Running a large, Fixed Fortran application that generates plot data. After execution, running the plot routine, again in fixed Fortran. However, when I go to compile in 64 Bit Fortran, will not allow, says has to be 32 bit Fortran compile. Does the OpenGL Fortran callable routines in SilverFrost not support 64 bit Fortran solutions? Any help will be appreciated. Sid Kraft

It is possible to convert your application to 64 bits but you will need to provide more details about the failure that you have encountered.

You will find details on how to convert in the ftn95.chm file under the heading "x64 platform". This help file can be accessed directly from Plato and the Help menu.

"x64 platform"

doesn't appear to be present in the on-line help, or is it hidden away somewhere ?

thanks John C, but it depends which ftn95.chm anaconda you're talking about.
They're not all the same - hence my question, which was about ON-LINE documentaion.


P.S. hope alls well out there in Oz re- the Covid re-lockdown

The documentation is there on-line, you just cannot navigate to it ... which I can see isn't of much help. I will endeavour to rectify that...

Thanks obert, I think I'd already fournd that via a Search but I was more interested in traking down what Paul referred Sid to:

and I can't find anything related there in the online section you pointed me to.
That seems to be (for want of a better expression) documentation of higher-level facilities, which, au contraire to the tea and coffee ones you get in yer better hotels, don't always refresh the parts other Help's might reach, even though all the info there is essential and seemswell structured.
I was expecting to see some guidelines for conversion 32 to 64 bit, a bit (sic) like the idiots guides to switching existing code from F77 to F90/95.

Maybe the on-line documentation and the ftn95.chm (the one supplied with the program install) HELPS aren't identical and that's the reason why ?

John S,

I answered the only question I could in this post !

Explaining how to convert 32-bit OpenGL to 64-bit and obtaining the appropriate .dll's is what I thought Sid was asking.
I know very little about how to answer that question, or even if the 64-bit dll's exist. Dan might ?

Not familiar with anacondas either :)

That link is the first topic in the 'x64 Platform' section of ftn95.chm. It is now linked direct from the main '64 bit compiling' link and contains links to other pages.

The online help is derived directly from the sources that make up ftn95.chm. The source files are identical. ftn95.chm is compiled at a point in time as the release compiler is built. The web site help files are updated more often. The website processes them to produce a slightly different view (adding in the name of a ClearWin+ control for example).
