C++ wrapper for NPSOL

[Heber Farnsworth]

Hi all,
        Because a great deal of my work involves optimization and because my 
research is academic rather than commercial I have obtained a copy of NPSOL 
from 
Stanford which is an optimizer but is not free software.  I can compile the 
fortran sources to get npsol.a but I don't have the C++ wrapper I need to make 
this a dynamically linked function that I can call from within Octave.
        
        I believe such code used to be included in older versions of Octave but 
was dropped because NPSOL is not free.  This makes sense.  However I have need 
of this code.  Does anyone have any such code lying around?  I am not a C++ guy 
or I suppose I could write it myself (my guess is that it isn't hard).
        
Thanks,
Heber Farnsworth
