Re: [TRNSYS-users] Question about related software (the demandedversion of fortran)

["Matt Duffy" <duffy@tess-inc.com>]

Dear Artemi Spanaki,

A Fortran compiler is indeed necessary to compile a DLL.  If you do not
have a compiler, I recommend finding CVF 6.6, or go to Intel's website to
purchase and download their IVF 10.x. I do not know of anyone who has luck
compiling with G77 for TRNSYS, no?

I believe that IVF also includes Visual Studio to answer your next question.

Best regards,

Matt Duffy

Dear Matt Duffy and TRNYS users,

I really appreciate your important advices, related with adding a new
component in
Fortran and updating trnsys. I would like to ask you some things further.

1. Is the installation of Compaq Visual Fortran 6.6 necessary for the
creation of
dll? In manual 1 the chapter "1.9.2. Generating a Fortran code skeleton and a
compiler project" (page 76) describes the following: "Generate a project
that you
can open in the Compaq Visual Fortran 6.6 compiler or in the Intel Visual
Fortran
compiler. That project includes all the settings you need in order to
generate an
external DLL that will be placed in the \UserLib folder, where TRNSYS will
be able
to load your Type..The following will assume that Compaq Visual Fortran
6.6 is
installed on your machine.''

2. On the settings of simulation studio, on the Directories card, some
folders are
set by default. For fortran environment a file named 'dfdev.exe' is set on
the
'Microsoft visual studio' folder. On my PC there is not such a folder, in
spite that
this is set by default on the directories card, in settings. Is the
software named
'Microsoft visual studio' demanded in order to run the compiler of
fortran? If it is
really necessary, which version is associable (comparative) to the version
16 of
trnsys? I tried to add on this forder the fortran g77, but it didn't work
either.

Thank you very much.
Your advices are really helpful to me and I really appreciate your reply.

Yours sincerely

Artemi Spanaki
