NAME

ftrue - Logical True

SYNOPSIS

Fortran (77, 90, 95, HPF):
f77 [ flags ] file(s) ... -L/usr/local/lib -lgjl
LOGICAL FUNCTION ftrue()
C (K&R, 89, 99), C++ (98):
cc [ flags ] -I/usr/local/include file(s) ... -L/usr/local/lib -lgjl
Use
#include <gampsi.h>
to get this prototype:
fortran_logical ftrue(void);

NB: The definition of C/C++ data types fortran_ xxx, and the mapping of Fortran external names to C/C++ external names, is handled by the C/C++ header file. That way, the same function or subroutine name can be used in C, C++, and Fortran code, independent of compiler conventions for mangling of external names in these programming languages.

Last code modification: 01-Aug-2000


DESCRIPTION

Return the Fortran logical constant .TRUE..

This function is intended to allow programs written in other languages to obtain the value of this implementation-dependent Fortran constant.
