Packaging¶

Header and Interface Files¶

The header (C / C++) and interface (Fortran) files are located in include/ and listed below:

C / C++	Fortran	Description
`nvpl_blas.h`	`nvpl_blas.fi`	Top level header / interface, that includes all others
`nvpl_blas_version.h`	Same as C / C++ (*)	Library version information. Relies on preprocessor macros only. (*) Can be included in Fortran with preprocessor support as well.
`nvpl_blas_types.h`		Defines NVPL BLAS specific Data Types
`nvpl_blas_service.h`	`nvpl_blas_service.fi`	NVPL BLAS specific Service function declrations
`nvpl_blas_f77_blas.h`	`nvpl_blas_f77_blas.fi`	Fortran-style BLAS function declarations
`nvpl_blas_cblas.h`		CBLAS function declarations
`nvpl_blas_config.h`		Auxiliary header file

Libraries¶

Dynamic library names contain full library version after *.so.

Each dynamic library has a symbolic link which name corresponds to SONAME of the library (*.so.<major_version>), as well as just *.so symlink to simplify the linking with the library.

Example¶

libnvpl_blas_core.so       -> libnvpl_blas_core.so.0          # Just *.so
libnvpl_blas_core.so.0     -> libnvpl_blas_core.so.0.1.0      # SONAME
libnvpl_blas_core.so.0.1.0                                    # The library file

The libraries are located in lib/ and listed below:

Library	Description
`libnvpl_blas_core.so`	The core dynamic library
`libnvpl_blas_<int_type>_<threading_type>.so`	The interface dynamic library

For clarity, the version is dropped from the dynamic library names.
