Passing Fortran arrays to C

问题

I am having a lot of trouble passing Fortran arrays to a C program. From what I have gathered from previous posts is the inclusion of the interface. That got rid of some of my problems. However, I cannot seem to figure out how to pass these arrays properly or access their values correctly inside C.

program f_call_c
  implicit none


  interface
     subroutine cfun(x,len) bind( c )
       use,intrinsic :: iso_c_binding
       implicit none
       integer( c_int) :: len
       real(c_double) :: x(0:3,0:len)
     end subroutine   cfun

     subroutine vec(r,len) bind(c)
       use,intrinsic :: iso_c_binding
       implicit none
       integer(c_int) :: len
       real(c_double) :: r(0:len)
     end subroutine vec


  end interface


  double precision, allocatable :: x(:,:),r(:)
  integer :: len,row,i,j

  len = 7
  allocate(x(0:3,0:len))
  allocate(r(0:len))

  do i =0,len
     r(i) = i
  enddo


  do i = 0,len
     do j = 0,3
        x(j,i) = j+i
     enddo
  enddo

  call vec(r,%val(len) )

  row = 3
  call cfun(x,%val(len))
end program f_call_c


#include <stdio.h>
void cfun(double **x,const int len)
{
  printf("%d\n", len);
  printf("This is in C function cfun...\n");


  for(int i=0; i<len; i++)
    {
      printf(" %d\n  %d\n  %d\n", x[0][i]);

    }
}

void vec(  double *r[],const int len )
{
  printf("This is in C function vec...\n");

  printf("%d\n", len);

  for(int i=0; i<len; i++)
    {
       printf(" %d\n", r[i]);

    }

}

Currently, the output is

    Fortran calling C, passing
 r at           0 is   0.0000000000000000     
 r at           1 is   1.0000000000000000     
 r at           2 is   2.0000000000000000     
 r at           3 is   3.0000000000000000     
 r at           4 is   4.0000000000000000     
 r at           5 is   5.0000000000000000     
 r at           6 is   6.0000000000000000     
 r at           7 is   7.0000000000000000

Any suggestions?

You can't recieve a fortran array in c as double **, it should be double *, so try this

#include <stdio.h>

void cfun(double *x, const int len)
{
    printf("%d\n", len);
    printf("This is in C function cfun...\n");

    for (int i = 0 ; i < len ; i++)
    {
        printf(" %d\n  %d\n  %d\n", x[i]);
    }
}

in fact if you have a c double ** array of pointers you should join the arrays into a single array to pass it to fortran, see for example how to use Lapack in c.

The reason is that in in a fortran 2d array is stored contiguously, whereas in c double ** is an array of pointers, and hence the values are not contiguously stored.

Note that when printing the values, you will print wrong values, because you are not using the appropriate format specifier for double you should fix the printf line to make it look like this

printf(" %f\n  %f\n  %f\n", x[i]);
