Re: comment and IBM xlf

I have Fortran 90 code and want to include a file (config.h) with

10.1 Compiler I get the following error messages:

I am pretty sure that the C preprocessor processes C comments, so it
seems that the compiler is looking at it before passing it to cpp.

You might try running cpp separately, and then sending the output
to XLF. I don't know if Fortran continuation lines will survive cpp,
though.

Try man cpp on a unix system.
