A little background: I have Intel's Fortran90 compiler which I used for years.
However, I recently had to reinstall it and found that the key
was no longer valid. Intel did not have the decency to return my emails so I
looked for another Fortran90 compiler.
I found something called FTN95 (British, I believe) but their linker couldn't
find any assembler routines even though they were placed
in the library.
I am in the process of testing gfortran. However, when I compile a module
called MOD_WIN_APIS containing interfaces to Microsoft
API functions I get the error:
Error: Derived type '{whatever}' at (1) is being used before it is defined
I have defined these types in another module named MOD_TYPES which is compiled
prior to MOD_WIN_APIS.
MOD_WIN_APIS uses MOD_TYPES (with the statement "USE MOD_TYPES") prior to any
interfaces being defined.
Why am I getting this error when the types are defined???
Thank you,
Ken
