How to run *.exe file from Intel Visual Fortran

[SEWON_K_]

Dear Developers 

Acutally, I did migrate from Compaq Fortran to Intel Visual Fortran, 

Original code is like as follows in compaq fortran 

cmd = 'kalmansryu'

call system(cmd)

but it made errors in intel visual fortran. (kalmansry is exe file that was made from Matlab) 

How can I change 'call system'. Could you show me example?

See your Fortran documentation. You have to add USE IFPORT, and note the correct invocation of the SYSTEM function: 

      result = SYSTEM (string)

The returned value is an integer.

Dear mecej4 

I really appreciate your kind reply. Can IFPORT invoce external exe file? 

I reviewed fortran documentation but I didn't find good example and expalanation. Can you teach me the how to use ifport in this case? 

[mecej4]

USE IFPORT is for the purpose of providing the correct interface to the SYSTEM() function. The Intel Fortran reference manual page for SYSTEM provides complete source code for an example of using this function.
