I am testing if there is a n00b-friendly way of installing & using the GSL (http://www.gnu.org/software/gsl/). The attached proggie will show a MsgBox saying gsl_INIT error, and if you click OK, shortly after you should see another box Success: Bessel function etc...
Grateful for some tests - AV problems etc 8)
Same result here, could not find the lib, downloaded in from Sourceforge.

And it worked then and showed the Bessel value, I hope?
@Tim: Thanks for the link, looks like the latest version. Much bigger, of course, and I wonder what kind of setup problems that means - XP compatible, for example? ::)
Btw what was the name of the tool in \Masm32\bin\*.exe that allowed to extract all exports from a DLL?
JJ,
Clive's "dumppe".
Command line.
\masm32\bin\dumppe -disasm yourdll.dll > lst.txt
or you may try this
QuoteLINK /DUMP /EXPORTS YOUR.DLL
or this
QuoteDUMPBIN /EXPORTS YOUR.DLL
There's one excellent tool set : http://www.ntcore.com/exsuite.php
P.S.: GSL is well documented : GNU Scientific Library – Reference Manual (http://www.gnu.org/software/gsl/manual/html_node/)
@Hutch: That produces a 25 MB listing, not a list of exports
@GoneFishing: Both commands work fine, and produce practically the same output
In the meantime, I found my own routine, see attachment, which produces a plain listing.
Usage: GetDllExports YourDll.dll
With e.g.
getdllexports C:\Windows\System32\msvcr*.dll you can get an idea what the differences between these DLLs are.
Re GSL, the *blas versions are identical but the main lib has been somewhat expanded:
1.8 -> 6.7 MB
3695 -> 4173 functions
Will reflect whether to switch to the new one or not... fight the bloat 8)

Indeed :t
Currently, in the MasmBasic manual I point to another site:
include \masm32\MasmBasic\MasmBasic.inc ; download (http://www.masm32.com/board/index.php?topic=12460)
; libgsl.dll download (http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/gsl.htm): open Binaries zip, and extract libgsl.dll and libgslcblas.dll to \masm32\MasmBasic\GnuScLib\DLL
; define the gsl function(s) you want to use with the syntax of the GNU Scientific Library Reference (http://www.gnu.org/software/gsl/manual/gsl-ref.html)
gslvar int gsl_rng_default()
gsl double gsl_stats_mean (const double data[], size_t stride, size_t n)
gsl double gsl_stats_variance (const double data[], size_t stride, size_t n)
gsl double gsl_stats_sd (const double data[], size_t stride, size_t n)
... etc ...The two pages look almost identical (one has a horizontal line, the other doesn't ::)). Again I will have to test which version works better.
JJ,
Just open the file in a text editor, you get the PE header then all imports and exports.

- reminds me of my favorite (slightly risque) bumper sticker,
"Assembly programmers do it the hard way"
Perhaps it should have a coda, "... because they're stupid!" That's a good idea, women (I've noticed) find stupidity very attractive :biggrin:
To learn something from experts, like you.
And what's wrong to use program like this: http://vortex.masmcode.com/files/dll2defV11.zip
:biggrin:
JJ,
If you don't want the disassembly, don't add the command line option "-disasm".

That is an interesting observation. Of course, we are struggling to make things easier:
2.1 An Example Program (from the GSL manual (http://www.gnu.org/software/gsl/manual/gsl-ref.html#An-Example-Program))
The following short program demonstrates the use of the library by computing the value of the Bessel function J_0(x) for x=5,
#include <stdio.h>
#include <gsl/gsl_sf_bessel.h>
int
main (void)
{
double x = 5.0;
double y = gsl_sf_bessel_J0 (x);
printf ("J0(%g) = %.18e\n", x, y);
return 0;
}
The output is shown below, and should be correct to double-precision accuracy,2
J0(5) = -1.775967713143382920e-01
The steps needed to compile this program are described in the following sections.
( etc etc ... there it gets complicated ...)Now the MasmBasic equivalent:
include \masm32\MasmBasic\MasmBasic.inc ; download (http://masm32.com/board/index.php?topic=94.0)
gsl double gsl_sf_bessel_J0 (double x) ; double x means a pointer to a REAL8 is required
Init
Print Str$("Bessel function for a value of 5 = %Jf\n", gsl_sf_bessel_J0(FP8(5.0)))
EndOfCodeOutput:Bessel function for a value of 5 = -0.1775967713143382920
Compiling instructions see Masm32: What you absolutely must know to get started (http://www.webalice.it/jj2006/Masm32_Tips_Tricks_and_Traps.htm), including step 6
So what would you suggest to make it less hard?
Just for fun, another example - a graphical representation of a Bessel function:
GuiParas equ "Bessel function", x20, y20, w1200, h700
include \masm32\MasmBasic\Res\MbGui.asm
gsl double gsl_sf_bessel_J0(double x) ; see GSL manual (http://www.gnu.org/software/gsl/manual/gsl-ref.html#Regular-Modified-Cylindrical-Bessel-Functions)
SetGlobals fct:REAL8
gsl_INIT
Dim Bessel1() As REAL8
xor ecx, ecx ; array index
For_ fct=-10.0 To 40.0 Step 0.05
SetFloat Bessel1(ecx)=gsl_sf_bessel_J0(fct)
inc ecx
Next
Event Paint
ArrayPlot hWnd, RgbCol(20, 255, 240) ; define canvas and background colour
ArrayPlot Bessel1()
ArrayPlot exit, "GSL: Regular cylindrical Bessel function of zeroth order"
GuiEnd

Well, I have no idea how do stupid defined. Most of us, will called people stupid based on our surrounding and then some people had no idea what we`re talking about, mostly that`s what stupid is. But, when are talked about comercial software, not a hobby in order to understand something, learning the hard way is considered as stupid. End user need something quick, and cheap, something that are hobbyist cant afford to make.
But, when are talked about understand, which mean, knowing the working principle, I dont consider it as stupid.
It`s a matter of perspective though.
I have no idea what they are good for, but the Bessel functions do look nice :biggrin:
xor ecx, ecx ; array index
For_ fct=-10.0 To 40.0 Step 0.04
SetFloat Bessel0(ecx)=gsl_sf_bessel_J0(fct)
SetFloat Bessel1(ecx)=gsl_sf_bessel_Jn(1, fct)
SetFloat Bessel2(ecx)=gsl_sf_bessel_Jn(-3, fct)
inc ecx

Hi,
by github link you can find the latest version 2.5 for Windows, which is well compiled in the latest Microsoft Visual Studio 2017, libraries, examples, versions for both x64 and x32 systems. The only thing, I did not have time to test it.

https://mega.co.nz/#!El5QQCLQ!AAAAAAAAAAA0MuXuJxLT1gAAAAAAAAAANDLl7icS09Y
version earlier, can be downloaded in the second link, there was version 2.2 with libraries but without examples - https://www.bruot.org/hp/media/files/libraries/gsl_2_2_msvc2017_64.zip and https://www.bruot.org/hp/media/files/libraries/gsl_2_2_msvc2015_32.zip
