="${CMAKE_Fortran_FLAGS} -mcpu=750"

CMAKE_CROSSCOMPILING=1

# to avoid cmake testing if forrtran compiler can build executables (which fails because the rdynamic flag is added by cmake)
CMAKE_Fortran_COMPILER_WORKS=1

# don't built testing (I think this creates executables which fail because of the '-rdynamic' option
BUILD_TESTING=0


I'm also using a cmake toolchain file, but I think the above options are the only ones that are likely to be important or unexpected.

Can anyone explain the problem and how I might work around it?
