Hi,
I am trying to call the FORTRAN routine ILAENV in LAPACK [1] from CL, using CFFI. It has CHARACTER*(*) arguments, and I am not sure how to handle these. I found a lot of conflicting information on the web, including examples which used C-style zero-terminated strings [2], and others which mention string length as an extra argument to the function.
Any kind of guidance on how to do this would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Tamas
