If you'd like to run the provided tests to verify your installation,

1. Navigate to the test/ directory underneath the build/ directory.

cd test/

2. Use ctest to run the provided tests

ctest .

The above steps install

/opt/feqparse/include/FEQParse.mod

Usage

Demo Program

Example Makefile

FC = gfortran
FLIBS += -L/opt/feqparse/lib -lfeqparse
FFLAGS += -I/opt/feqparse/include

demo : FEqParseDemo.f90
	${FC} -c FEqParseDemo.f90 ${FFLAGS}
	${FC} FEqParseDemo.o ${FFLAGS} ${FLIBS} -o $@

Example program

PROGRAM FEqParseDemo

USE FEQParse

IMPLICIT NONE

  TYPE(EquationParser) :: f
  CHARACTER(LEN=1), DIMENSION(1:3) :: independentVars
  CHARACTER(LEN=30) :: eqChar
  REAL :: x(1:3)

    ! Specify the independent variables
    independentVars = (/ 'x', 'y', 'z' /)

    ! Specify an equation string that we want to evaluate 
    eqChar = 'f = exp( -(x^2 + y^2 + z^2) )'

    ! Create the EquationParser object
    f = EquationParser(eqChar, independentVars)
   
    ! Evaluate the equation 
    x = (/ 0.0, 0.0, 0.0 /) 
    PRINT*, f % evaluate( x )

    ! Clean up memory
    CALL f % Destruct()


END PROGRAM FEqParseDemo
