    	Hello,
    
    	In reply 1431 is pointed a tool (f2c) to convert a fortran 
    	program to C in UNIX.Is there any tool,product to convert 
    	fortran sources to C in ALPHA VMS?.
    
    	A customer is asking to me if we have (free or paying) this kind 
    	of tool or product?
    
    	Thanks in advance,

2152.1f2c source codeDECC::SULLIVANJeff SullivanTue Apr 15 1997 11:3612
FWIW, the source for f2c is in the public domain and is available via gatekeeper
at http://gatekeeper.dec.com/hypertext/gatekeeper.home.html

Although I see Makefiles for UNIX and DOS, there is no mention of VMS. Also
fwiw, I was able to build and run the program easily on Digital UNIX V4.0. I've
used the program to convert Fortran parallel processing (loops) tests to C.

The C code created from Fortran source is not the prettiest code, but it will at
least get you started.

Your mileage may vary...

2152.2why f2c?DECCXL::OUELLETTEtemerity timeTue Apr 15 1997 13:023
Asking for f2c raises the question, "Why do you want to use f2c?"
There are good and bad answers to this question... expecially since
there's a very nice Fortran product on VMS.
