 |
|
I'm using the Visual Studio 2015 extension to compile Fortran into an archive (.lib) file for later consumption by a Microsoft Visual C++ project.
The Fortran project compiles but does not create an archive file. I have tracked it down to the slink command. Visual Studio issues a command of the following format to create the archive;
| Code: | slink.exe -ARCHIVE:"Debug\Win32\FortranApplicationExtension1.lib" @"C:\Users\r\Documents\Visual Studio 2015\Projects\FortranApplicationExtension1\link.lst"
|
When issued in this way, slink just ignores the archive parameter and does not create it. I suspect that this is because of a bug to do with the listfile having precedence.
Rewriting the slink command manually at a cmd prompt to the following will create the file (shortened for clarity);
| Code: | | slink.exe -ARCHIVE:FortranApplicationExtension1.lib -ADDOBJ:file1.obj -ADDOBJ:file2.obj |
Which outputs;
| Code: | | Creating archive: FortranApplicationExtension1.lib |
I will try placing a build step after the .obj files have been created so that I can continue to use Visual Studio.
The bug means that it is not possible to use Visual Studio 2015 to create a Fortran archive project. |
