I am using Vista. I reinstalled. No luck. I updated CygWin 1.7 again and did a reinstall on the developer package and the base package; got the same result, so I used the "dummy procedure" kludge as a stop-gap so I could test the rest of the code. It's about 70,000 lines, mixes C and Fortran, uses the X11 library, has an interpreter built into it ... so it's not trivial and it seems to be running fine otherwise (there is a basic four-hour suite of tests and it passed). I was pleasantly surprised by this. By the way, I found several mentions of similar problems on Mac OS and other places dating mostly around 2007 on the Web. Since no one else can reproduce this so far, and it works fine on Linux platforms and there are many work-arounds possible I can understand this being dropped for now if you see fit to do so. If anyone else can reproduce this or has any tests they want me to run on my platform let me know. I attached something very similar to the original test code. If I add a dummy routine in the "blockdata" file; and a "call dummy()" everything loads properly. Otherwise, it runs with g77 and g95, but fails with 4.5.0 and 4.4.3 (which it used to work with) so it seems more and more like something is wrong with the loader, not gfortran per-se. Does anyone know off the bat why G77 and G95 would work and GFORTRAN would not? ----- Original Message ----- From: "jvdelisle at gcc dot gnu dot org" <gcc-bugzi...@gcc.gnu.org> To: <urbanj...@comcast.net> Sent: Friday, January 01, 2010 1:35 AM Subject: [Bug fortran/42568] BLOCKDATA referenced in EXTERNAL not loading from library > > > ------- Comment #5 from jvdelisle at gcc dot gnu dot org 2010-01-01 > 06:35 ------- > I forgot to mention I am using Cygwin 1.7, so this is beginning to look > like > some sort of installation issue.
