README file for OS2 version of Ftnchek Version 2.6.1
FTNCHEK (short for FORTRAN checker) is a freeware program designed
to detect certain errors (mostly semantic) in FORTRAN program that
compiler usually does not. It provides many features of the comercial
product FLINT - for free.
FTNCHEK is written in portable C - in fact, I didn't have to change
a single line of code. I have compiled FTNCHEK using emx-0.8f
development environment of Eberhard Mattes in order to produce 32 bit
executables for OS2 2.0 (and higher). My work consisted in producing
proper make file(s) for the compilation. I have seen in OS2 news groups
people not familiar with emx system (and its use of dll libraries) to
ask about "emxlibs", why they need them etc. Therefore I have decided
to produce two versions of makefile and two different executables:
FTNCHEK.EXE is OS2 executable independent of any external references
to emx dynamic link libraries (everything is linked in). Corresponding
makefile is makefile.os2.
FCHEKEMX.EXE is for people that want to save some disk space and
(that is important) have emx dll libraries for version 0.8f installed
somewhere on ther LIBPATH. It saves almost 30 Kb of disk space. If
you don't know why, just disregard this paragraph and be happy with
FTNCHEK.EXE. In case you know, rename FCHEKEMX.EXE to something more
suitable. In both cases enjoy great work of the author.
In case you have problems with executables and cannot recompile them
yourself I will be happy to help you. My E-mail address is:
