gcc-fortran-4.3 compiler

#1

Greetings, after compiling a program with gcc-fortran-4.3, the compiler creates an executable file, such as “file.OUT”

I’ve tried t run it under xterm and konqueror (KDE 3.5), but nothing happens!

Shall I do something else?

Thanks!

Is your program expecting some sort of input? It’s hard to tell what’s wrong based on your description.

A quick test confirms gfrotran-4.3 behaves as expected (hello.f95):


program hello
    print *,"Hello World!"
end program hello



kenn@loki:~> gfortran-4.3 -o hello hello.f95 
kenn@loki:~> ./hello 
 Hello World!
kenn@loki:~> file hello
hello: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), for GNU/Linux 2.6.4, dynamically linked (uses shared libs), not stripped

By default, if you don’t specify an output file with the -o option, it will generate a.out.

It seems sensitive to the extension on your source file. This example would not compile as “hello.f” but would as “hello.f90” and “hello.f95”.
