Introduction

The Oracle Developer Studio Fortran compiler, f95, is available under the Oracle Solaris operating environment on SPARC®, UltraSPARC®, and x64/x86 platforms, and Oracle Linux environments on x86/x64 platforms. The compiler conforms to published Fortran language standards, and provides many extended features, including multiprocessor parallelization, sophisticated optimized code compilation, and mixed C/Fortran language support.

The f95 compiler also provides a Fortran 77 compatibility mode that accepts most legacy Fortran 77 source codes. A separate Fortran 77 compiler is no longer included. See Chapter 5 for information on FORTRAN 77 compatibility and migration issues.
