HDF5 and Fortran 2003 on Debian

HDF5 and Fortran 2003 on Debian

1 Debian Packages and Fortran 2003

Official Debian packages for HDF5 are built without support for Fortran 2003; therefore some new features are not available for users of Fortran.

2 Change the build process

It's a one line change in ./debian/rules; just replace

SERIAL_ONLY_FLAGS = --enable-fortran --enable-threadsafe --enable-cxx

with

SERIAL_ONLY_FLAGS = --enable-fortran --enable-fortran2003 --enable-threadsafe --enable-cxx

The compiled package 1.8.12 from Debian Sid works after recompiling with Debian Sid. For Debian Stable the compilation fails with an error on MPICH:

...

But rebuilding 1.8.8 on Debian Stable with the same correction works as expected. We use these modified packages on our computers with success - but as we are not heavy users of HDF5 experience is limited.

3 Test

The programme hdf5f2003.f90 tries to write the largest possible 64 bit integer value into the file longint.h5; by calling h5dump afterwards it is possible to verify correctness of this transaction.
