error 402 - Invalid module file format for SERVICE_ROUTINES
error 402 - Invalid module file format for IMSL


I am porting some code that I'm working on from another Fortran copiler to Salford FTN95 to test it out. I have some math and service routine module files (*.mod) that I need to use. I specified what I think are the correct MODULE paths in the Plato3 IDE, but I get the following error messages when I try to compile.

BTW, nice product. The CHECKMATE debugger already found a bunch of stuff that my other compiler totally misses. And the Plato3 IDE is very nice. It's a simplified Visual Studio IDE....I like this a lot. The VS IDE can get TOO busy for my needs.

Have these files been compiled with another compiler? If so the .mod format is completely non-standard - different vendors implement mod files in many different ways. To use mod files with FTN95 you need to compile the modules in question with FTN95. You will need the source code for these modules or ask the provider to compile them with FTN95 for you. If you are getting the provider to compile them for you, depending on the module contents (if there is any executable content), you may also need the corresponding obj files to link.

The best way to go is to get hold of the source code for the modules if you can and compile with FTN95.

Thanks for your other comments. Checkmate is a great feature of FTN95 see the table here to see just how good...
