Fortran 77 - 90 coexistence on the same system

Hi everybody.

I've got the following issue. I need to install Fortran 77 on a HP-UX 11.00 system where Fortran 90 is already installed.
Are there any problems in doing that? Will I experience any issue by having those 2 versions installed at the same time on the same machine?

Thanks in advance for your help

Regards

Paolo

Re: Fortran 77 - 90 coexistence on the same system

Paolo,

I had a similar situation when we first installed fortran90. The dubious programmers wanted to keep the old version for a while. If I recall correctly, they should install in separate directories. I believe fortran90 is already installed in /opt/fortran90 and fortran77 will install in /opt/fortran, but double check the target directory when you install to make sure. Other than making sure that you don't overlay one with the other, it's a simple matter of selecting the correct path when compiling. There should be no conflicts at all.

Re: Fortran 77 - 90 coexistence on the same system

The HP Fortran 77 and 90 compilers install
into /opt/fortran and /opt/fortran90
respectively. There is no problem with
having both the the same system.
