Fortran binding for libpolycall 1.5.0, published as @obinexusltd/fortran-polycall.

The binding uses standard ISO_C_BINDING interoperability. It converts a Fortran character value to a NUL-terminated c_char array, then calls the thin C adapter for polycall_ffi_run_config(config_path, 1). It contains no configuration parser or duplicated runtime logic.

Status-oriented usage:

program service
    use, intrinsic :: iso_c_binding, only: c_int
    use fortran_polycall, only: polycall_run_config
    implicit none

    integer(c_int) :: status

    status = polycall_run_config("fortran-polycallrc")
    if (status /= 0_c_int) stop 1
end program service

For startup paths where failure is fatal:

use fortran_polycall, only: polycall_run_config_or_stop

call polycall_run_config_or_stop("fortran-polycallrc")

Calling either API without a path uses fortran-polycallrc. polycall_run_config returns the libpolycall status unchanged; polycall_run_config_or_stop prints the status to error_unit before issuing Fortran error stop.

The C boundary follows the standardized GNU Fortran interoperability model.

npm install @obinexusltd/fortran-polycall

This is a native source package. Its CommonJS entry point exposes absolute paths for build tooling:

const polycall = require('@obinexusltd/fortran-polycall');

console.log(polycall.fortranModule);
console.log(polycall.nativeAdapter);
console.log(polycall.publicHeader);
console.log(polycall.ffiHeader);
console.log(polycall.config);

The npm tarball includes Fortran/C sources, headers, examples, tests, scripts, Makefile, manifest, and runtime configuration. Compiler-specific modules, objects, archives, and executables are excluded.

GNU Make builds both the Fortran module and native adapter into lib/libfortran_polycall.a:

npm run build
npm test
npm run verify

The test suite uses the real mixed Fortran/C boundary. It verifies explicit and default paths, NUL termination, run=1, and unchanged success/failure statuses.

To use another compatible compiler, override FC and CC on the Make command line:

make FC=ifx CC=icx

Point the final link at a libpolycall v1.5 library exporting polycall_ffi_run_config:

make example POLYCALL_LDFLAGS="-L/path/to/libpolycall/lib -lpolycall"

The runnable program is examples/basic.f90, and the read-only shared-schema override is fortran-polycallrc.
