Fortran Application Framework

AWE  Fortran application framework adds a graphical user interface to legacy Fortran applications. Without any additional coding, traditional command line programs get a visual upgrade and enhanced functionality.  Fast Data Visualization extends that functionality to include displaying program results in a variety of visual formats. AWE is included FREE with Pro Fortran for Windows, Apple OS X and Linux. AWE is another example of the Absoft Pro Fortran integration of advanced compiler technology, visual development tools, and prebuilt libraries in one environment. It is the most complete Fortran solution on the market.

Modernize Legacy Code Instantly

AWE is implemented as a set of runtime libraries which are incorporated into your program at link time. Combining your existing source code with AWE is simply a matter of selecting an additional option your AbsoftTool’s IDE project.  The result is a double-clickable application with a standard window supporting FORTRAN READ and WRITE statements as well as a customizable menu system.  More advanced features included input forms, plots, charts, and spreadsheet displays can be added with only a small amount of additional code.

Fast Data Visualization

What is Fast Data Visualization? It is the ability to generate, plot, display, print and save your data in a variety of formats from within a single environment. No need to switch between multiple applications as typically required with other Fortran products.

Minimal Learning Curve

AWE is EASY – No need to learn system specific APIs. Typically, adding visual impact and utility to new or legacy Fortran code requires a separate learning curve and platform-specific code for each supported operating environment. Absoft’s AWE provides a platform-independent interface on all three major platforms with little or no additional coding.
