gfortran

[tana60]

Hello everyone,

I need the gfortran compiler and I am still quite new to TinyCore to manage building an extension... 

gfortran.tcz exists for previous releases, but it is a bit outdated, and I am afraid to mess my install with it (not even sure it works, installing .tcz from previous TC?...)

Could you please update or rebuild the extension?
Thank you a lot 

--------------------------------------------------------
Gfortran's source code  is included in gcc ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gcc/gcc-6.1.0/, and to build it instructions are. from the GNU site,
"in a nutshell you do: create a new directory, e.g. ../gcc-build, go there and run ../gcc/configure --prefix=$HOME/gcc-trunk --enable-languages=c,fortran. You may want to add more languages, --enable-checking=release (esp. useful for compile-time tests as it disables some consistency checks in the compile), --disable-bootstrap (builds faster*, but disables some consistency checks). After make and make install you have built your own GCC.
Make sure that you have the MPFR installed, which is needed to compile the GCC."
*VERY faster!

You could try sending a pm to @akane to request an update to the gfortran extension?

gfortran and gfortran-lib posted (but not tested)

THANK YOU! 
I just tried to compile/run and it works!

Could you please consider adding also gfortran for pure 64 tcz ?

You could try yourself based on the instructions here:

Thank you! 

I never managed to make an extension  so meanwhile I think to use the 32-bit TC, but maybe will give a try to make the 64b extension in the next weeks.
