If you find a discrepancy between the man page and the +software, please check the Info file, which is the authoritative +documentation. +.PP +The version of GNU Fortran documented by the Info file is 0.5.21, +which includes substantial improvements and changes since 0.5.18, +the version documented in this man page. +.PP +If we find that the things in this man page that are out of date cause +significant confusion or complaints, we will stop distributing the man +page. The alternative, updating the man page when we update the Info +file, is impractical because the rest of the work of maintaining GNU Fortran +leaves us no time for that. The GNU project regards man pages as +obsolete and should not let them take time away from other things. +.PP +For complete and current documentation, refer to the Info file `\|\c +.B g77\c +\&\|' or the manual +.I +Using and Porting GNU Fortran (for version 0.5.18)\c +\&. Both are made from the Texinfo source file +.BR g77.texi . +.PP +If your system has the `\|\c +.B info\c +\&\|' command installed, the command `\|\c +.B info g77\c +\&\|' should work, unless +.B g77 +has not been properly installed. +If your system lacks `\|\c +.B info\c +\&\|', or you wish to avoid using it for now, +the command `\|\c +.B more /usr/info/g77.info*\c +\&\|' should work, unless +.B g77 +has not been properly installed. +.PP +If +.B g77 +has not been properly installed, so that you +cannot easily access the Info file for it, +ask your system administrator, or the installer +of +.B g77 +(if you know who that is) to fix the problem. +.SH DESCRIPTION +The C and F77 compilers are integrated; +.B g77 +is a program to call +.B gcc with options to recognize F77. +.B gcc +processes input files +through one or more of four stages: preprocessing, compilation, +assembly, and linking. This man page contains full descriptions for +.I only +F77 specific aspects of the compiler, though it also contains +summaries of some general-purpose options. For a fuller explanation +of the compiler, see +.BR gcc ( 1 ). + +For complete documentation on GNU Fortran, type +.BR info g77 + +F77 source files use the suffix `\|\c +.B .f\c +\&\|'; F77 files to be preprocessed by +.BR cpp ( 1 ) +use the suffix `\|\c +.B .F\c +\&\|'. +.SH OPTIONS +There are many command-line options, including options to control +details of optimization, warnings, and code generation, which are +common to both +.B gcc +and +.B g77\c +\&. For full information on all options, see +.BR gcc ( 1 ). + +Options must be separate: `\|\c +.B \-dr\c +\&\|' is quite different from `\|\c +.B \-d \-r +\&\|'. + +Most `\|\c +.B \-f\c +\&\|' and `\|\c +.B \-W\c +\&\|' options have two contrary forms: +.BI \-f name +and +.BI \-fno\- name\c +\& (or +.BI \-W name +and +.BI \-Wno\- name\c +\&). Only the non-default forms are shown here. + +.TP +.B \-c +Compile or assemble the source files, but do not link. The compiler +output is an object file corresponding to each source file. +.TP +.BI \-D macro +Define macro \c +.I macro\c +\& with the string `\|\c +.B 1\c +\&\|' as its definition. +.TP +.BI \-D macro = defn +Define macro \c +.I macro\c +\& as \c +.I defn\c +\&. +.TP +.BI \-\-driver= command +Specifies that +.IR command , +rather than +.RB ` gcc ', +is to be invoked by +.RB ` g77 ' +to do its job. Example: Within the gcc build directory after building +GNU Fortran (but without having to install it), +.nf + ./g77 \-\-driver=./xgcc -B./ foo.f +.fi +.TP +.B \-E +Stop after the preprocessing stage; do not run the compiler proper. The +output is preprocessed source code, which is sent to the +standard output. +.TP +.B \-g +Produce debugging information in the operating system's native format +(for DBX or SDB or DWARF). GDB also can work with this debugging +information. On most systems that use DBX format, `\|\c +.B \-g\c +\&\|' enables use +of extra debugging information that only GDB can use. + +Unlike