shared memory between Fortran programs

[esterquest]

We are trying to find a simple example of two Fortran programs, one creates a named shared memory area and the other accesses that same named shared memory area.
The opearting system would be Windows 2000, NT, or XP.

We are trying to get multiple Fortran programs to share the same area of main memory.

See reply under DDE in Fortran thread.

We've done this, but I don't have a simple example in FORTRAN. I've attached a VB example you can work from though.

Hope it helps.

I had a hunt around and found some FORTRAN interface definitions you might find useful....

An easy way to do this is with COMMON in a shared, writeable DLL. CVF provides the DLLEXP1 sample that demonstrates this.
