I’m trying to push to get Flang easier to try out by default, but I could use some support convincing a few people. If you want to see this happen any time soon, please leave a comment here: [image] Reviving rename flang-new to flang Subprojects …

A question for both @everythingfunctional and @FortranFan . Reading the thread linked by @everythingfunctional , I get the impression that release of a working version of Flang will be delayed until NON_STANDARD features like openMP and openACC are completed. I’m basing this on the following quote by …

[image] FortranFan: Something is seriously amiss I have thoughts, but I’m trying to be diplomatic. [image] rwmsu: Is my interpretation of the priorities of the flang developers correct? To a degree yes. The priority is, and has always been, to produce a compiler that existing code bas…

FYI, I have officially submitted this change. Crossing my fingers it can be accepted. :crossed_fingers: https://reviews.llvm.org/D143592

Yep, sorry for the mistake. I’ve corrected it.

Just to be clear, I need as many potential flang users as possible to please publicly voice their support for this. Without that I’m worried the few opposing voices (most of whom are developing a competing commercial product by the way) will be able to continue to deny/delay this change. So please, …

Oh my! The LLVM flang project is 100% open source. You can take it and build it. There are no restrictions beyond the Apache 2.0 license with LLVM modifications. There’s a driver. There’s a runtime library. There’s an active development community that has pushed 10 commits just today – about p…

@Steve welcome to the Fortran forum! It’s been a long time we talked. Thanks for the information. If you want to collaborate, let me know, I am always interested!

Yo! Hi @certik ! LFortran is looking pretty sweet. Have you thought about adopting the flang runtime? I think it has a pretty spiffy format parser.

Thanks @Steve , that’s timely! We don’t have a format parser yet, I was putting the job off, but now it’s time to do it. Let me have a look.

FWIW, NVIDIA’s contributions are 100% focused on implementing standard Fortran. On an unrelated note, I’m happy to hear about NVIDIA’s contributions. I’ve seen them post nvfortran is waiting for llvm-flang to be complete before nvfortran makes significant standard-adopting changes, but it wasn’t …
