The univ Arrays
You can pass any size array to a Pascal procedure expecting a univ array, but
there is no advantage in doing so, since there is no type or size checking for
separate compilations. However, if you want to use an existing Pascal
procedure that has a
univ array, you can do so. All univ arrays that are in ,
out , in out, or var parameters pass by reference.
The commands to compile and
execute
FixVec.p and
FixVecmain.f
hostname% pc -c FixVec.p
hostname% f77 FixVec.o FixVecmain.f -lpfc -lpc
hostname% a.out
FixVecmain.f:
MAIN:

The Pascal procedure,
UniVec.p , which defines a 10-
element array
type
VecTyp = array [0..9] of integer;
procedure univec_(in V:univ VecTyp; var Last: integer;
var Total: integer);
var
i: integer;
begin
Total := 0;
for i := 0 to Last do
Total := Total + V[i]
end; { univec_ }
The FORTRAN main program,
UniVecmain.f , which passes
a 3-element array to the Pascal
procedure written to do a 10-
element array
integer Sum
integer a(0:2)
data a / 7, 8, 9 /
call UniVec ( a, 2, Sum )
write( *, "( I3 )") Sum
stop
