I'm interested in accessing some MKL functions not currently supported by MKL, by extending neaderthal-native, or at least using it as a guiding example. In either case, how does neanderthal-native get built? Is all of the required info in the POMs in that project, or does neanderthal handle some of it?

everything is in neanderthal-native's pom

and neanderthal-mkl's pom

multiplatform builds are always tricky, but i think i made this relatively painless

what are the operations that you need? @dave.dixon

Probably others at some point too - lots of handy stuff in there. But have an immediate need for nonlinear least squares.

those operations need initialization, state, and handlers. won't be straightforward at all...

...and won't be as easy to use as existing neanderthal functions.

I see what you mean. I'll have to think if it's worth it to tackle that or not.
