NAME

abort − terminate Fortran program

SYNOPSIS

call abort call abort(message)
character∗(∗) message

DESCRIPTION

abort terminates the program which calls it, closing all open files truncated to the current position of the file pointer. 

The hf77 compiler treats abort as a special intrinsic, calling unique abort functions depending on whether an argument was supplied or not.  If the user wishes to have their own external routine named abort, they should be sure to EXTERNAL the name in each subprogram from which it is called, as well as make sure it is provided to the linker prior to the Fortran system libraries. 

DIAGNOSTICS

When invoked, abort prints “Fortran abort routine called” or the user supplied message on the standard error output. 

SEE ALSO

abort(3C).
