Reply-to: hurf@ionvax.tn.cornell.edu (Hurf Sheldon) We have some compiling problems compiling f-77 code under fort. Specifically soubroutines are not found from one module to another. One approach has been to edit the files to put the names in upper case. The other ploy has been to concatenate all the source files and then run fort on the whole package. It does so with out problems which leads me to believe the problem has to do with the first pass of the compiler not finding the named subroutines when they are in another module. Is there a way to get around this? One example of our problem would be to compile the ncar source under fort. Thanks in advance for any hints or solutions. hurf Hurf Sheldon Network: hurf@ionvax.tn.cornell.edu Lab of Plasma Studies Bitnet: hurf@CRNLION 369 Upson Hall, Cornell University, Ithaca, N.Y. 14853 ph:607 255 7267 I sold my Elan, got a job in science; Now, no one takes me seriously.

Tho I can't remember the details, f77 does some stange things with symbols. DEC does not claim that lk will link object created with f77. It is unsupported. Tho I work for DEC, I do not claim to speak for them, the above is based on personal expierience. Michael A.

But what I can say is that fort will by you considerable performance improvement at the expense of portability. fort simply does not mix well with f77 or Ultrix C (maybe others as well; don't know because we haven't tried). greg pavlov, fstrf, amherst, ny
