--- Comment #2 from Paul Laidler <paul.laidler at ntlworld dot com> 2013-01-30 19:58:27 UTC --- Hi Many thanks for your reply and interest. The ClearWin+ function winio@ (winio$ in gFortran) emulates the C function printf that takes a format string then a variable number of arguments depending on the content of the format. The function can be programmed in C on the basis that all arguments are passed as 64 bit addresses until you get to the length of the format string which has a size well below the minimum possible address value. Any arguments after that will also be string lengths. The format string cannot be processed to find out what arguments are supplied until we know its length. The 32 bit length values are passed correctly by gFortran but occupy 64 bits on the stack. However, the HIDWORD is not currently set and will contain whatever is left from its previous use. Nor do we have a null terminator to calculate the length of the format string directly unless the programmer supplies one. Large amounts of code has been written by our users, some of whom are looking to port to gFortran in the absence of 64 bit FTN95 (the Silverfrost Fortran compiler). Hence the interest is porting the ClearWin+ library to a 64 bit DLL that is accessible from gFortran code. Any help or insight that you have would be greatly appreciated.
