Dear LLVMers,
Does anyone know what the latest is w.r.t a FORTRAN front-end for LLVM? Is anyone expecting to have typical f90/f95 programs compiling to LLVM this year, or next? (I'm aware of the "NAG hack" and various other f2c-type approaches, but they give me a strange feeling in my tummy.)

Hi Duraid,
Does anyone know what the latest is w.r.t a FORTRAN front-end for
LLVM? Is anyone expecting to have typical f90/f95 programs compiling to
LLVM this year, or next? (I'm aware of the "NAG hack" and various other
f2c-type approaches, but they give me a strange feeling in my tummy.)
support for Fortran will be much easier once LLVM rebases itself on
gcc 4.2, which I hope will happen within the next few months. Then it
will probably only need a little tender loving care to spring to life.
However, we need a volunteer to provide that love...
Ciao,
Duncan.
I just noticed this - I can't promise any particular amount of TLC, but
I'll certainly be giving the Fortran front-end some attention as soon as
LLVM moves to gcc 4.2.
For future reference, does anyone know of a good free Fortran compiler
test suite?
Cheers,

The gcc testsuite has many Fortran tests.

I believe the Polyhedron benchmarks (http://www.polyhedron.com/pb05/polyhedron_benchmark_suite.html) are freely available, but I'm not sure if this qualifies as a test suite.
For GCC benchmarks (some of which are Fortran), see SUSE – Open Source Lösungen für Enterprise Server und Cloud | SUSE and off course the GCC testsuite.
