However, if you are interested in simply linking your fortran into your Ada code, then you might be interested in trying Visual Ada95. This is an Ada95 compiler that runs on Windows95 and NT and has an interface to Microsoft C, Pascal, Fortran, Assembler, and Borland C. Visual Ada95 is still being finished up, however, BETA copies are currently available for sale. For more information you may visit our WEB site at: "http://www.pcada.com/pcada" where you can get information on Ada compilers, libraries, design & documentation tools, training tools, etc. for the major PC Ada vendors (including: IntegrAda, Alsys (now Thomson), and Janus/Ada). These various products are available worldwide at both commercial and academic prices. Stop in for a visit. If you don't see what you are looking for, ask! We're still building and adding brochures on-line everyday. Demo disks for both DOS and Windows development are available from our FTP site through links to the WEB site.

Please reply by e-mail. > Thanks. > Tim In 1991, I was contracting with GE Astro in Princeton. They had a lot of heritage FORTRAN simulation software to integrate with a new Ada sim. They sent me to the GE CR&D facility in Schenectady, NY to check out a FORTRAN to Ada conversion utility. It was called ENCORE, which stood for ENvironment for COde REengineering. It was not complete at the time, but it worked fairly well. Ran on a Sun SPARC station. At the time, it worked OK with Sun FORTRAN, except that it didn't know what to do with EQUIVILANCE statements, etc... I tossed some VAX FORTRAN at it and pretty much stopped it in its tracks when it saw all of the DEC extensions. They may have worked some of that out by now, or they may have shelved the project - I just don't know. Since FORTRAN comes in so many flavors, such problems will plague any such tool. Another arguement for a single, non extensible language standard such as Ada! Good luck! Bob Livingston PS - We ended up translating some of it by hand, and using pragma INTERFACE for the rest. PPS - I think GE still owns CR&D - I don't think they sold it to Martin ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 3+ messages in thread

There was an article in this month's Computer Languages journal by someone who is writing such a translator. You might take a look and write to the authors. I don't know if they intend it to be public domain or not though. (Note the plural in the journal's name - it is not to be confused with the newsstand rag: Computer Language.) J.
