The EQUEL Preprocessor Command
Use the following command line to invoke the Fortran preprocessor:
eqf {flags} {filename}
where flags are as follows:
-d
Adds debugging information to the runtime database error messages EQUEL generates. The source file name, line number, and the erroneous statement itself are printed with the error message.
-f[filename]
Writes preprocessor output to the named file. If the -f flag is specified without a filename, the output is sent to standard output, one screen at a time. If the -f flag is omitted, output is given the basename of the input file, suffixed ".f" (UNIX) or ".for" (VMS and Windows).
-iN
Sets the default size of integers to N bytes. N is 2 or 4. The default is 4. If 2 is used, the -12 flag (UNIX), the noi4 qualifier (VMS), or the /integer_size:16 flag (Windows) must be used with the Fortran compiler.
-l
Writes preprocessor error messages to the preprocessor's listing file, as well as to the terminal. The listing file includes preprocessor error messages and your source text in a file named filename.lis, where filename is the name of the input file.
-lo
Like -l, but the generated Fortran code also appears in the listing file
-n. ext
Specifies the extension used for filenames in ## include and ## include inline statements in the source code. If -n is omitted, include filenames in the source code must be given the extension ".qf".
-o. ext
Specifies the extension the preprocessor gives to both the translated include statements in the main program and the generated output files. If this flag is not provided, the default extension is ".f"
If you use this flag in combination with the -o flag, then the preprocessor generates the specified extension for the translated include statements, but does not generate new output files for the include statements.
-o
Directs the preprocessor not to generate output files for include files
This flag does not affect the translated include statements in the main program. The preprocessor generates a default extension for the translated include file statements unless you use the -o. ext flag.
-s
Reads input from standard input and generate Fortran code to standard output. This is useful for testing statements you are not familiar with. If the -l option is specified with this flag, the listing file is called "stdin.lis." To terminate the interactive session, type Ctrl D (UNIX) or Ctrl Z (VMS and Windows).
-w
Prints warning messages
-?
Shows the available command line options for eqf
The EQUEL/Fortran preprocessor assumes that input files are named with the extension ".qf". To override this default, specify the file extension of the input file(s) on the command line. The output of the preprocessor is a file of generated Fortran statements with the same name and the extension ".f" (UNIX) or ".for" (VMS and Windows).
If you enter the command without specifying any flags or a filename, a list of available flags for the command is displayed.
The following table presents a range of the options available with eqf.
