Re: [Boost-users] Is it possible to use smart pointer w/ boost.multiarray or bind lapack/blas w/ boost.multiarray???

Greetings Jack,

Regarding smart pointer, are you referring to being able to have a 
smart pointer to a multi_array?  I don't see why not;  have you tried 
it?

As for lapack/blas, you should be able to make calls to blas/lapack 
functions by using the data() member function of  a multi_array.  You 
will have to supply the dimension information of your array, and you 
will likely want to use the fortran_storage_order to initialize your 
array so that it plays well with the BLAS.  AFAIK, there are no 
existing bindings for multi_array to the blas.

Also, if you haven't looked at it yet, you might want to consider using 
the Boost ublas library for your linear algebra.  It may be better 
suited to your needs.

Cheers,
ron
