DESCRIPTION

19       flexiblas_load_backend loads a backend from  the  FlexiBLAS  configura‐
20       tion.  The  name parameter specifies the name of the backend inside the
21       configuration. The available backends can be access via flexiblas_list.
22       Except  of  some special backends, like the upcoming CUBLAS backend the
23       backend is initialized during the load. The name of the backend is  not
24       case sensitive.

RETURN VALUE

29       On  success,  it  returns  the  id  of the loaded backend which is used
30       within a later call to flexiblas_switch to change the backend.
31
32       If the requested backend can not be  found  in  the  configuration,  an
33       error is returned.

ERRORS

37       All  negative return values are errors and can not be used as an id for
38       flexiblas_switch.
