Crate fortranc 

A library for Cargo build scripts to compile a set of Fortran files into a static archive for Cargo to link into the crate being built. This crate does not compile code itself; it calls out to the default compiler for the platform. This crate is courtesy of the work done in cc-rs crate.

Example

First, you’ll want to both add a build script for your crate (build.rs) and also add this crate to your Cargo.toml via:

[build-dependencies]
fortranc = "*"

Next up, you’ll want to write a build script like so:

// build.rs
fortranc::Build::new()
    .file("foo.f90")
    .file("bar.f90")
    .compile("foo");

And that’s it! Running cargo build should take care of the rest and your Rust application will now have the Fortran files foo.f90 and bar.f90 compiled into a file named libfoo.a. If the Fortran files contain

subroutine foo() bind(C)
   print *, 'hello from fortran'
end subroutine

and

function bar() bind(C) result(i)
  integer(4) :: i
  i = 5
end function

you can call them from Rust by declaring them in your Rust code like so:

unsafe extern "C" {
    fn foo();
    fn bar() -> i32;
}

pub fn call() {
    unsafe {
        foo();
        bar();
    }
}

fn main() {
    call();
}
