[Trilinos-Users] Windows port and pamgen

[Heroux, Michael A]

We need to be careful with GPL code.  We can't include it in Trilinos proper since GPL copylefting is stronger than LGPL.

Using f2c with the Fortran code, followed by some cleanup is probably the best path.  Jim Willenbring has done this with other functions in Trilinos with success.

Bill,

Alternatively, you could use the C source from glibc. It's available from
http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/glibc/, and is GPL.
