[TRNSYS-users] (no subject)

Dear Group,
My aim is to tweak the existing Type25 printer, so that I can dictate 
which connected inputs get printed AND to swich off the printer.

But for now I am concerned with recompiling and running the Type25 source code as a new type, Type202 as an external dll.

Having found the guidance on using the g95 compiler, I must say it 
helped a lot. Additionally, it seems the following fixes where needed 
for the source code:

JFIX must be substituted (this is an intel function which converts all sorts to Integer*4. I used INT().

DMOD is a version of mod that should actually work, but did not. An 
extra function DMOD was set up in the TRNSYSFunctions module. This 
funtion returns the remainder of a division operation.
Alternatively you can substitute it for MOD which calls DMOD intrisically in g95

Tabs in the source code are missleading as they are not the 5 leading spaces required before the line continuation character.

Variable format statements such as
1001 FORMAT(A<maxUnitLength>,A1)
are not supported. I hard coded these, but other solutions are workable.

Questions:
"Troubleshooting Multiple DLLs" chapter in the programmer guide...
what does "the Fortran run-time libraries" mean and where do I find the still lacking libraries and dlls to link in.
The EXE folder contains the release trndll.dll which I have linked as well as loads of other stuff not documented.

I ask because it seems that the problem is that another application (trnsys itself) is using the designated file folder and blocks writing from the type dll.

Thanking you in advance,

Jean

PS yes I know I shouldn't use g95.
