hi all,

I observe very strange behaviour of Silverfrost fortran with file manipulating routines. I couldn't spot it whether it was due to my lack of knowledge or erratic behaviour of compiler. I run the following code and it suppose to create the new_file.dat under the folder of current project.

But actually it does nothing. What's wrong here ?

Or, simply, remove the 'stop' statement. END closes all files.

I 've tried each of your option with possible variations. Interestingly it doesn't have any effect on file creation / manipulation, situation remains the same.

If I choose to print the values on the console window everything seems normal ( but I didn't verify it that produced results are correct with problem that I'm dealing with ).

I called your program test.f95, then used the command:
ftn95 test /lgo
It ran and produced the file with the text:" The value"
right justified for 15 characters.
Including a close or removing stop should not be required.
Not sure what the problem is ?
Are you running the program ?

I don't know what you are doing, or not doing, but your
program works for me just as you listed it -

with and without any 'close' statement
with and without the 'stop' statement

I see,

AFAIU nobody but me has encountered such a problem with fore-given code snippet. The intention is simply to open a file write something into it and exit the program. It seems that it's time change the computer.

One more thing , what actually would be to cause the compiler to raise and exception like :
"The program has terminated with an error code of 0"
