We do have the original Fortran code and only really want to be ableto handle
changes in operating system needs (like changing Windowsrequirements) or even
porting to Linux.But currently we are not able to compile new DLL:s even since
we don'thave a Fortran compiler. Can GNU Fortran be used for testing?
For example is GNU Fortran (https://gcc.gnu.org/fortran/) possible tobuild on
Windows? I have very limited experience in compiler buildingexcept for
FreePascal, which I have built many times...
AFICT the *sources* are available via SVN:https://gcc.gnu.org/svn.html
