|
Chris@10
|
59
|
Chris@10
|
60 <p>Nearly all of the FFTW functions have Fortran-callable equivalents.
|
Chris@10
|
61 The name of the legacy Fortran routine is the same as that of the
|
Chris@10
|
62 corresponding C routine, but with the ‘<samp><span class="samp">fftw_</span></samp>’ prefix replaced by
|
Chris@10
|
63 ‘<samp><span class="samp">dfftw_</span></samp>’.<a rel="footnote" href="#fn-1" name="fnd-1"><sup>1</sup></a> The single and long-double precision
|
Chris@10
|
64 versions use ‘<samp><span class="samp">sfftw_</span></samp>’ and ‘<samp><span class="samp">lfftw_</span></samp>’, respectively, instead of
|
Chris@10
|
65 ‘<samp><span class="samp">fftwf_</span></samp>’ and ‘<samp><span class="samp">fftwl_</span></samp>’; quadruple precision (<code>real*16</code>)
|
Chris@10
|
66 is available on some systems as ‘<samp><span class="samp">fftwq_</span></samp>’ (see <a href="Precision.html#Precision">Precision</a>).
|
Chris@10
|
67 (Note that <code>long double</code> on x86 hardware is usually at most
|
Chris@10
|
68 80-bit extended precision, <em>not</em> quadruple precision.)
|
Chris@10
|
69
|
Chris@10
|
70 <p>For the most part, all of the arguments to the functions are the same,
|
Chris@10
|
71 with the following exceptions:
|
Chris@10
|
72
|
Chris@10
|
73 <ul>
|
Chris@10
|
74 <li><code>plan</code> variables (what would be of type <code>fftw_plan</code> in C),
|
Chris@10
|
75 must be declared as a type that is at least as big as a pointer
|
Chris@10
|
76 (address) on your machine. We recommend using <code>integer*8</code> everywhere,
|
Chris@10
|
77 since this should always be big enough.
|
Chris@10
|
78 <a name="index-portability-578"></a>
|
Chris@10
|
79 <li>Any function that returns a value (e.g. <code>fftw_plan_dft</code>) is
|
Chris@10
|
80 converted into a <em>subroutine</em>. The return value is converted into
|
Chris@10
|
81 an additional <em>first</em> parameter of this subroutine.<a rel="footnote" href="#fn-2" name="fnd-2"><sup>2</sup></a>
|
Chris@10
|
82
|
Chris@10
|
83 <li><a name="index-column_002dmajor-579"></a>The Fortran routines expect multi-dimensional arrays to be in
|
Chris@10
|
84 <em>column-major</em> order, which is the ordinary format of Fortran
|
Chris@10
|
85 arrays (see <a href="Multi_002ddimensional-Array-Format.html#Multi_002ddimensional-Array-Format">Multi-dimensional Array Format</a>). They do this
|
Chris@10
|
86 transparently and costlessly simply by reversing the order of the
|
Chris@10
|
87 dimensions passed to FFTW, but this has one important consequence for
|
Chris@10
|
88 multi-dimensional real-complex transforms, discussed below.
|
Chris@10
|
89
|
Chris@10
|
90 <li>Wisdom import and export is somewhat more tricky because one cannot
|
Chris@10
|
91 easily pass files or strings between C and Fortran; see <a href="Wisdom-of-Fortran_003f.html#Wisdom-of-Fortran_003f">Wisdom of Fortran?</a>.
|
Chris@10
|
92
|
Chris@10
|
93 <li>Legacy Fortran cannot use the <code>fftw_malloc</code> dynamic-allocation routine.
|
Chris@10
|
94 If you want to exploit the SIMD FFTW (see <a href="SIMD-alignment-and-fftw_005fmalloc.html#SIMD-alignment-and-fftw_005fmalloc">SIMD alignment and fftw_malloc</a>), you'll
|
Chris@10
|
95 need to figure out some other way to ensure that your arrays are at
|
Chris@10
|
96 least 16-byte aligned.
|
Chris@10
|
97
|
Chris@10
|
98 <li><a name="index-fftw_005fiodim-580"></a><a name="index-guru-interface-581"></a>Since Fortran 77 does not have data structures, the <code>fftw_iodim</code>
|
Chris@10
|
99 structure from the guru interface (see <a href="Guru-vector-and-transform-sizes.html#Guru-vector-and-transform-sizes">Guru vector and transform sizes</a>) must be split into separate arguments. In particular, any
|
Chris@10
|
100 <code>fftw_iodim</code> array arguments in the C guru interface become three
|
Chris@10
|
101 integer array arguments (<code>n</code>, <code>is</code>, and <code>os</code>) in the
|
Chris@10
|
102 Fortran guru interface, all of whose lengths should be equal to the
|
Chris@10
|
103 corresponding <code>rank</code> argument.
|
Chris@10
|
104
|
Chris@10
|
105 <li>The guru planner interface in Fortran does <em>not</em> do any automatic
|
Chris@10
|
106 translation between column-major and row-major; you are responsible
|
Chris@10
|
107 for setting the strides etcetera to correspond to your Fortran arrays.
|
Chris@10
|
108 However, as a slight bug that we are preserving for backwards
|
Chris@10
|
109 compatibility, the ‘<samp><span class="samp">plan_guru_r2r</span></samp>’ in Fortran <em>does</em> reverse the
|
Chris@10
|
110 order of its <code>kind</code> array parameter, so the <code>kind</code> array
|
Chris@10
|
111 of that routine should be in the reverse of the order of the iodim
|
Chris@10
|
112 arrays (see above).
|
Chris@10
|
113
|
Chris@10
|
114 </ul>
|
Chris@10
|
115
|
Chris@10
|
116 <p>In general, you should take care to use Fortran data types that
|
Chris@10
|
117 correspond to (i.e. are the same size as) the C types used by FFTW.
|
Chris@10
|
118 In practice, this correspondence is usually straightforward
|
Chris@10
|
119 (i.e. <code>integer</code> corresponds to <code>int</code>, <code>real</code>
|
Chris@10
|
120 corresponds to <code>float</code>, etcetera). The native Fortran
|
Chris@10
|
121 double/single-precision complex type should be compatible with
|
Chris@10
|
122 <code>fftw_complex</code>/<code>fftwf_complex</code>. Such simple correspondences
|
Chris@10
|
123 are assumed in the examples below.
