Hello I want to call a subroutine in a fortran module in C++ and discovered the AC_FC_FUNC macro. It seems it does not work with fortran modules. So the result it produces is useless. For concreteness, I want to call nestRun from the multinest library defined in fortran as module Nested ... contains subroutine nestRun(...) ... end subroutine nestRun end module Nested On linux with gfortran 4.6 and autoconf 2.68, I try AC_FC_FUNC(nestRun) echo "mangled name:" $nestRun and obtain mangled name: nestrun_ but the actual name in the library is __nested_MOD_nestrun Until now, the "recommended" procedure in multinest is to manually check for either of the gnu or intel compiler and enter the mangled routine name by hand. But this is hardly portable, as I just tried it out on the old gfortran 4.2 on a mac, and the mangled name is different from the above. Browsing the web, I found this document http://www.netlib.org/lapack/lawnspdf/lawn270.pdf that describes how cmake also supports module name mangling. If there is a standard way to achieve this with autoconf, please let me know. Else I would like to request that such a feature be included in autoconf as well.
