Errors when using a Fortran call back function in f2py


I am writing a code in python that exploits a Fortran 90 optimization algorithm. The idea is to have the MAIN routine in python that calls the algorithm in Fortran that calls another python function passing some parameters in order to calculate the value of an objective function (that is, it returns a scalar), like this:

[Python) MAIN  ⇒ [Fortran] BB_algo ⇒ [Python] FUNCT

Such problem should be solved by using the f2py libraries in python. In order to try to make such method work I have written some simpler code that makes similar operations.

The Fortran subroutine is called writepy:

subroutine writepy(funct,n)
    implicit none
    real, EXTERNAL :: funct
      INTEGER :: I,n
      REAL*8  :: r
!f2py intent(in), n
!f2py intent(out), r
!f2py real y
!f2py y=funct(y)
      r = 1D0
      DO I=1,5
         write(*,*) 'funct:', funct(n)
         r = r + funct(n)
      ENDDO
    return
end

while the code in Python is the following:

import os
os.system("f2py -m wp  -c writepy.f90")
import wp

def funct(n):
    print(n);    
    return n

if __name__ == '__main__':
    n=3;    
    wp.writepy(funct,n)

Fortran compiles well with gfortran, but when I try to compile it with f2py it seems that there are some errors with the wrapper in C of Fortran, but I do not really know what to do at this point.

I get the following:

Edit

Thanks to @DavidW's answer the code now works, but if I try to call the fortran function "writepy" from another function, the error of "use of undeclared identifier" is once again there.

the new Fortran code is

subroutine writepy(funct,n,r)
    implicit none
    EXTERNAL :: funct
    REAL     :: funct
    INTEGER :: I,n
    intent(in):: n
    REAL*8  :: r
    intent(out) ::r
    r = 1D0
    DO I=1,5
        write(*,*) 'funct:', funct(I)
        r = r + funct(n)
    ENDDO
    return
end

subroutine call_writepy(funct,n,r)
    implicit none
    EXTERNAL :: funct
    REAL     :: funct
    INTEGER :: n
    intent(inout):: n
    REAL*8  :: r
    intent(inout) ::r
    call writepy(funct,n,r)
    return
end

it compiles with GFortran, but when I use it with Python I get:

Solution

  • The problem is due to the fact that the compiler did not recognize the function "funct" from Python. In order to make the compiler aware of such function and its role, one needs to modify the .pyf file.

    The automatically generated .pyf file (with the command f2py writepy.f90 -m wp -h wp.pyf) is the following:

    !    -*- f90 -*-
    ! Note: the context of this file is case sensitive.
    
    python module __user__routines 
        interface writepy_user_interface 
            function funct(i) ! in :wp:writepy.f90:writepy:unknown_interface
                integer :: i
                real :: funct
            end function funct
        end interface writepy_user_interface
    end python module __user__routines
    
    python module wp ! in 
        interface  ! in :wp
            subroutine writepy(funct,n,r) ! in :wp:writepy.f90
                use writepy__user__routines
                external funct
                integer intent(in) :: n
                real*8 intent(out) :: r
            end subroutine writepy
    
            subroutine call_writepy(funct,n,r,q) ! in :wp:writepy.f90
                external funct
                integer intent(inout) :: n
                real*8 intent(out) :: r
                real*8 intent(out) :: q
            end subroutine call_writepy
        end interface 
    end python module wp
    
    ! This file was auto-generated with f2py (version:2).
    ! See http://cens.ioc.ee/projects/f2py2e/
    

    It is easy to notice that f2py recognizes “funct” in the “__user__routines” module. However it does not understand that such function is used in both the subroutines “writepy” and “call_writepy”. This is the source of the error. Therefore the user must modify the .pyf file, adding the command “use __user__routines”, in all the subroutines where “funct” is present as an external object:

    !    -*- f90 -*-
    ! Note: the context of this file is case sensitive.
    
    
    python module __user__routines
        interface
            function funct(i) 
                integer :: i
                real*8  :: r
            end function funct
        end interface
    end python module __user__routines
    
    
    python module wp ! in 
        interface  ! in :wp
            subroutine writepy(funct,n,r) ! in :wp:writepy.f90
                use __user__routines
                external funct
                integer intent(in) :: n
                real*8 intent(out) :: r
            end subroutine writepy
    
            subroutine call_writepy(funct,n,r)! in :wp:writepy.f90
                use __user__routines
                external funct
                integer intent(inout) :: n
                real*8 intent(out) :: r
                real*8 intent(out) :: q
            end subroutine call_writepy
        end interface 
    end python module wp
    
    ! This file was auto-generated with f2py (version:2).
    ! See http://cens.ioc.ee/projects/f2py2e/
    

    And use the following command when compiling in f2py the Fortran code: f2py -c wp.pyf writepy.f90 telling to the compiler to explicitly use the edited file “wp.pyf” as a reference
