Hello, the project is already successfully completed, but I thought for the completeness (and documentation) give myself an answer on what I did wrong and what the correct solution was. I. I didn’t realise that parameter ordering was crucial. Somehow I just had forgotten this knowledge, but not matter why I did. So after some talk with my colleagues I did finally sort that out. II. You can integrate Python and FORTRAN in two different ways: inline with Cf2py or with signature files. The Numpy and f2py documentation describes the Cf2py solution very well. But my project asked for *no* modification of the FORTRAN source files. So I had to enter the undocumented arena. Lesson learnt: When using the signature file option f2py will effectively re-sort all the parameters in the following order: * integer * real * character * real dimension So the real/correct parameter order will be shown inside if Python when using:
print (func.___doc___)

Hi I am helping out with a Python and Fortran project. Let me give you some background:

When trying to run with Python 2.7 I get: olof@ubuntu:~$ ./demo.py unexpected array size: new_size=4, got array with arr_size=1 Traceback (most recent call last): File "./demo.py", line 33, in <module> main() File "./demo.py", line 30, in main stressNew, stateNew, enerInternNew, enerInelasNew = vumat(nblock, ndir, nshr, nstatev, nprops, stepTime, dt, props, density, strainInc, tempOld, stressOld, stateOld, enerInternOld, enerInelasOld) VUMAT_Bergstrom_FCC.error: failed in converting 9th argument `stressold' of VUMAT_Bergstrom_FCC.vumat to C/Fortran array
Other stuff: * python 2.7.6 * numpy/f2py 1.8.2 * gcc/gfortran 4.8.2 * ubuntu 14.04 LTS 32-bit
I have tried to google, read the f2py manual, fortran tutorials etc, but to no avail. I must also admit that my knowledge in python is so-so and fortran even less(!). What is the missing statement/syntax that I can’t get correct?
Your humble programmer, Olof
