[Help-gsl] Help with gsl_matrix_column

[Paris Kaimakis]

Dear Sir/Madam,

I'm new to the gsl library and at the moment I'm trying to get some 
simple programs running. I'm having some trouble with an example 
program, which is supposed to give the norm of each column of a 10-by-10 
matrix. The example program (taken right out of the gsl documentation 
pages) can be found at the bottom of  
http://www.gnu.org/software/gsl/manual/gsl-ref_8.html#SEC183 :

#include <math.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <gsl/gsl_matrix.h>
#include <gsl/gsl_blas.h>

int
main (void)
{
 size_t i,j;

 gsl_matrix *m = gsl_matrix_alloc (10, 10);

 for (i = 0; i < 10; i++)
   for (j = 0; j < 10; j++)
     gsl_matrix_set (m, i, j, sin (i) + cos (j));

 for (j = 0; j < 10; j++)
   {
     gsl_vector_view column = gsl_matrix_column (m, j);
     double d;

     d = gsl_blas_dnrm2 (&column.vector);

     printf ("matrix column %d, norm = %g\n", j, d);
   }

 gsl_matrix_free (m);

 return 0;
}


I use gsl under Windows (and Visual C). Other examples I have tried 
worked. This program compiles and links fine, but when I run it I get a 
"Debug Error" which reads: "The value of ESP was not properly saved 
across a funcrion call. This is usually a result of calling a function 
declared with one calling convention with a function pointer declared 
with a different calling convention". This causes an abnormal 
termination of the executable.

After commenting out various parts of this program I found that the 
function call to "gsl_matrix_column" (line 19) is responsible for this. 
Is there any way that I can call this function without causing an 
abnormal termination?

I'd appreciate any help you could provide.
