I need to create and use dynamic-link library (DLL) for Fortran application using Compaq Visual Fortran 6.6. The following code works just fine:

PROGRAM AMAIN1

IMPLICIT NONE

REAL(8):: A,B,S

A = 1D0

B = 2D0

CALL SUBRO1(A,B,S)

PRINT*, 'S = ', S

END PROGRAM AMAIN1

SUBROUTINE SUBRO1(A,B,S)

!DEC$ ATTRIBUTES DLLEXPORT :: SUBRO1

IMPLICIT NONE

REAL(8):: A,B,S

S = A + B

RETURN

END SUBROUTINE SUBRO1

The result is correct:

S = 3.00000000000000

Press any key to continue

However, if I implement the same algorithm using the module, I get inconsistent result (i.e. zero):

PROGRAM AMAIN2

USE MODUL2

A = 1D0

B = 2D0

CALL SUBRO2

PRINT*, 'S = ', S

END PROGRAM AMAIN2

MODULE MODUL2

IMPLICIT NONE

REAL(8):: A,B,S

END MODULE MODUL2

SUBROUTINE SUBRO2

!DEC$ ATTRIBUTES DLLEXPORT :: SUBRO2

USE MODUL2

S = A + B

RETURN

END SUBROUTINE SUBRO2

The result is incorrect:

S = 0.000000000000000E+000

Press any key to continue

As can be seen above, DLL contains only subprogram in both cases (SUBRO1 and SUBRO2, respectively). I have built DLL and LIB files from the visual development environment. The second case (with the use of module) represents the structure of my large source-code so I need to resolve this issue. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

BTW, the same algorithm without using the DLL works well and gives correct result:

PROGRAM AMAIN3

USE MODUL3

A = 1D0

B = 2D0

CALL SUBRO3

PRINT*, 'S = ', S

END PROGRAM AMAIN3

MODULE MODUL3

IMPLICIT NONE

REAL(8):: A,B,S

END MODULE MODUL3

SUBROUTINE SUBRO3

USE MODUL3

S = A + B

RETURN

END SUBROUTINE SUBRO3

The result is correct:

S = 3.00000000000000

Press any key to continue

I was able to log in to Bakhbergen's PC and eventually figured out the problem.

In CVF 6.6C (and the later Intel compilers), when you USE a module that has a DLLEXPORT directive, that turns into a DLLIMPORT. But it wasn't always this way, and the version he has doesn't have that behavior. Before that change (which my memory says I lobbied for), you had to supply a separately compiled .mod where the source had DLLIMPORT instead of DLLEXPORT. When I did this, the program worked. I don't remember exactly which update had this change.

So what he needs to do is have two versions of MODUL2.f90, one with DLLEXPORT and one with DLLIMPORT. The DLLEXPORT version gets built into the DLL. The DLLIMPORT version would just be compiled (/c) and only the .mod used, not the ,obj, when linking the main program. Messy, I know, which is why we changed it.

We also discussed why he is using that specific old version, and I understand the reasons (which I will not go into further here.)

Please find attached the zipped amain2.map and cmd.docx files.

The following command lines have been run:

f90 /MD /compile_only modul2.f90

! Creates: 1) modul2.obj 2) modul2.mod

f90 /LD subro2.f90 modul2.obj

! Creates: 1) subro2.lib 2) subro2.exp 3) subro2.dll

f90 /MD amain2.f90 modul2.obj subro2.lib /link /map & amain2

! Creates 1) amain2.map 2) amain2.lib 3) amain2.exp 4) amain2.exe

Thanks.

Steve_Lionel · ‎01-14-2019

Oh, I see!

Don't include modul2.obj when you link amain2, as that gets you a local copy of the module.

Use:

df /MD amain2.f90 subro2.lib & amain2

Out of curiosity, what happens if you put the module code in modul2.f90 inside subro2.f90? There is really no reason to put it in a separate file. I don't have df, but with ifort I did this:

ifort /MD /dll subro2.f90

ifort /MD amain2.f90 subro2.lib

You could try this (with df not ifort) and see what it gives.

Please show the output of:

Steve_Lionel · ‎01-14-2019

gib, that's what I would expect to see. But I have to think that Bakhbergen is doing something we're not seeing. I know that by the time of CVF 6.6 (interesting that none of the updates were installed) this absolutely would have worked. Heck, there was a sample that relied on it.

gib · ‎01-14-2019

It is very odd.

Bakhbergen · ‎01-15-2019

Thanks, gib. This simple program represents the structure of our large source-code with 100+ subprograms (subroutines and functions). In our case module is used for declaring a large number of global variables and arrays that can be made available within the main program and any routines we choose.

gib · ‎01-15-2019

Bakhbergen, I'm still curious to see the result of that small change with this tiny example.

What does dumpbin give?

Bakhbergen · ‎01-15-2019

I hope that this compiler installed on my laptop is working properly.

When I installed Compaq Visual Fortran 6.6 under Windows 10, I did the following:

(1) Open the CD with explorer;

(2) Go to folder x86;

(3) Set file mode of (x86/setup.exe) to run in Compatibility Mode with XP;

(4) execute the setup.exe located inside folder: x86/setup.exe;

(5) Located the file MSDev98\Bin\DFDEV.EXE Set the File Mode to run in Compatibility Mode with XP;

(6) You can apply all updates as usual;

(7) If it fails to run, make sure that the compatibility mode DFDEV.EXE is set to Compatibility Mode with XP.

After Avast antivirus’s attack I added Microsoft (R) Developer Studio (C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\Common\MSDEV98\BIN\Dfdev.exe) into Do Not Disturb Mode.

Bakhbergen · ‎01-15-2019

gib, I tried changing as per your instruction and making other similar alterations but it didn't work. Would you like to send me anything on that? Sorry my response may be delayed because I live on the other side of the Earth.

gib · ‎01-15-2019

I can't really help because I no longer have the CVF compiler. What did dumpbin give? Do this:

dumpbin -exports subro2.dll > dumpbin.out

and post dumpbin.out here.

I think Steve suggested /MD. Shouldn't the following be the command to make the DLL?

df /MD /dll subro2.f90 modul2.f90

This is the command line I used (with ifort in place of df).

Bakhbergen · ‎01-15-2019

Steve, gib, your time and effort is greatly appreciated. Would it be convenient for you if I give a remote desktop permission to you? I have to go to work in the morning so I need to have a rest. Have a good day.

gib · ‎01-15-2019

I recommend that Steve logs on to your machine, since he's forgotten more than I'll ever know about Fortran.

mecej4 · ‎01-16-2019

Bakhbergen, apart from all that has been said in this thread, please note that applying the last update to CVF6.6C, i.e, an update that would bring your installation to Compaq Visual Fortran 6.6-4088-47D3B (the output of df /what), would still keep your software exposed to the serious bug mentioned in https://software.intel.com/en-us/forums/intel-visual-fortran-compiler-for-windows/topic/274046 .

I think that you should give serious consideration to switching to (or at least verifying with) a recent compiler (Ifort, Gfortran, etc.) before accepting the results from your application program.

Steve_Lionel · ‎01-16-2019

I was able to log in to Bakhbergen's PC and eventually figured out the problem.

In CVF 6.6C (and the later Intel compilers), when you USE a module that has a DLLEXPORT directive, that turns into a DLLIMPORT.
