Chris@42:The most generic wisdom export/import functions allow you to provide
Chris@42: an arbitrary callback function to read/write one character at a time
Chris@42: in any way you want. However, your callback function must be written
Chris@42: in a special way, using the bind(C) attribute to be passed to a
Chris@42: C interface.
Chris@42:
In particular, to call the generic wisdom export function
Chris@42: fftw_export_wisdom, you would write a callback subroutine of the form:
Chris@42:
subroutine my_write_char(c, p) bind(C) Chris@42: use, intrinsic :: iso_c_binding Chris@42: character(C_CHAR), value :: c Chris@42: type(C_PTR), value :: p Chris@42: ...write c... Chris@42: end subroutine my_write_char Chris@42:
Given such a subroutine (along with the corresponding interface definition), you could then export wisdom using: Chris@42:
Chris@42: Chris@42:call fftw_export_wisdom(c_funloc(my_write_char), p) Chris@42:
The standard c_funloc intrinsic converts a Fortran
Chris@42: bind(C) subroutine into a C function pointer. The parameter
Chris@42: p is a type(C_PTR) to any arbitrary data that you want
Chris@42: to pass to my_write_char (or C_NULL_PTR if none). (Note
Chris@42: that you can get a C pointer to Fortran data using the intrinsic
Chris@42: c_loc, and convert it back to a Fortran pointer in
Chris@42: my_write_char using c_f_pointer.)
Chris@42:
Similarly, to use the generic fftw_import_wisdom, you would
Chris@42: define a callback function of the form:
Chris@42:
integer(C_INT) function my_read_char(p) bind(C) Chris@42: use, intrinsic :: iso_c_binding Chris@42: type(C_PTR), value :: p Chris@42: character :: c Chris@42: ...read a character c... Chris@42: my_read_char = ichar(c, C_INT) Chris@42: end function my_read_char Chris@42: Chris@42: .... Chris@42: Chris@42: integer(C_INT) :: ret Chris@42: ret = fftw_import_wisdom(c_funloc(my_read_char), p) Chris@42: if (ret .eq. 0) stop 'error importing wisdom' Chris@42:
Your function can return -1 if the end of the input is reached.
Chris@42: Again, p is an arbitrary type(C_PTR that is passed
Chris@42: through to your function. fftw_import_wisdom returns 0
Chris@42: if an error occurred and nonzero otherwise.
