Hello,

while testing the PLplot configuration and build system using CMake 2.6
I stumbled upon a strange interference between MS Visual C/C++ and g95.

Here is a description of my platform:
- Windows XP
- MS Visual C/C++ 6.0
- g95, installed under MinGW

The following CMakeLists.txt file illustrates the problem:

# Testing combination MSVC and g95
#

project(g95_msvc)

set(PACKAGE g95_msvc)

include(CMakeDetermineFortranCompiler)
enable_language(Fortran)


set(g95_msvc_LIB_SRCS
simple.c
)

add_library(g95_msvc ${g95_msvc_LIB_SRCS})


If I leave out the two lines regarding Fortran, then a library
"g95_msvc.lib" will be built. If I include them a library "libg95_msvc.a"
will be built instead.

This would not be a big problem, I suppose, but the interference
goes beyond that: if I build a DLL, then I get complaints from the
linker about options like L\lib (in the PLplot project). g95 bails
out on such options as "STACK:1000000" that suddenly appear.

It means that a combination of MSVC and g95 in one project is
impossible. (It all works by the way with CVF as the Fortran
compiler, but I must remove g95 from the path then).

Note:
In the PLplot project, we mostly build separate DLLs/so's, so that
a combination of MSVC and g95 should be possible. In any case, in
a project that builds standalone executables in C and Fortran, any
incompatibility between these compilers would be unimportant, but
now this appears impossible.

Does anyone know how to solve this problem?

Regards,

Arjen
