What is a good way to get file size in bytes using Fortran?
file, fortran, function, intel-fortran
Solution
INQUIRE(FILE=filename, SIZE=file_size)
`filename` is a character scalar, `file_size` is an integer scalar that will be defined with the size of the file in file storage units ("in bytes" on ifort), or -1 if the size cannot be determined.
Problem
Is there a way to get the filesize in Fortran using Intel Fortran? I was using `stat` which works great in gfortran, but it is not available in ifort.
