fortran compiler

[web9452]

if fn is fortran 77 source code file. and Version 14 BSD is installed. should this statement work:
gfortran -std=legacy fn

 

[Alain De Vos]

Yes. It does on a .f90 file.

You might to install a Fortran compiler presumably?

 

[web9452]

again the source code fortran 77. That is the reason for legacy switch. good question about suffix. .f77??

can add gcc but gfortran is not available in the BSD repository?

what grouping did they move this to?

 

[Alain De Vos]

/usr/local/bin/gfortran was installed by package gcc-13_5

 

[web9452]

/usr/local/bin/gfortran was installed by package gcc-13_5

so gfortran was in the BSD repository for version 13 but it is not in the BSD repository for BSD version 14??

 

[Alain De Vos]

No, i use Freebsd 14.0-RELEASE-p6.
Quaterly ports.

 

[richardtoohey2]

What do you mean by “repository”?

There are ports, then binary packages - latest and quarterly.

Sometimes a port fails to build into a package, so the package is temporarily unavailable.

/usr/local/bin/gfortran was installed by package gcc-13_5

gcc-13_5 works. It installs gfortran. But gcc-12_5 doesn't work. was 12_5 supposed to install gfortran and a sym link was accidently left out?

 

[Alain De Vos]

Different gcc compilers providing the same file /usr/local/bin/gfortran would conflict. So you could only install one gcc compiler ? Or it needed to be renamed to gfortran_gcc_13_5. Maybe for gcc12 fortran was a separate package ? No idea.
But if it works with gcc13 , ok.

 

[web9452]

turns out I have gcc and gfortran on my system with BDS version 11. a friend helped me find it. are you able to read pdf files on your box with BDS os?

 

[richardtoohey2]

If you install a PDF viewer then yes, you can read PDFs on FreeBSD.

Not sure if you mean read in the human sense or code sense (reading a PDF in a program)?
