FTN

     Compiles a Compatibility Mode HP FORTRAN 77/V program. HP
     FORTRAN 77/V is not part of the 900 Series HP 3000 Computer
     System Fundamental Operating Software and must be purchased
     separately.  The Native Mode equivalent of this command is
     FTNXL.  (CM)

SYNTAX


     FTN [textfile][,[uslfile][,[listfile]]]

          [;INFO=quotedstring]


PARAMETERS


textfile            Actual file designator of the input file from which
                    the source program is read. This can be any ASCII
                    input file. Formal file designator is FTNTEXT.
                    Default is $STDIN.

uslfile             Actual file designator of the USL file to which the
                    object code is stored, which can be any binary
                    output file with a file code of USL or 1024.  Its
                    formal file designator is FTNUSL.  If the uslfile
                    parameter is omitted, the object code is saved to
                    the temporary file $OLDPASS.  If entered, this
                    parameter indicates that the USL file was created in
                    one of four ways

                    o  By using the MPE/iX SAVE command to save the
                       default USL file $OLDPASS, created during a
                       previous compilation.

                    o  By building the USL with the MPE V/E Segmenter -
                       BUILDUSL command.  Refer to the MPE Segmenter
                       Reference Manual (30000-90011).

                    o  By creating a new USL file specifying the MPE/iX
                       BUILD command and specifying a file code of USL
                       or 1024.

                    o  By specifying a nonexistent uslfile parameter,
                       thereby creating a permanent file of the correct
                       size and type.

listfile            Actual file designator of the file to which the
                    program listing is written. This can be any ASCII
                    output file. Formal file designator is FTNLIST.
                    Default is $STDLIST.

NOTE


The formal file designators used in this command (FTNTEXT, FTNUSL, and
FTNLIST) cannot be backreferenced as actual file designators in the
command parameter list.  For further information, refer to the "IMPLICIT
FILE COMMANDS FOR SUBSYSTEMS" discussion of the MPE/iX FILE command.

quotedstring        A sequence of characters between two single
                    quotation marks (apostrophes) or between two double
                    quotation marks.  You may use the delimiter as part
                    of the string so long as the delimiter appears
                    twice. Any occurrence of two single quotation marks
                    in a row, or two double quotes in a row, is
                    considered part of the string, and, therefore, not
                    the terminating delimiter.

                    INFO=quotedstring is used to pass initial compiler
                    options to a program.


OPERATION


     The FTN command compiles a Compatibility Mode HP FORTRAN
     77/V program and stores the object code in a User Subprogram
     Library (USL) file on disk.  If textfile is not specified,
     MPE/iX expects the source program to be entered from your
     standard input device.  If you do not specify listfile, MPE
     XL sends the program listing to your standard list device and
     identifies it by the formal file designator, FTNLIST.

     If you create the USL prior to compilation, you must specify
     a file code of USL or 1024. If you omit the uslfile
     parameter, the object code is saved in the temporary file
     domain as $OLDPASS. To keep it as a permanent file, you must
     save $OLDPASS under another name.

     This command may be issued from a session, job, or program. It may
     not be used in BREAK.  Pressing [Break] suspends the execution of
     this command.  Entering RESUME continues the execution.


EXAMPLE(S)


     The following example compiles an HP FORTRAN 77/V program
     entered from your standard input device and stores the
     object program in the USL file $OLDPASS.  The listing is
     then sent to your standard list device:

     FTN

     The next example compiles an HP FORTRAN 77 program contained
     in the disk file FORTSRC, and stores the object program in
     the USL file FORTOBJ.  The program listing is stored in the
     disk file LISTFILE.

     BUILD FORTOBJ;CODE=USL
