Product number 211469A

Description of Product

TECHPPG is a general software tool for generating postprocessors on ND500/5000. The product will be delivered to customers as FORTRAN sources, NRF libraries and specification files. The main program is only delivered as NRF to the customers.

The product consists of:

  • 10 example specification files in ASCII format
  • 4 library files (NRF) which are used for linking the generated postprocessor
  • 2 example mode files for the compiling procedure of modified subroutines and for the link procedures
  • 7 COMMON block declaration files which are included during compilation source code of all FORTRAN written subroutines and the block data program which initializes the dialogue texts.
  • 1 mode file for the compiling procedure of the complete FORTRAN source to a new NRF library file.
