24: f\^2c \(mi Convert Fortran 77 to C or C++
25: .SH SYNOPSIS
26: .B f\^2c
27: [
28: .I option ...
29: ]
30: .I file ...
31: .SH DESCRIPTION
32: .I F2c
33: converts Fortran 77 source code in
34: .I files
35: with names ending in
36: .L .f
37: or
38: .L .F
39: to C (or C++) source files in the
40: current directory, with
41: .L .c
42: substituted
43: for the final
44: .L .f
45: or
46: .LR .F .
47: If no Fortran files are named,
48: .I f\^2c
49: reads Fortran from standard input and
50: writes C on standard output.
51: .I File
52: names that end with
53: .L .p
54: or
55: .L .P
56: are taken to be prototype
57: files, as produced by option
58: .LR -P ,
59: and are read first.
60: .PP
61: The following options have the same meaning as in
62: .IR f\^77 (1).
63: .TP
64: .B -C
65: Compile code to check that subscripts are within declared array bounds.
66: .TP
67: .B -I2
68: Render INTEGER and LOGICAL as short,
69: INTEGER\(**4 as long int. Assume the default \fIlibF77\fR
70: and \fIlibI77\fR: allow only INTEGER\(**4 (and no LOGICAL)
71: variables in INQUIREs. Option
72: .L -I4
73: confirms the default rendering of INTEGER as long int.
74: .TP
75: .B -onetrip
76: Compile DO loops that are performed at least once if reached.
77: (Fortran 77 DO loops are not performed at all if the upper limit is smaller than the lower limit.)
78: .TP
79: .B -U
80: Honor the case of variable and external names. Fortran keywords must be in
81: .I
82: lower
83: case.
84: .TP
85: .B -u
86: Make the default type of a variable `undefined' rather than using the default Fortran rules.
87: .TP
88: .B -w
89: Suppress all warning messages.
90: If the option is
91: .LR -w66 ,
92: only Fortran 66 compatibility warnings are suppressed.
93: .PP

95: .IR f\^2c .

101: Default is old-style C.
102: .TP
103: .B -a
104: Make local variables automatic rather than static
105: unless they appear in a

107: or
108: .SM SAVE
109: statement.
110: .TP
111: .B -C++

116: .TP
117: .B -E
118: Declare uninitialized
119: .SM COMMON

121: .B Extern
122: (overridably defined in

124: as
125: .B extern).
126: .TP
127: .B -ec
128: Place uninitialized
129: .SM COMMON
130: blocks in separate files:

134: Option
135: .LR -e1c

156: .BR -I2 ,

158: .I libF77
159: and
160: .I libI77
161: (compiled with
162: .BR -Df\^2c_i2 ),
163: so
164: .SM INTEGER
165: and
166: .SM LOGICAL

168: .SM INQUIRE
169: and array lengths are stored in short ints.
170: .TP
171: .B -kr
172: Use temporary values to enforce Fortran expression evaluation
173: where K&R (first edition) parenthesization rules allow rearrangement.

191: .L -C++
