NAME

fortran-2.eclass - Simplify fortran compiler management

DESCRIPTION

If you need a fortran compiler, then you should be inheriting this eclass. In case you only need optional support, please export FORTRAN_NEEDED before inheriting the eclass.

The eclass tests for working fortran compilers and exports the variables FC and F77. Optionally, it checks for extended capabilities based on the variable options selected in the ebuild The only phase function exported is fortran-2_pkg_setup.

EXAMPLE

FORTRAN_NEEDED="lapack fortran"

inherit fortran-2

FORTRAN_NEED_OPENMP=1

FUNCTIONS

fortran-2_pkg_setup: Setup functionallity, checks for a valid fortran compiler and optionally for its openmp support.

ECLASS VARIABLES

FORTRAN_NEED_OPENMP ?= 0

Set to "1" in order to automatically have the eclass abort if the fortran compiler lacks openmp support.

FORTRAN_STANDARD ?= 77

Set this, if a special dialect needs to be supported. Generally not needed as default is sufficient.

Valid settings are any combination of: 77 90 95 2003

FORTRAN_NEEDED ?= always

If your package has an optional fortran support, set this variable to the space seperated list of USE triggering the fortran dependence.

e.g. FORTRAN_NEEDED=lapack would result in

DEPEND="lapack? ( virtual/fortran )"

If unset, we always depend on virtual/fortran.
