ForDebug

ForDebug: A Fortran library designed for debugging Fortran code, especially within pure procedures.

USE OF THIS LIBRARY IS NOT STANDARDS CONFORMING AND YOU CAN EXPECT THINGS TO BREAK IN PLENTY OF SITUATIONS. IT SHOULD BE USED ONLY FOR DEBUGGING PURPOSES

fpm dependency

If you want to use ForDebug as a dependency in your own fpm project, you can easily include it by adding the following line to your fpm.toml file:

[dependencies]
fordebug = {git="https://github.com/gha3mi/fordebug.git"}

Usage

Printing or Writing within Pure Procedures

To enable printing or writing within a pure procedure in Fortran, use the fordebug module.

use fordebug

! within pure procedures
call pwrite(message='hello!')
call pwrite(R0i32=n)
call pwrite(message='x = ', R0r32=10.0, format='(a,f7.3)', file='example/demo.txt', access='append')

Notes

  • All arguments of pwrite are optional.
  • Data types are represented using the following conventions:
    • R0i32, R0i64, R0r32, R0r64, R0c32, R0c64 for Rank 0 integer, real, and complex types.
    • R1i32, R1i64, R1r32, R1r64, R1c32, R1c64 for Rank 1 integer, real, and complex types.
    • R2i32, R2i64, R2r32, R2r64, R2c32, R2c64 for Rank 2 integer, real, and complex types.
    • R0ch for Rank 0 character.

Measuring Elapsed Time within Pure Procedures

ForDebug uses ForTmie as dependency. For measuring elapsed time within a pure procedure, utilize the fordebug module with time derived type.

use fordebug

type(timer) :: t

call ptimer_start(t)
! Perform your operations here
call ptimer_stop(t) ! Output: Elapsed time:  0.000 [s]

How to run demo

Clone the repository:

Clone the ForDebug repository from GitHub using the following command:

git clone https://github.com/gha3mi/fordebug.git

Navigate to the cloned directory:

cd fordebug

Running demo

To run demo, execute the following command:

fpm run --example demo

API documentation

The most up-to-date API documentation for the master branch is available here. To generate the API documentation for ForDebug using ford run the following command:

ford ford.yml
