Unresolved reference to lapack95 subroutine

I am sure I am making a very simple and obvious mistake in using lapack95, but I cannot figure it out at present.

Compiling and linking with MKL of the following sample code:

      program test_lapack
            use lapack95,only:ggev
            implicit none
            integer,parameter::x_=8
            integer,parameter::n =2
            complex(kind=x_)::a    (0:n-1,0:n-1)=reshape((/11._x_,12._x_,21._x_,22._x_/),(/2,2/))
            complex(kind=x_)::b    (0:n-1,0:n-1)=reshape((/ 1._x_, 0._x_, 0._x_, 1._x_/),(/2,2/))
            complex(kind=x_)::alpha(0:n-1)
            complex(kind=x_):: beta(0:n-1)
            call ggev(a,b,alpha,beta)
  end program test_lapack

with:

ifort -mkl=sequential test_lapack.F90

yields:

/tmp/ifortzuGiE1.o: In function `MAIN__':
test_lapack.F90:(.text+0x185): undefined reference to `zggev_f95_'

which means the program does find lapack95's ggev interface, but the zggev_F95 is still unresolved. I have checked that both the lapack95.F90 and all lapack95 routine implementations are in place, at /opt/intel/compilers_and_libraries_2016.3.210/linux/mkl/include and /opt/intel/compilers_and_libraries_2016.3.210/linux/mkl/interfaces/lapack95/source respectively. So it appears I am just missing on how to link the lapack95 implementation with its interface, or whatnot.

The -mkl compiler flag does not pull in any Lapack95 or BLAS95 routines. That is why you have to specify the xx95 libraries explicitly.

Note that your command line in #4 specifies the static library for Lapack95. Most of the time, I prefer to use the shared library, so the flag for me would be -lmkl_lapack95_lp64 .

You must specify that the mkl_lapack95 library is to be used at link time. This library wraps the F77 Lapack routines with F95 interfaces. For more details, consult the MKL Link Line Advisor.

Yes, please refer to https://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/intel-mkl-link-line-advisor

for example, if 64bit application, you can try 

ifort  ${MKLROOT}/lib/intel64/libmkl_blas95_lp64 ${MKLROOT}/lib/intel64/libmkl_lapack95_lp64 -mkl=sequential test_lapack.F90

Thanks, I have been working my link line, using the link line advisor and modifying my own line accordingly. Thought ifort mkl performed super dynamic linking with no paths at all, but I was wrong. Well at least as the 95 interface is concerned. I could still use the ordinary F77 call but I wanted something more robust and reusable, especially when my real simulation (it is shown in this sample too) I use a globally adjustable precision. Thanks again for your help, both of you, and for the simple and demonstrative link line example.

EDIT

In particular, from link advisor:

ifort test_lapack.F90 ${MKLROOT}/lib/intel64_lin/libmkl_lapack95_lp64.a -lpthread -lm -ldl -I${MKLROOT}/include/intel64/lp64 -mkl=sequential

A simplified version (used with a well-setup ifort isntallation):

ifort test_lapack.F90 ${MKLROOT}/lib/intel64_lin/libmkl_lapack95_lp64.a -mkl=sequential

Awesome! Before posting this thread, I did try -lmkl_lapack95, which was getting me nowhere, and thus I posted it. I was missing the _lp64 suffix for integer specification! Many thanks again for the pointers, usage of the shared library (and in general as a much cross-platform command as possible) is my preference too.
