    I saw some good articles you wrote using MC++.NET, so I am not surprised that you are interested in this. Think this, the code you have written in MC++ get straight compiled to MFC/ATL with VERY minor changes (one new namespace and a few includes). Wouldn't that be fun? // Fazlul

      Which begs the question... Never mind, i'll work this one out for myself:      Got-it. Been a long time now since I did any html. I'd rather be writing regular expressions. :rolleyes: Cheers, Robert. sonork ID: 100.9940

            Woohoo! - Fortran for Microsoft.NET. I've been waiting months for someone to write something about Fortran and .NET! Ah - the heady days of 10 page long subroutines and variables names such as aax are here again... cheers, Chris Maunder

              Fortran is the language that I personally used to get on programming back in early eighties. I still can remember those days when programming was a real pain in the neck. We used to submit our Fortran77 routines in a homongous 10(?) inch diskette to our mainframe administrator and when we got the output some 12 hours later, it was often a huge list of compiler errors. Things however got better later when PC replaced mainframe and C++ invaded engineering apps. Other than familiarity with a once popular language sysntax, I wonder why people would be interested in using Fortran.NET? The reason Fortran and other Fortran-like C++ compilers (e.g. Blitz++) are so popular is that they all use highly optimized, blazing fast native compilers. I wonder how hardcore Fortran developers will feel when they will be asked to leave their world class compilers behind and instead compile their programs with a much sluggish managed framework. // Fazlul

                  and variables names such as aax are here again... FORTRAN gave us all one good thing, defacto standard names for our loop counters... for (int i = 0; i < .....) *for (int j = 0; j < .....) **for (int k = 0; k < .....) Who ever wondered why we use i, then j, then k etc ? (I'm assuming this is not mentioned in K&R, having never read them) *Ok, so what's the html tag for a tab ? sonork ID: 100.9940

                  The other thing that you can do is wrap the text that you want to have a tab in the 'pre' tag: <pre>     Hello World! </pre>

                  Hello World!
                  

                  As you may or may not know, pre preserves whitespace formatting for you. Chris has some special stylesheet properties for the pre tag, obviously, but the text is still tabbed. Jamie Nordmeyer Portland, Oregon, USA

                    If Fortran was included and integrated into VS so one could easily call Fortran routines from C++ and vise-versa would be really cool for me. I have a *large* collection of FORTRAN/C++ routines which I currently use in this manner with gcc. It would be nice to use this stuff on Win32 as well. Anybody used Fortran-90 ?

                    Heaven help you if you are trying to call Fortran routines from C++, and vice versa. It seems just about every data type is passed or interpereted differently between the languages (strings are the worst.) If you don't get it *exactly* right, you are toast. X| X| X| There is (or was) a Fortran compiler that did integrate right into Visual Studio (I believe it was Digital/Compaq Fortran). But that didn't help the problems above. The early bird may get the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese.

This is the whole point of Fortran .NET. Not only can you call Fortran functions from C++ (and vice versa) but you can create a C++ class that inherits from a Fortran class. I spent way too many of my finest years battling to get Fortran and C to talk to one another. cheers, Chris Maunder
