Well, I can't make working on fortran easy. I'll be happy to make it
possible. ;-)
Basically you have to create the same byte layout as would be created
by the C compiler on your platform, using structs. This is platform
dependent.
Hi Ed:
But what would make this easier is an example of greater complexity
than the one given. In the one given, all that is being written is a
1-dimension array of fixed length, for which a Vlen is needed. A
more realistic example of how to use the Fortran interface would help
greatly. The C is more complex, and something along hose lines in
Fortran would help.
We are having some data service issues that we are trying to resolve
so I may not be able to dig up the other other things I found for a
few days (and the reason I mention the explicitly linking of -lz and
-lsz is that is not what the docs say).
Thanks,
-Roy
