# f2cpp.pl - Converts Fortran 77 code to C++

#

# Unlike f2c, the output of f2cpp.pl may or may not compile, however,

# only a small number of hand-tuned changes are typically needed.

# The resulting code is much cleaner than f2c's output, and much closer

# to the original intent of the original Fortran code.

#

# The resulting C++ code is very C-style; we basically only want C++

# for its std::complex<> type and operator overloading.

#

# Assumes single subroutine per file, and that there are

# no lines of significance above the subroutine declaration.

#

# TODOs:

# - Make the first step of conversion breaking up the input into chunks

#   delimited by subroutine boundaries. This will require full on parsing

#   of blocks.

# - Some declarations are generated incorrectly, like IZAMAX, whose array

#   argument is never an array.

# - Fix by-value argument passing of expressions (currently lets through

#   things like (-&std::conj(tau)).

# - Generate proper subroutine declarations for character arguments

#   (should be const char *, not char).

# - Determine const-ness of function declaration parameters through program

#   analysis.
