OpenCoarrays (original) (raw)
OpenCoarrays is an open-source software project that produces an application binary interface (ABI) used by the GNU Compiler Collection (GCC) Fortran front-end to build executable programs that leverage the parallel programming features of Fortran 2018.

Installation via package management is generally the easiest and most reliable option. See below for the package-management installation options for Linux, macOS, and FreeBSD. Alternatively, download and build the latest OpenCoarrays release via the contained installation scripts or with CMake.
| Linux Linux users will find it easiest to install via the package managers linuxbrew, APT, or aur, or may use the pre-installed OpenCoarrays in HPCLinux. Please review the installation documentation Linux information | macOS macOS users will find it easiest to install using the homebrew package manager. Please review the installation documentation macOS information. Windows users may install in the Windows Subsystem for Linux via the OpenCoarrays Windows installation script. Please see the installation documentation Windows information. |
