Hi allard LAPACK is a FORTRAN package, and Microsoft does not support FORTRAN. On Windows, you have to use CLAPACK, a C version generated largely by automatic translation. CLAPACK still acts like FORTRAN, though, so you need several special headers and libraries to mediate between the C and FORTRAN environments (you also have to get used to 1-origin array indexing). And you need a couple of "blas" libraries that provide the low-level arithmetic routines on which LAPACK depends (typically the blas codes are processor-specific, for speed, but there are generic versions too).
And as with all Windows builds, you have to deal with the fact that you need separate debug and release versions of every library, that must have been built with the same compiler version that builds your app. So you would have to do a whole lot of preparative work before you could build Hugin with LAPACK on Windows. The resulting gain of optimizer speed would be of little value, since stitching throughput is hardly limited by the optimizer. So in short, you will be much happier if you build without LAPACK. Indeed, LAPACK should be removed from Hugin, as it offers only trouble. There are alternative hgih performance Levenberg-Marquardt codes in C++ (for example at AlgLib) if one really needed to tune up the optimizer. -- Tom On Jun 8, 4:00 am, allard <[email protected]> wrote: > On Jun 8, 12:33 am, Lukáš Jirkovský <[email protected]> wrote: > > > 2009/6/8 allard <[email protected]>: > > If you doesn't have lapack hugin will still build and work. > > My experience is different.
