Fortran source code cebugging in scientific and technical computing applications

Native Fortran notation

While there are some things that both C and Fortran have in common, Fortran is not C.  Our technology correctly represents Fortran notation, types, and concepts, such as common blocks and modules, that are not present in other languages.

Fortran arrays

Fortran is especially good at representing and manipulating numerical and mathematical data. One of its key characteristics is its facility for representing array data. Scientists and engineers working with Fortran source code are doing so in part to take advantage of language-level support for things like multi-dimensional arrays, array assignment, and the powerful features of Fortran pointers.  Our technology can help you leverage these key attributes of Fortran to ensure working code.


"One of our simulations was about 1.5 million lines of code. We had to complete the simulation within schedule which required us to use code from other sources, most of which was written in Fortran.... TotalView's debugger cut development time by 60 to 70 percent."
