passing fortran pointers to c++

[MWind2]

I had worked out a cludge more than 10 years ago that I was trying to understand the seemingly different dereferencing still today. Why does a Fortran LOC passed to a CPP function require two dereferences to get the value?

which may point you toward standard options in Fortran toward interoperability with a companion C processor you can use in your C++ code rather than a vendor specific solution.
