James,
I can't help much, because I am on Linux and all works fine, but
since there are no other answers, I'll offer my 2 cents.
I guess you have followed the installation instructions in the
user's guide (
http://wiki.eclipse.org/PTP/photran/documentation/photran6 ), but
did you see the specific additional instructions for Windows users
further down the page (
http://wiki.eclipse.org/PTP/photran/documentation/photran6#Additional_Instructions_for_Windows_Users
) ?
Have you tried to compile and run a simple Hello world?
All I can offer is to have a quick look at your code and try to
compile and run it on my machine to verify that there are no
language-related bugs. Just send to my private email.
Best
Daniel

Everybody,
A follow up to me previous email.
I've tried several fixes, none of which have changed the behavior of
the bug in the slightest.
I searched through the archives of this mailing list, and found the
possibility that I would have to switch to an older JRE such as
version 5, release 13. When I did this switch, nothing changed.
Also, I realized I was running the program as a 32 bit program on a 64
bit machine. I tried reinstalling everything with 64 bit options
whenever the option was given. Also no change in behavior.
Please, any help out there? Documentation is extremely sparse, and I
would really like to bring my development environment into the 21
century. These bugs are just killing me, though. If they aren't
resolved, I'll have to pull back emphatically on any push for
adoption.

Hello,
I have been recently inspecting Photran to see how it handles in
real-world environments. I really like the idea of using Eclipse as
the basis for a large number of reasons, including the possibility of
expanding the functionality for in-house projects. Unfortunately, I
am having some serious issues with the debugger that make it
essentially useless for me needs as is currently stands.
There are several different problems I have found, which do not
reassure me. However, I consider it likely that these problems are
due as much to my particular configuration as anything else. I have a
Windows XP 64 bit system with the gfortran and gdb debugger installed
as per the directions on the website.
My game-breaker bugs is as follows:
(1) When I place a debug point, some of the information from the
debugger apparently leaks over into the output console. The timing is
unpredictable, but repeatable with the same code. This would be a
minor problem if it weren't for the fact that the program also
sometimes hangs when this happens. When is again unpredictable; it
depends in my particular case how many lines have breakpoints, and
which lines they are. This is unacceptable.
In my case, the last line of output from my simple console app looks like:
Number 2205 0.50000149
1738*stopped,reason="breakpoint-hit",bkptno="1",thread-id="1",frame={addr="0x0040135e",func="entry",args=[],file="../entry.f90",fullname="/cygdrive/d/Documents
and Settings/ja21673.MITLL/workspace/first_test/entry.f90",line="15"}
Several other (maybe related) irritants:
(2) The output from the execution console is not encouraging, and
means almost nothing to me. My most recent session produced the
output:
cygwin warning:
MS-DOS style path detected: D:\Documents and
Settings\ja21673.MITLL\workspace\first_test
Preferred POSIX equivalent is: /cygdrive/d/Documents and
Settings/ja21673.MITLL/workspace/first_test
CYGWIN environment variable option "nodosfilewarning" turns off this warning.
Consult the user's guide for more details about POSIX paths:

.gdbinit: No such file or directory.
auto-solib-add on

A syntax error in _expression_, near `.0'.
(3) When I select an element of an array, this last part of the
console output is produced.
I can send you a copy of the program and the output, if you'd like;
they aren't very long. I don't know what else is relevant; the
makefile, maybe? I just used the autogenerated one.
