Hi all,
I am new to Fortran and I appologize in advance for any trivia I might
ask.
I am trying to compile some example code written in Fortran77 that uses
DFPORT, i.e. :
USE DFPORT

What is this library and where can I get it from?
I work on a Windows XP platform.

Many thnaks in advance for your help.


It's a compatibility library from Digital Fortran. The equivalent for ifort is IFPORT. If you're not using DVF, CVF, or ifort, then the answer to "where can I get it from" depends on your compiler. Some compilers (e.g. gfortran) include many of the things in IFPORT as intrinsics. For others, you may need to write your own portability module to translate from the versions available on the platform to the interface provided by DFPORT.

BTW, any code that includes the line

USE DFPORT

is not F77. It's at least Fortran 90. There is no USE statement in F77.
