HP Fortran Release Notes (769151-001, March 2014)

NODEPCHK ignored

The NODEPCHK directive is sometimes ignored. The symptom was that programs which use the

directive do not parallelize as expected.

To parallelize your code, use another directive such as loop_parallel. In loops defined with

NODEPCHK, we recommend that you not invoke parallelism.

Compatibility information and installation requirements

This section describes system requirements for the installation and running of HP Fortran v3.7.

Software requirements

The HP Fortran v3.7 compiler requires approximately 573 megabytes (MB) of disk space. The

compiler requires approximately 333 MB of disk space and the remaining space is required for

other components like the debuggers.

Hardware requirements

HP Fortran v3.7 is supported on hardware running HP-UX 11i v3 operating system.

Operating system requirements

HP recommends that you install HP-UX 11i v3 operating system for Fortran v3.7.

Installation requirements

To install HP Fortran v3.7:

1. Start the swagentd daemon if it is not already running. Enter the following command in the

console window: /usr/sbin/swagentd

2. Use the swinstall command to install the desired products from the CD-ROM.

3. Enter the following command to install the Fortran compiler on HP-UX 11i v3:

/usr/sbin/swinstall -x rpc_timeout=9 -x mount_all_filesystems=false

-s /dev/dsk/c0t0d0/B3909DB

Support information on HP Fortran

HP customers who have purchased support contracts can find a list of HP Fortran language problems

and their fixes in the latest Software Status Bulletin (SSB). This information can be found by

referencing the product number B3909DB —HP Fortran Servers.

To display the product number and the release version of your HP Fortran compiler, enter the

following HP-UX command:

what /opt/fortran90/bin/f90

When you specify the +version option (entering f90 +version command), it displays the

compiler version information to standard output without compiling.
