File IO

I have evaluated another Fortran compiler for .net in the past.

All was looking good, I even managed to get the compiled assembly to run on the compact framework (this is my requirement). The problem was though that Fortran subroutine in question opened files for reading, and also created some files too, this caused the assembly to crash because the IO was not implemented.

What I would like to know is, will Fortran file IO routines run on the compact framework if compiled using your compiler?

As per my reply in the general forum, FTN95 has not been designed or tested on the compact framework, but it is likely you will be able to do what you want. System.IO functionality is used for the underlying IO in .NET configuration, and if you wanted to use any .NET routine specifically you can call it directly using an ASSEMBLY_EXTERNAL statement.