most other Fortran compilers, GNU Fortran allows you to use `\|\c +.B \-g\c +\&\|' with +`\|\c +.B \-O\c +\&\|'. The shortcuts taken by optimized code may occasionally +produce surprising results: some variables you declared may not exist +at all; flow of control may briefly move where you did not expect it; +some statements may not be executed because they compute constant +results or their values were already at hand; some statements may +execute in different places because they were moved out of loops. + +Nevertheless it proves possible to debug optimized output. This makes +it reasonable to use the optimizer for programs that might have bugs. +.TP +.BI "\-I" "dir"\c +\& +Append directory \c +.I dir\c +\& to the list of directories searched for include files. +.TP +.BI "\-L" "dir"\c +\& +Add directory \c +.I dir\c +\& to the list of directories to be searched +for `\|\c +.B \-l\c +\&\|'. +.TP +.BI \-l library\c +\& +Use the library named \c +.I library\c +\& when linking. +.TP +.B \-nostdinc +Do not search the standard system directories for header files. Only +the directories you have specified with +.B \-I +options (and the current directory, if appropriate) are searched. +.TP +.B \-O +Optimize. Optimizing compilation takes somewhat more time, and a lot +more memory for a large function. See the GCC documentation for +further optimisation options. Loop unrolling, in particular, may be +worth investigating for typical numerical Fortran programs. +.TP +.BI "\-o " file\c +\& +Place output in file \c +.I file\c +\&. +.TP +.B \-S +Stop after the stage of compilation proper; do not assemble. The output +is an assembler code file for each non-assembler input +file specified. +.TP +.BI \-U macro +Undefine macro \c +.I macro\c +\&. +.TP +.B \-v +Print (on standard error output) the commands executed to run the +stages of compilation. Also print the version number of the compiler +driver program and of the preprocessor and the compiler proper. The +version numbers of g77 itself and the GCC distribution on which it is +based are distinct. Use +.RB ` \-\-driver=true ' +to disable actual invocation of +.RB ` gcc ' +(since +.RB ` true ' +is the name of a UNIX command that simply returns success status). +The command +.RB ` "gcc -v" ' +is the appropriate one to determine the g77 and GCC version numbers; +it will produce an irrelevant error message from +.RB ` ld '. +.TP +.B \-Wall +Issue warnings for conditions which pertain to usage that we recommend +avoiding and that we believe is easy to avoid, even in conjunction +with macros. +.PP + +.SH FILES +.ta \w'LIBDIR/g77\-include 'u +file.h C header (preprocessor) file +.br +file.f Fortran source file +.br +file.for Fortran source file +.br +file.F preprocessed Fortran source file +.br +file.fpp preprocessed Fortran source file +.br +file.s assembly language file +.br +file.o object file +.br +a.out link edited output +.br +\fITMPDIR\fR/cc\(** temporary files +.br +\fILIBDIR\fR/cpp preprocessor +.br +\fILIBDIR\fR/f771 compiler +.br +\fILIBDIR\fR/libf2c.a Fortran run-time library +.br +\fILIBDIR\fR/libgcc.a GCC subroutine library +.br +/lib/crt[01n].o start-up routine +.br +/lib/libc.a standard C library, see +.IR intro (3) +.br +/usr/include standard directory for +.B #include +files +.br +\fILIBDIR\fR/include standard gcc directory for +.B #include +files +.I LIBDIR +is usually +.B /usr/local/lib/\c +.IR machine / version . +.br +.I TMPDIR +comes from the environment variable +.B TMPDIR +(default +.B /usr/tmp +if available, else +.B /tmp\c +\&). +.SH "SEE ALSO" +gcc(1), cpp(1), as(1), ld(1), gdb(1), adb(1), dbx(1), sdb(1). +.br +.RB "`\|" g77 "\|', `\|" gcc "\|', `\|" cpp \|', +.RB `\| as \|', `\| ld \|', +and +.RB `\| gdb \|' +entries in +.B info\c +\&. +.br +.I +Using and Porting GNU Fortran (for version 0.5.18)\c +, James Craig Burley; +.I +Using and Porting GNU CC (for version 2.0)\c +, Richard M.
