NAME

free, fixed - specify if the source code uses the free or fixed format

SYNOPSIS

!DIR$ FREE

!DIR$ FIXED

IMPLEMENTATION

Cray Linux Environment (CLE)

DESCRIPTION

The FREE and FIXED directives specify whether the source code in the program unit is written in free source or fixed source form. These directives override the -f option, if specified on the ftn command line.

These directives apply to the source file in which they appear and allow you to switch source forms within a source file.

You can change source form within an INCLUDE file. After the INCLUDE file has been processed, the source form reverts to the source form that was being used prior to processing the INCLUDE file.

Note: The source preprocessor does not recognize the FREE or FIXED directives. These directives must not be specified in a file that is submitted to the source preprocessor. To specify source form, use the -f fixed or -f free option on the ftn command line.
