@compat(BLAS.BlasInt(5)) about compat.jl HOT 4 CLOSED

Since this isn't even documented in Julia, I'm not sure it really belongs in Compat; you could always put the requisite BlasInt function in a module where you need this compatibility.

from compat.jl.

I ended up removing the BlasInt conversion call: regular ints seem to work.

The usage was a wrapper for the LAPack routine zhseqr_, which mimiced the Base/LinAlg/LAPack.jl implementations

Cheers,
Sheehan

ccall will do the conversions for you, but you need to declare the correct type (BlasInt) in the argument list. (Int may or may not work depending on what BLAS implementation you link.)

from compat.jl.

Yes I left the declaration as BlasInt, which works in both 0.4 and 0.3
