From: AA24000 <AA24@UNB.CA> Subject: Adapting FORTRAN code for linux Date: Mon, 22 Mar 1993 15:43:58 GMT
I have a couple of questions about adapting some fortran code to run
under linux. I am using the SLS release of linux (downloaded from
tsx-11 Feb. 26)and am compiling with the help of the f77 utility
included in this release. I would appreciate some help with the
following questions:
1) Some of the programs I am compiling call routines which return
the system date and elapsed CPU time since the job began. Are there
calls I can add to my fortran source code which will be recognized
by linux? What are they?
2) What is a 'parse error'? One of the programs always gives this
errormessage. The fortran source code looks okay, but I don't know
where to start. I should add, that in compiling another (fortran)
program a couple of weeks ago, I got a 'parse error'. This was
caused (I think) bya problem in copying from my dos drive to my
linux drive. Apparently a couple of characters got messed up during
the copy and the compiler picked it up. Fortunately I could look at
the original source code on my dos drive and edit the linux code.
All worked fine after that. I said before with my current problem,
the source code looks okay. What could a parse error be do to?
Please email me directly at pboyle@unb.ca
