Fortran 2003 interface bindings to Xlib

fortran-xlib: Fortran 2003 Interfaces to Xlib

A collection of ISO C binding interfaces to Xlib for Fortran 2003. Currently, only a subset of Xlib is implemented. In order to work with XPM files, interfaces to libxpm are included.

Build

Build the interface bindings with:

$ make

Then, link your Fortran applications against libfortran-xlib.a -lX11. Or, run fpm instead:

$ fpm build --profile release

The fpm script does not build any examples. You can add fortran-xlib as a fpm dependency:

[dependencies]
fortran-xlib = { git = "https://github.com/interkosmos/fortran-xlib.git" }

Examples

Example programs utilising the interfaces can be found in the directory examples/:

• drawing draws some shapes on the window.
• events captures X11 events.
• image loads and displays an XPM image with transparency.
• mandelbrot draws a Mandelbrot set.
• raycaster projects a 2-D map into 3-D.
• starfield flys through a starfield.
• text outputs coloured text.
• window displays a simple window.
• wireframe renders a wire-frame model of a Tie Fighter.

Build them with make <name> or compile them manually, for instance:

$ gfortran -I/usr/local/include/ -L/usr/local/lib/ -o window examples/window/window.f90 libfortran-xlib.a -lX11
