[Gnuplotfortran-discuss] gnuplotfortran and g95 on Sun

[Tomasz K. <to...@ec...>]

I tested fortranposix-0.1 and gnuplotfortran-0.2.2-1 on Sun with 
g95 compiler.  Here are results:

--------------------------------------------------------------------
Test computer:

> uname -a
SunOS name.dom1.purdue.edu 5.8 Generic_117350-11 sun4u sparc SUNW,Ultra-80

> g95 -v
gcc version 4.0.1 (g95!) Jul 10 2005

> gcc -v
gcc version 3.4.3

> make -v
GNU Make 3.80

> gnuplot -V
gnuplot 4.0 patchlevel 0

Test results:

1. fortranposix

     required modifications:
       - Makefile: changed "-shared" to "-G"

2. gnuplotfortran

     required modifications:
       - Makefile: changed "-shared" to "-G"
       - gnuplot_fortran95.f90: uncomment line 94
         (why was it commented out?)

3. testbench

     required modifications:
       - gnuplot_fortran95_testbench.f90:
         according to dbx all calls to "fortran_getchar(debug)" failed on
         line 390 in posixwrapper.c:
         if((*readchar=getchar())==EOF)

         I don't know enough to investigate further, so I just replaced
         status=fortran_getchar(debug)

         with
         read(*,'(a1)') debug

-------------------------------------------------------------------

As far as I can tell, all tests in gnuplot_fortran95_testbench finished 
correctly.

Sun Fortran 95 8.1 does not fail on "fortran_getchar(debug)" so this 
looks like a bug in g95.
