I'm trying to improve the parallelization of something and it is beneficial to not use system calls to start blast runs. It seems NCBI only has documentation for doing this in a C++ environment, but not a C environment. Can someone point me to some use cases of the blast library in C?
I've always been told
extern
is bad practice for writing C.you need "extern C {" to link external C libraries.
