[LF] Help! *.mod *.lib and *.dll

[Lahey Support]

Dear All:

In Lahey FORTRAN90, one can pack one's procedure into a module

for further use. In this case, one need to compile it into a *.mod

When one need to use that module again, one can simply link it.

Then, how about *.lib? How to create and use that?

Now, consider *.dll. *.dll can be used ONLY when one complier

one's code into a WIN excutable, so, it seems to me that it is

more LIMITED comparing with *.mod. Since one can link those procedures

in *.mod into DOS or WIN excutable. So, what's the benefit for

compile one's procedures into a *.dll not just *.mod?


Thanks
