Re: [Help-gsl] extern vector

[George Kyriakou]

Hello,

Thanks for your remarks. I couldn't realize that I pass the pointers
to the AlterVector function. How should I take a lead on that in the
future? I should be reading the header files I presume.

Absolutely, but this shouldn't solve the problem of accessing
gsl_vector v2 from inside AlterVector, *without* passing it through
the function arguments. I did the following:

-- main.c:
gsl_vector *v2;

main(void) {
    ...
    v2 = gsl_vector_alloc(n);
    ...
}

and sec.c unaltered, and it worked.

Thanks,
