This is the README file for the NAGWare f95 Compiler Release 5.0.
1. Installation
Installation instructions and requirements are provided in the file
TECHINFO.
The installation may be tested by compiling and running the utility program
f90_util.f90, which is provided in the same directory as the compiler
library files. To compile and link this program, copy the source file to
your working directory and type
f95 -o f90_util f90_util.f90
(This assumes that the compiler binaries have been installed in a directory
included in your PATH environment variable.) The program (f90_util) may now
be run.
2. Licensing
NAGWare f95 is a licence-managed product using FLEXLM (exceptionally, an
implementation will not have licence management; see the Machine-specific
Details section of the file TECHINFO). If you downloaded it from the web
you will also need to request a licence and may need to download the
licensing software.
Full details on installation of the licensing software and the licence are
in the file LICENCE.
The use of all supplied software must be in accordance with the terms and
conditions of the Software Licence signed by NAG and each site. Any request
to use NAG software on a computer other than the one licensed must be
referred to NAG.
3. Debugger
This release contains a Fortran-95 debugger with a graphical user interface,
called upsf95. It will be installed into the same directory as the compiler
driver.
