fpp preprocessor doesn't like # /* */

[sergeyvz]

Hello,

I'm using fpp to compile Fortran-77 subroutines in mixed C++/Fortran code.

It did work OK with other compilers/preprocessors, but now I've got the following error message withfpp from intel_fc_80 distribution:

#error: unknown fpp directive.

This message appears when the preprocessorsreads the following line:

# /* any text here */

Any idea ?

Thanks.

That fpp is accepting only pre-defined and user-defined text macros. In several versions of fpp, combined macro and OpenMP pre-processing was broken, so a recent version is preferable.
If your application requires gcc -traditional pre-processing, that should be supported by the gcc installation required to support ifort (gcc -traditional -x c $*.f, and the like).
