CamFort
CamFort is a refactoring and verification tool for scientific Fortran programs. It currently supports Fortran 66, 77, 90, 95 and 2003 (somewhat) with various legacy extensions.
It is a research project developed in University of Cambridge and University of Kent.
Obtaining
Recommended install method by OS:
- Windows: prebuilt bundles (includes dependencies) at
Releases: download
ones beginning
camfort-bundle-windows - Mac: via Homebrew:
brew install camfort/camfort/camfort - Linux: prebuilt binaries at Releases. See Wiki: Building for how to install library dependencies for your OS.
We provide prebuilt binaries for Windows, Mac and Linux. For Windows, we also provide archives that bundle the CamFort executable together with all of its dependencies.
CamFort is also available through Homebrew (formula):
brew install camfort/camfort/camfort
An older (~2019) version of CamFort is available on Docker at camfort/camfort.
Usage
CamFort is a command-line tool, so invoke it from your favourite shell or command prompt. Detailed usage information is available on the wiki.
Building
(If you want a recent build and don't want to sit through the compilation process, you may wish to instead check the Actions tab and download the relevant build for your system from a recent workflow run.)
This section only covers building briefly. See Wiki: Building for full details.
CamFort supports GHC 8.4 through GHC 8.10, and builds with both Stack and Cabal. We regularly test at least the minimum and maximum supported GHCs. Releases prior to/newer than those may have issues. (We welcome fixes that would let us support a wider range of compilers!)
You will likely need at least 3 GiBs of memory and some patience to build CamFort.
CamFort depends on the following foreign libraries:
These should be built for your system, but installation method varies. System-specific guides are provided on the wiki. (Alternatively, you could check the GitHub Actions workflows.) On Ubuntu:
apt install libflint-dev liblapack-dev libopenblas-dev z3
Then stack build for Stack, or cabal build for Cabal.
Tab Completion (Bash)
To enable Bash autocompletion for camfort, add the following to your
.bashrc or .bash_profile file:
eval "$(camfort --bash-completion-script=$(which camfort))"
Contributing
We appreciate any bugs you encounter and kindly request you to submit it as an issue.
Pull requests are much appreciated, but please contact us first if it is a substantial change. Make sure to run the test suite before you submit.
If you have scientific code that you would like us to analyse, we would be happy to add it to CamFort corpus. This helps us finding useful ways to extend CamFort as well as ensuring it is robust.
