Thanks. This is what I am doing. If we just look at the blas binding, I've =
unzipped the contents in this directory:

E:\learnsof\ada\Ada_BLAS>

I have ACML installed in:

C:\AMD\acml4.4.0\

Before that I put the ACML folder in the windows environment path and also =
the current folder of the blas in the path. Just to be sure, I again do thi=
s when I am at the command prompt:

E:\learnsof\ada\Ada_BLAS>PATH=3D"C:\AMD\acml4.4.0\ifort32\lib\libacml_dll.l=
ib";"E:\learnsof\ada\Ada_BLAS";%PATH%

Then I run

E:\learnsof\ada\Ada_BLAS>gnatmake example1.adb -largs -L. -lacml
gnatbind -x example1.ali
gnatlink example1.ali -lblas -L. -lacml
c:/gnat/2011/bin/../libexec/gcc/i686-pc-mingw32/4.5.3/ld.exe: cannot find -=
lacml

collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
gnatlink: error when calling C:\GNAT\2011\bin\gcc.exe
gnatmake: *** link failed.

And it complains that it cannot find -lacml


I have 2 questions (not related to windows hopefully):

1. You issued the command:

gnatmake example1.adb -largs -lada_blas -lacml=20

About the -lada_blas, is ada_blas the FOLDER name for the blas binding? I u=
se -l. after getting into the directory of my Ada_BLAS so that the current =
directory is specified with the dot "." .

2. I have been looking at the ACML manual but cannot find good information.=
 Under Linux, do you have a method to test that your ACML is working withou=
t using it like above with gnatmake? For me -lacml was not recognised and I=
 do not have a way to know if my ACML is installed correctly or not?

Thanks.
