Chris@10 56 <h2 class="chapter">8 Calling FFTW from Legacy Fortran</h2>
Chris@10 57
Chris@10 58 <p><a name="index-Fortran-interface-577"></a>
Chris@10 59 This chapter describes the interface to FFTW callable by Fortran code
Chris@10 60 in older compilers not supporting the Fortran 2003 C interoperability
Chris@10 61 features (see <a href="Calling-FFTW-from-Modern-Fortran.html#Calling-FFTW-from-Modern-Fortran">Calling FFTW from Modern Fortran</a>). This interface
Chris@10 62 has the major disadvantage that it is not type-checked, so if you
Chris@10 63 mistake the argument types or ordering then your program will not have
Chris@10 64 any compiler errors, and will likely crash at runtime. So, greater
Chris@10 65 care is needed. Also, technically interfacing older Fortran versions
Chris@10 66 to C is nonstandard, but in practice we have found that the techniques
Chris@10 67 used in this chapter have worked with all known Fortran compilers for
Chris@10 68 many years.
Chris@10 69
Chris@10 70 <p>The legacy Fortran interface differs from the C interface only in the
Chris@10 71 prefix (&lsquo;<samp><span class="samp">dfftw_</span></samp>&rsquo; instead of &lsquo;<samp><span class="samp">fftw_</span></samp>&rsquo; in double precision) and
Chris@10 72 a few other minor details. This Fortran interface is included in the
Chris@10 73 FFTW libraries by default, unless a Fortran compiler isn't found on
Chris@10 74 your system or <code>--disable-fortran</code> is included in the
Chris@10 75 <code>configure</code> flags. We assume here that the reader is already
Chris@10 76 familiar with the usage of FFTW in C, as described elsewhere in this
Chris@10 77 manual.
Chris@10 78
Chris@10 79 <p>The MPI parallel interface to FFTW is <em>not</em> currently available
Chris@10 80 to legacy Fortran.
