Back when I wrote the original ODE DLL there was no way to call functions from within Blitz as you can now - using a DECLS file etc... - so it was necessarily more clunky to create and modify than the newer Tokamak system. I too emailed Russell to see what the siuation was re. wrapping the DLL, and all I got back was a very brief and rude reply telling me to read the licence doc. What a polite chap he must be.
VIP3R : I'd love to see the ODE system brought up to date and completed, and Arkon has done some great work on it, but jumping around bitching about it is not helpful, nor is that list of things that Arkon is apparently not doing (or not doing fast enough for you).
Personally if you had posted that lot up after I made the first ODE wrapper I would have been more than a little annoyed, especially after putting in all the initial effort and releasing it for you to use.
I'm sure you didn't mean it but your initial post has slightly the wrong tone to it.
