I am trying to get GSL to work in a Windows environment for my team and I have a lot of problems.
My team is developing in C ++ in VS2005, and we would like to use GSL. I downloaded GSL-1.15 tar.gz and unzipped it, but I'm not quite sure what to do next - I believe that only two compilers will build it correctly.
The GNU website says that a compiled version of GSL is available as part of Cygwin for windows, so I installed Cygwin, but again, I'm not quite sure what to do next.
Ideally, what I'm trying to get is a folder on my C: \ with a bunch of dll / libs that I can reference in VS2005 to use GSL functions. I know the GSL ports for VS (http://gladman.plushost.co.uk/oldsite/computing/gnu_scientific_library.php), but we cannot rely on them since I will depend on the publisher issuing the port every time it is released new version of GSL.
Has anyone successfully gone through this process of building a GSL and getting it to work with C ++ in VS2005? I did some google searches and did not find anything that I understand.
Thanks.
Brian
