It is a bug in ifort, but it masked a couple of other bugs in FoX which ifort picked up. In any case, I've rewritten the code to work around ifort's bug, and checked it with Reinhard. The result is an updated version of FoX (4.0.1), available as before from http://www.uszla.me.uk/FoX/source/ -- Dr. Toby O. H. White Dept.

I would like to take this opportunity to inform you about my project to read XML files in Fortran - http://xml-fortran.sourceforge.net I just released version 1.00. While I am not sure it will pass all W3C tests, the purpose of the library and auxiliary programs is to provide some pragmatic tools to deal with XML files. As such, the project offers four different methods of reading XML files: * Reading the files in much the same way as an ordinary text file - a stream-oriented method * Directly reading the contents into a data structure that reflects the structure of the XML file (via the xmlreader program) * Constructing a tree of data from the XML file with essentially the same structure * Processing the contents using "events", in much the same way as the original Expat library. The auxiliary program xmlreader in version 1.00 creates both a reading and a writing routine based on an XSD-like description of the file. It does not read actual XSD files, but the program xsdconvert help converting such files. (The project now also contains a reference to FoX) Regards, Arjen |
