Using the Fortran Compiler on the Fatman Server
The current release of Sun Workshop Fortran (f77, f90) is Version 4.2.
To invoke the Fortran 77 compiler, type:
f77 [options | filename]...
Some of the commonly used options are:
| Option: | Result: |
| -o {outfile} | Specifies the output of your compiled code. |
| -c | Specifies that you want to compile but not link. |
| -g | Generate debugging info for use with gdb. |
| -I{inc_dir} | Specifies additional user-defined directory for include files. |
| -l{libs} | Use the specified library or libraries when compiling. |
| -ansi | Force full ANSI support. |
| -S | Compile and only generate assembly code. |
Example:
To compile the program "myprogram.f", you would type:
f77 myprogram.f
If there were no errors, an executable file named "a.out" would be generated.
Fortran 90 Programs:
Invoking the Fortran 90 compiler is very similar to Fortran 77, you type:
f90 [options | filename]...
Additional Information:
Further information about f77 and f90 is available via the online man pages. To access the pages, type on of the following commands:
