directives). XL Fortran for AIX supports the following SMP directives:
-
Assertion directives: ASSERT, CNCALL, PERMUTATION, INDEPENDENT
-
Prescriptive directive: DO SERIAL, SCHEDULE
-
Threadsafing directive: THREADLOCAL
In addition to these SMP directives, XL Fortran for AIX V7.1 now provides
support for the full OpenMP Version 1.0 Fortran API, which includes
support for the following directives:
-
BARRIER
-
CRITICAL / END CRITICAL
-
DO (work sharing) / END DO
-
MASTER / END MASTER
-
PARALLEL / END PARALLEL
-
PARALLEL DO / END PARALLEL DO
-
PARALLEL SECTIONS / END PARALLEL SECTIONS
XL Fortran for AIX also provides the following SMP support:
Fortran interfaces to the POSIX pthreads library — The POSIX Library
Module is a Fortran 90 module that defines data types and routines
designed to make it easier to interface with the AIX pthreads library.
Use the AIX pthreads library to make code parallel and threadsafe.
The prescriptive SMP directives provided in XL Fortran for AIX (PARALLEL
DO, PARALLEL SECTIONS / END PARALLEL SECTIONS, and CRITICAL / END
CRITICAL) are based on the OpenMP specification.
64-Bit Support
XL Fortran for AIX provides 64-bit pointer and 64-bit addressability
support for SMP and serial codes. High optimization levels (-05, -O4 and
-qhot), interprocedural analysis, and SMP are now supported for 64-bit
codes.
Asynchronous I/O
XL Fortran for AIX supports asynchronous I/O. Asynchronous I/O may be
useful for programs that perform I/O for large amounts of data.
Asynchronous I/O may make it possible for other program statements to be
executed while the data transfer takes place.
Debug Memory Routines
XL Fortran for AIX contains two libraries geared to various memory
allocation facilities:
libhmd.a provides debug versions of memory management routines. The
facilities provided with libhmd.a include:
-
Memory leak reporting that indicates where the allocation of non-freed
storage occurred, and partial contents of the area not freed
-
Memory error detection
libhm.a is a non-debug library that provides replacement routines for
malloc, calloc, realloc, free, strdup, mallopt, and mallinfo. These
routines are designed to be faster than the AIX versions. In addition,
two library routines have been added to provide production-level services
to aid in maintaining consistent/correct heap storage.
Miscellaneous Options
XL Fortran for AIX supports the -qsuffix compiler option that enables the
programmer to specify the source-file suffix on the command line rather
than in the configuration file. This saves the user's time by permitting
file names to be used as named with minimal makefile compilations,
thereby removing the risk of problems that can arise as a result of
config file modifications.
The -qsuppress compiler option allows the programmer to suppress the
display of compiler or driver messages as desired.
XL Fortran for AIX also includes a suboption, auto, to the -qcache,
-qarch, and -qtune compiler options. Specification of this suboption
results in the automatic detection of the specific cache configuration of
the compiling machine and the specific architecture that the code should
be compiled for. It assumes that the execution environment will be the
same as the compilation environment.
License Use Management (LUM)
XL Fortran for AIX V7.1 uses LUM as its license management tool. LUM
lets users track and manage the use of the XL Fortran for AIX V7.1
compiler. The LUM keys are provided with the program package. Two kinds
of LUM keys are available in the program package:
-
Concurrent-nodelocked
-
Concurrent-network
You can choose the type of LUM key that best meets your requirements.
CDE
XL Fortran for AIX V7.1 uses the GUI-based CDE in the AIX V4.1, or later,
operating system. CDE integration consists of an XL Fortran application
folder integrated within the CDE Application Manager. The XL Fortran
application folder contains icons representing the XL Fortran tools and
applications.
The integration of the XL Fortran tools within CDE enables programmers to
invoke the tools in a simple and consistent manner. The CDE desktop
recognizes different types of files using a data type database. A data
type identifies the files of a particular format and associates them with
the appropriate applications. Programmers need not remember command-line
invocations of tools. In most cases, when a programmer double-clicks on
a file, the CDE desktop automatically launches the correct application
that recognizes the file's data.
The XL Fortran for AIX V7.1 folder contains:
-
Live Parsing Extensible (LPEX) editor
-
Program Builder
-
Debugger (the IBM Distributed Debugger and the xldb debugger)
-
GUI-based command-line builder (xxlf)
LPEX Editor
The LPEX editor is a language-sensitive and fully programmable editor
that supports full Fortran 95 function. The LPEX editor can be used to
create and edit many types of text files, including program source and
documentation. Using LPEX, the programmer can:
-
Use multiple windows to display several documents or more than one view
of the same document
-
Dynamically configure LPEX to be a multiple-window or single-window tool
-
Select a block of text and move or copy it between documents
-
Cut and paste to a shell or another application
-
Undo previous changes to a document
Programmers can customize and extend virtually every aspect of this
programmable editor. LPEX is designed to be extended through dynamic
link libraries. There is no proprietary extension language to learn.
With the LPEX API, programmers can write powerful extensions to the
editor. In addition, LPEX provides a rich command language that
programmers can use to create or modify editor functions. Programmers
can:
-
Define their own fonts and colors
-
Modify the editor action key layout
-
Add menus to perform frequently used commands (menu definitions can be
applied on a filename extension basis)
-
Write their own editor commands
Program Builder
Use this windows-based tool to compile source files, correct errors in
source files, and link the resulting object files into a program or
library. The Program Builder also provides a user interface for creating
makefiles.
Compiler, linker, and other related information supplied by the user is
used to invoke a makefile building tool. The Program Builder:
-
Provides a GUI to simplify the process of setting and saving compile and
linker options.
-
Supports error browsing from a list display. Selecting a compile error
in the list positions the cursor at the error in the source code in the
LPEX editor.
-
Creates a makefile used by the AIX
make
command to construct and maintain programs and libraries. The Program
Builder also determines build dependencies by scanning the source code
files for dependency information.
The xldb Debugger
xldb is a GUI-based symbolic debugger. It supports the debugging of
single- and multithreaded Fortran codes. It also supports the debugging
of 32-bit and 64-bit Fortran codes. xldb is a full Fortran 95 debugger.
xldb's intuitive GUI enables programmers to control the execution of the
program, examine and modify data (variables, storage, and registers), and
perform many other useful functions.
xldb provides machine-level and source-level debugging. It is built
around a set of core functions designed to let programmers quickly and
efficiently control execution and analyze data. With these core
functions, developers can:
-
Display and change variables
-
Display and change storage
-
Display and change the processor registers
-
Display the call stack
-
Add and delete simple and complex breakpoints
-
Control the execution of multiple threads
-
View source code as listing, disassembly, or mixed
Technology Preview: The IBM Distributed Debugger
The Distributed Debugger is being provided as a technology preview with
the XL Fortran for AIX product. It is provided as-is and is unwarranted.
For information on how to access the Distributed Debugger, see the
README.xlf file.
The Distributed Debugger application allows you to find problems in a
program. It can also be used as a tool to understand a program. By
allowing you to control the program being debugged, you can trace through
the flow of program execution and, at any desired point, stop and examine
the program's internal state. The values of variables and expressions
can be examined using the monitors available in the debugger. You can
also examine the call stack for each thread in your program. The
Distributed Debugger provides support for the following languages:
-
C/C++
-
Fortran
-
Interpreted Java™
Command-Line Builder (xxlf)
xxlf is a GUI-based command-line builder that understands various options
available for XL Fortran. It is designed to simplify the process of
selecting compiler options and may help the programmer understand what
each option does.
IBM XL Fortran Run-Time Environment (RTE) for AIX V7.1

is required for each specific user with local or remote access to the
program or any portion of the program. Only an authorized user may have
access to the program or any portion of the program.
If an organization wishes to authorize 30 persons to have access to the
XL Fortran for AIX program, or any portion of the XL Fortran for AIX
program, then that organization must purchase 30 authorized user
licenses. The number of persons the organization believes will be
accessing the XL Fortran for AIX program, or any portion of the XL
Fortran for AIX program, at the same time is irrelevant to the authorized
user license purchase.

XL Fortran for AIX V7.1 is licensed based on authorized users. The
number of users allowed to use the XL Fortran for AIX V7.1 compiler is
determined by the number of licenses purchased by the customer.
An authorized user is a specific user authorized to have local or remote
access to the program or any portion of the program. A separate
authorization or authorized user is required for each specific user with
local or remote access to the program or any portion of the program.
Only an authorized user may have access to the program or any portion of
the program.
When XL Fortran for AIX V7.1 is ordered, its run-time component is
shipped with the compiler on the same media. The XL Fortran Run-Time
component should be installed on an RS/6000 or an RS/6000 SP node where
the Fortran program will be compiled and executed.
XL Fortran Run-Time Environment for AIX V7.1 is licensed based on copies
installed. Charges for this program are based on the number of copies
installed on a machine identified by a single type and model number
regardless of the number of processors it contains. The total number of
copies installed may not exceed the number authorized by the applicable
Proof of Entitlement. If the total number exceeds the quantity in the
Proof of Entitlement, you must notify IBM or its resellers as stated in
the IPLA.
The files/modules listed below or located in the directory named below
may be copied onto your media, in object code only, when your application
is dependent upon them, subject to the following terms and conditions.
You agree:
-
That copies of these modules are provided "as is." You are responsible
for all technical assistance for your application;
-
To indemnify IBM from and against any third-party claim arising out of
the use or redistribution of your application;
-
Not to use IBM's name or trademarks in connection with the marketing of
your applications without IBM's prior written consent;
-
To prohibit the recipient from copying (except for backup purposes),
reverse assembling, reverse compiling, or otherwise translating the
application; and
-
Not to use the same path name as the original files/modules.

Solution developers who sell applications that pre-req the XL Fortran
Run-Time Environment (RTE) for AIX V7.1 may redistribute it to their
customers according to the above terms but their customers will not
receive support directly from IBM. Solution developers wanting their
customers to receive support directly from IBM should require their
customers to purchase an XL Fortran Run-Time Environment for AIX V7.1
license.
XL Fortran for AIX V7.1 is license use management-enabled. The program
package should include both a concurrent-nodelocked license file and a
concurrent-network license file. The customer should choose the type of
licensing required based on the number of users using the compiler.
