Hi Bill,
It might not be a good idea to use the proposed interoperability
Technical Report (N1277) as the model for C Interoperability.
For various reasons (mainly schedule related), the work item for that
TR was dropped, and J3 was asked to complete the work as part of Fortran
200x instead. The syntax and some of the semantics for interoperability
that has been adopted by J3 are sufficiently different that you would
probably be facing significant re-work once Fortran 200x is adopted.
Thanks,
Henry

Subject: C Interoperability implementations
I am about to start a project that uses the proposed C Interoperability
standard.
The NASoftware compiler has an implementation of the original ISO/IEC
1539-1:1997
proposal, but not the changes in N1298 and N1299. Does anyone know if
there are
any other implementations of the proposed standard (either original or
modified)?
Bill
