Compiling error? Executable error? - CVF 6.6.B

Pascal.Galloway · May 4, 2012, 7:31pm

Hi All,

I have attemted to recompile FAST in its normal state, just to check things have worked, before making any ‘fundamental’ changes to the source code. Below I have shown the DOS output from the downloaded executable (no problems), and the output from the executable created using Compaq Visual Fortran 6.6.B (errors displayed below):

I assume the error must lie somewhere within the changes I have had to make in order to compile the source code, I will list these below to see if this could explain to anyone why the executable did not run correctly:

deleted various unnecessary source files (DoublePrec.f90, SysVF.f90 etc.)
commented out references to UserWind and UD_Wind in InflowWindMod.f90 (I did not have a UserWind module file, but I assume this is irrelevant to the problem since I do not use one?)
changed SharedTypes to SharedDataTypes in AeroDyn.f90 as per bjj

I will aslo include the compiler build info (with the warnings):

Sorry for the very long message but I am completely lost at this stage, so close and yet so far!

Kind regards,

I don’t recommend actually deleting source files. You can remove the files from your Visual Studio project without deleting them.
You should not have to change anything in UserWind to compile it. The UserWind.f90 file should be in the archive (did you delete it in step 1?).
Again, you should not have to change this to compile the code. (Any comments you saw from me were notes to myself for a future release…)

Your traceback information can help you figure out where the problem occurred:

This tells you that the problem was on line 5167 of FAST.f90, in subroutine RtHS(). (The other lines tell you which routines called RtHS().)

An access violation means that you are trying to access memory at an invalid address or write to a protected address. This usually happens if you haven’t allocated arrays before you use them or you try to access an element of an array that doesn’t exist (e.g., you have a 3 element array and you ask for element 4).

Because this code compiles and runs with IVF, my guess is that the Compaq compiler–which has been known to have issues with allocatable arrays (there are forum posts on this)–is not compiling the source code properly. You could try to compile in “Release” mode instead of “Debug”, but I wouldn’t trust it. I highly recommend that you upgrade to a newer compiler that supports Fortran 2003 features.

Hi Bonnie,

I have taken your advice and gone over to IVF 2008. I have succeeded in getting the program to compileand run and it matches (except for tiny discrepancies which are probably smaller than any mathemtaical error.

One final question relates to the properties settings you use in IVF. I used ‘release’ mode and it’s default settings. What settings would you recommend I use?

My executable is not currently as fast as the downloaded one, only about 89% of the speed.

Thanks,

Pascal

Incidentally, I didn’t bother with the Compile_FAST.bat file, I simply created a project (empty console app), loaded all the relevant source files and built it after changing the configuration manager to ‘release’ instead of debug.

Bonnie.Jonkman · May 8, 2012, 11:50pm

I typically just update the default Release and/or Debug configurations, adding the /Qsave, /Qzero, and /assume:byterecl options (under the properties/fortran/data?).

You can play around with the optimization levels; different compilers/versions will have different optimizations. Sometimes certain test cases will run faster compiled on one compiler while others run faster with a different compiler.
