switching my source code from windows platform to a Linux/Mac platform

[emms]

Hi,
I just got a fortran source code that used to be compiled successfully on windows using visual studio. I was able to get a free download (for non-commercial use) of the intel fortran compiler and have installed it on my linux system. Unfortunately I still have trouble compiling the source code due to error messages associated to the following routines or modules in the source code:

use dfport or use ifport ( I understand "DFPORT is now just a jacket module for IFPORT.....steve")
use msflib

call sortqq
call systemqq

Also, I would like to know the role of the intel source code in the file "aifport.f90".

Any advice on how to solve this problem would be appreciated.

thanks

Replace the "use dfport" with "use ifport". Do not include "use msflib". "use ifport" will give you access to sortqq and systemqq.

We do not have a file called aifport.f90. We do have ifport.f90 which is the source for module ifport. Typically you would not use that file except to read it as a reference.

Hi Steve,
Thank you very much for your help. I followed your instructions and all worked.
I equally had to change the compiler command from "gfortran" to "ifort" in my makefile. Initially, I used gfortran to compile the BLAS and LAPACK libraries but this caused some compatibility problems with other codes that were compiled using ifort. All I had to do was recompile and link these respective libraries using "ifort".

Ifort provides the pre-built optimized MKL BLAS and Lapack libraries, with both ifort and gfortran compatibility options, in case you don't want to take the trouble to build them yourself.
