iso_fortran_env — standard intrinsic module

2 Usage

USE,INTRINSIC :: ISO_FORTRAN_ENV

(The ',INTRINSIC ::' part is optional, unless there is a user-defined module with the same name.)

3 Synopsis

ISO_FORTRAN_ENV provides named constants describing the Fortran environment, along with some derived types for coarray programming, and some utility procedures.

Kind parameter values for specific types are provided by INT8, INT16, INT32, INT64, REAL16, REAL32, REAL64 and REAL128. Arrays listing all valid kind parameter values for each type are provided by CHARACTER_KINDS, INTEGER_KINDS, LOGICAL_KINDS and REAL_KINDS.

Storage units are described by CHARACTER_STORAGE_SIZE and NUMERIC_STORAGE_SIZE.

Input/output units are described by ERROR_UNIT, INPUT_UNIT and OUTPUT_UNIT.

The RECL= specifier for the INQUIRE and OPEN statements is described by FILE_STORAGE_SIZE.

IOSTAT= return values are described by IOSTAT_END, IOSTAT_EOR and IOSTAT_INQUIRE_INTERNAL_UNIT. These and many other IOSTAT= return values are provided by the intrinsic module F90_IOSTAT (except that it provides IOSTAT_EOF instead of IOSTAT_END).

STAT= (and STAT argument) return values for coarray programming are described by named constants beginning with STAT_. KIND parameter values for use with atomic subroutines are described by ATOMIC_INT_KIND and ATOMIC_LOGICAL_KIND. Argument values for the intrinsic function GET_TEAM are provided by CURRENT_TEAM, INITIAL_TEAM and PARENT_TEAM. Types for coarray programming are provided by EVENT_TYPE, LOCK_TYPE and TEAM_TYPE.

5 Derived Type Descriptions

  TYPE event_type
    PRIVATE
    ...
  END TYPE
Type for use by the EVENT POST and EVENT WAIT statements, and the EVENT_QUERY intrinsic function. Named entities of this type must be coarrays. Named entities that have a potential subobject component of this type must also be coarrays. Variables of this type can only be operated on by the special statements provided. 

  TYPE lock_type
    PRIVATE
    ...
  END TYPE
Type for use by the LOCK and UNLOCK statements. Named entities of this type must be coarrays. Named entities that have a potential subobject component of this type must also be coarrays. Variables of this type can only be operated on by the special statements provided. 

  TYPE team_type
    PRIVATE
    ...
  END TYPE
Type for use by the FORM TEAM statement and the CHANGE TEAM construct, and as a TEAM argument for several related intrinsic functions. Named entities of this type must not be coarrays.

6 Procedure Descriptions

  PURE CHARACTER(...) FUNCTION compiler_options()
Function that returns a character string containing the compiler options used to compile the program unit. This function may be used in constant expressions. 

  PURE CHARACTER(...) FUNCTION compiler_version()
Function that returns a character string describing the version of the compiler that was used to compile the program unit. This function may be used in constant expressions.
