kono
parents:
diff changeset
65
kono
parents:
diff changeset
66 The @command{gfortran} command supports all the options supported by the
kono
parents:
diff changeset
67 @command{gcc} command. Only options specific to GNU Fortran are documented
kono
parents:
diff changeset
68 here.
kono
parents:

69
kono
parents:
diff changeset
70 @xref{Invoking GCC,,GCC Command Options,gcc,Using the GNU Compiler
kono
parents:
diff changeset
71 Collection (GCC)}, for information
kono
parents:
diff changeset
72 on the non-Fortran-specific aspects of the @command{gcc} command (and,
kono
parents:
diff changeset
73 therefore, the @command{gfortran} command).
kono
parents:
diff changeset
74
kono
parents:
diff changeset
75 @cindex options, negative forms
kono
parents:
diff changeset
76 All GCC and GNU Fortran options
kono
parents:
diff changeset
77 are accepted both by @command{gfortran} and by @command{gcc}
kono
parents:
diff changeset
78 (as well as any other drivers built at the same time,
kono
parents:
diff changeset
79 such as @command{g++}),
kono
parents:
diff changeset
80 since adding GNU Fortran to the GCC distribution
kono
parents:
diff changeset
81 enables acceptance of GNU Fortran options
kono
parents:
diff changeset
82 by all of the relevant drivers.
kono
parents:
diff changeset
83
kono
parents:
diff changeset
84 In some cases, options have positive and negative forms;
kono
parents:
diff changeset
85 the negative form of @option{-ffoo} would be @option{-fno-foo}.
kono
parents:
diff changeset
86 This manual documents only one of these two forms, whichever
kono
parents:
diff changeset
87 one is not the default.

725
kono
parents:

726 You should be prepared for side effects when using @option{-C}; it causes

parents:
diff changeset
727 the preprocessor to treat comments as tokens in their own right. For example,
kono
parents:
diff changeset
728 comments appearing at the start of what would be a directive line have the
kono
parents:
diff changeset
729 effect of turning that line into an ordinary source line, since the first

kono

kono
parents:
diff changeset
742 In addition to the side-effects of the @option{-C} option, the @option{-CC}
kono
parents:
diff changeset
743 option causes all C++-style comments inside a macro to be converted to C-style
kono

744 comments. This is to prevent later use of that macro from inadvertently

745 commenting out the remainder of the source line. The @option{-CC} option

764 If you are invoking the preprocessor from a shell or shell-like program
kono

765 you may need to use the shell's quoting syntax to protect characters such

770 (if any). Parentheses are meaningful to most shells, so you will need

1456 The calling conventions used by @command{g77} (originally implemented
kono
parents:
diff changeset
1457 in @command{f2c}) require functions that return type
kono
parents:
diff changeset
1458 default @code{REAL} to actually return the C type @code{double}, and
kono
parents:
diff changeset
1459 functions that return type @code{COMPLEX} to return the values via an
kono
parents:
diff changeset
1460 extra argument in the calling sequence that points to where to
kono
parents:
diff changeset
1461 store the return value. Under the default GNU calling conventions, such
kono
parents:
diff changeset
1462 functions simply return their results as they would in GNU
kono
parents:
diff changeset
1463 C---default @code{REAL} functions return the C type @code{float}, and
kono
parents:
diff changeset
1464 @code{COMPLEX} functions return the GNU C type @code{complex}.
kono
parents:
diff changeset
1465 Additionally, this option implies the @option{-fsecond-underscore}
kono

1490 With @option{-funderscoring} in effect, GNU Fortran appends one

1500 Use of @option{-fno-underscoring} is not recommended unless you are

kono
parents:
diff changeset
1502 existing system environments (vis-@`{a}-vis existing libraries, tools,
kono
parents:
diff changeset
1503 and so on).
kono
parents:
diff changeset
1504
kono
parents:
diff changeset
1505 For example, with @option{-funderscoring}, and assuming that @code{j()} and
kono
parents:
diff changeset
1506 @code{max_count()} are external functions while @code{my_var} and
kono
parents:
diff changeset
1507 @code{lvar} are local variables, a statement like
kono
parents:
diff changeset
1508 @smallexample
kono
parents:
diff changeset
1509 I = J() + MAX_COUNT (MY_VAR, LVAR)
kono
parents:
diff changeset
1510 @end smallexample
kono
parents:
diff changeset
1511 @noindent
kono
parents:
diff changeset
1512 is implemented as something akin to:
kono
parents:

1513 @smallexample
kono
parents:
diff changeset
1514 i = j_() + max_count__(&my_var__, &lvar);
kono
parents:
diff changeset
1515 @end smallexample
kono
parents:
diff changeset
1516
kono
parents:
diff changeset
1517 With @option{-fno-underscoring}, the same statement is implemented as:

1518
kono
parents:
diff changeset
1519 @smallexample
kono
parents:
diff changeset
1520 i = j() + max_count(&my_var, &lvar);

parents:

1521 @end smallexample
kono
parents:
diff changeset
1522
kono
parents:
diff changeset
1523 Use of @option{-fno-underscoring} allows direct specification of
kono
parents:
diff changeset
1524 user-defined names while debugging and when interfacing GNU Fortran
kono
parents:
diff changeset
1525 code with other languages.
kono
parents:
diff changeset
1526
kono
parents:
diff changeset
1527 Note that just because the names match does @emph{not} mean that the
kono
parents:
diff changeset
1528 interface implemented by GNU Fortran for an external name matches the
kono
parents:
diff changeset
1529 interface implemented by some other language for that same name.
kono
parents:
diff changeset
1530 That is, getting code produced by GNU Fortran to link to code produced
kono
parents:
diff changeset
1531 by some other compiler using this or any other method can be only a
kono
parents:
diff changeset
1532 small part of the overall solution---getting the code generated by
kono
parents:
diff changeset
1533 both compilers to agree on issues other than naming can require
kono
parents:
diff changeset
1534 significant effort, and, unlike naming disagreements, linkers normally
kono
parents:
diff changeset
1535 cannot detect disagreements in these other areas.
kono
parents:
diff changeset
1536
kono
parents:
diff changeset
1537 Also, note that with @option{-fno-underscoring}, the lack of appended
kono
parents:
diff changeset
1538 underscores introduces the very real possibility that a user-defined
kono
parents:
diff changeset
1539 external name will conflict with a name in a system library, which
kono
parents:
diff changeset
1540 could make finding unresolved-reference bugs quite difficult in some
kono
parents:
diff changeset
1541 cases---they might occur at program run time, and show up only as
kono
parents:
diff changeset
1542 buggy behavior at run time.
kono
parents:
diff changeset
1543
kono
parents:
diff changeset
1544 In future versions of GNU Fortran we hope to improve naming and linking
kono
parents:
diff changeset
1545 issues so that debugging always involves using the names as they appear
kono
parents:
diff changeset
1546 in the source, even if the names as seen by the linker are mangled to
kono
parents:
diff changeset
1547 prevent accidental linking between procedures with incompatible

1559 By default, GNU Fortran appends an underscore to external

kono
parents:
diff changeset
1561 underscores to names with underscores and one underscore to external names
kono
parents:
diff changeset
1562 with no underscores. GNU Fortran also appends two underscores to

kono

1569 Otherwise, with this option, an external name such as @code{MAX_COUNT}

1571 @code{max_count__}, instead of @code{max_count_}. This is required
