Damnit, I was kind-of hoping this would not break compatibility. :( Then I guess I am forced to use cpp to create my actual sources. Thanks for the prompt answer! PS. Are there options to use the C-processor with gfortran? I tried: $> gfortran -Xpreprocessor "-x c11-cpp-input" <source> f951: Error: command line option ‘-x c11-cpp-input’ is valid for the driver but not for Fortran hrmph... 2016-02-19 20:30 GMT+01:00 Jonathan Wakely <jwakely.gcc@xxxxxxxxx>: > On 19 February 2016 at 19:01, Nick Papior wrote: >> Am I missing some point here? >> I would have expected gcc/gfortran to use the _same_ preprocessing >> utility as that provided in cpp? > > By default cpp works in C mode, but when invoked by the Fortran > front-end it runs in a different mode.
