Fortran is your friend. (repeat until you believe it) FWIW, that increment has been there since the very beginning. So this particular aspect is nothing new. But there are other aspects of the Fortran layer that are more complicated than I wish they were. Honestly, if I could dedicate a week, I would love to re-do the Fortran layer from scratch and generate (almost) all the Fortran code based on the results of compiler tests from configure. I.e., we already have a fixed set of the Fortran API prototypes; we already generate all the relevant Fortran header files from it. It would be great to generate (almost) all the relevant Fortran function definitions from it, too. That would eliminate a LOT of the complexity in our Fortran bindings implementation. -- Jeff Squyres jsquy...@cisco.com For corporate legal information go to: http://www.cisco.com/web/about/doing_business/legal/cri/
