Hi,

I could not able to find any instruction in the below site to compile from 
source.
http://wiki.octave.org/Enable_large_arrays:_Build_octave_such_that_it_can_use_arrays_larger_than_2Gb

Unable to understand the point available in another site.

Regards
Mallikarjun

Hi,

I don't think there is any package for BLAS using 64 bit integers, so you must 
compile it from source here you may find instructions:

http://wiki.octave.org/Enable_large_arrays:_Build_octave_such_that_it_can_use_arrays_larger_than_2Gb
http://www.gnu.org/software/octave/doc/interpreter/Compiling-Octave-with-64_002dbit-Indexing.html#Compiling-Octave-with-64_002dbit-Indexing

you may also want to consider using OpenBlas instead of the reference BLAS.
OpenBlas has a compilation flag called INTERFACE64 which you could set to 1 to 
enable 64bit integers, though I never tried this myself.

After rebuilding blas/lapack to use 64 bit integers you will need to rebuild 
from source all libraries that link to blas/lapack so they use the new versions.
