Aucbvax.4076 net.2bsd-bugs utzoo!decvax!ucbvax!dist2 Sun Sep 27 03:53:00 1981 problems with f77 From: dsp.dove at MIT-SPEECH at MIT-AI Is anyone using the f77? I got it to compile one module, but one guy here is getting compiler error and another can't find f_inits() so his program won't load??? (help!)

The problem is that the libraries libF77.a, libI77.a, and libU77.a were not included in the distribution tape. This has now been fixed and they are included in all tapes made after 9/28/81.

It appears that f77 is failing to do a mem allocation, and calling an error routine with "out of mem" unfortunately it appears that the error routine is expecting an int! I hope this thing isn't really running out of memory.

The confusion here is understandable. The error routine is invoked as

error("out of memory",0,0,FATAL);

whereas the error routine appears (in part) as

error(index,t,u,type) int index; char *t, *u; register int type; { char buf[100]; long lseek();
