TYPE(c_ptr),PARAMETER :: c_null_ptr = c_ptr(...)This is a C null pointer, equivalent to (void *)0 in C.

TYPE c_funptr
PRIVATE
...
END TYPE
This type represents a C function pointer, and is used when passing procedure
arguments to a C routine.
The interface to the C routine is declared with a TYPE(c_funptr) dummy
argument, and values of this type can be created by using the function
c_funloc on a procedure name (see below for restrictions).
TYPE c_ptr
PRIVATE
...
END TYPE
This type represents a ‘(void *)’ C data pointer, and is used
when passing pointer arguments to a C routine.
The interface to the C routine is declared with a TYPE(c_ptr) dummy
argument; values of this type are created using the c_loc function
(Fortran) pointer or target (see below for restrictions).
A C pointer can be turned into a Fortran pointer using the c_f_pointer
function (see below for the full description).
All the procedures provided are generic and not specific. The c_associated and c_sizeof functions are pure.
In the descriptions below, TYPE(*) means any type (including intrinsic types), and INTEGER(*) means any kind of INTEGER type.
INTERFACE c_associated
PURE LOGICAL FUNCTION c_associated...(c_ptr_1,c_ptr_2) ! Specific name not visible
TYPE(c_ptr),INTENT(IN) :: c_ptr_1,c_ptr_2
OPTIONAL c_ptr_2
END
PURE LOGICAL FUNCTION c_associated...(c_ptr_1,c_ptr_2) ! Specific name not visible
TYPE(c_funptr),INTENT(IN):: c_ptr_1,c_ptr_2
OPTIONAL c_ptr_2
END
END INTERFACE
Returns true if and only if c_ptr_1 is not a null pointer and,
if c_ptr_2 is present, the same as c_ptr_2.
INTERFACE c_f_pointer
SUBROUTINE c_f_pointer...(cptr,fptr) ! Specific name not visible
TYPE(c_ptr),INTENT(IN) :: cptr
TYPE(*),INTENT(OUT),POINTER :: fptr
END
SUBROUTINE c_f_pointer...(cptr,fptr,shape) ! Specific name not visible
TYPE(c_ptr),INTENT(IN) :: cptr
TYPE(*),INTENT(OUT),POINTER :: fptr(...)
INTEGER(*),INTENT(IN) :: shape(:)
END
END INTERFACE
Converts a C address to a Fortran pointer.
If fptr is an array, shape must be an array whose size is equal
to the rank of fptr.
INTERFACE c_f_procpointer ... END INTERFACEThis procedure is not available in release 5.1. It converts TYPE(c_funptr) into Fortran procedure pointers.
INTERFACE c_funloc
TYPE(c_funptr) FUNCTION c_funloc...(x) ! Specific name not visible
EXTERNAL x
END
END INTERFACE
Returns the C address of a Fortran procedure, which must be a dummy procedure,
external procedure or module procedure, and must have the BIND(C) attribute.
Note that since Fortran procedure pointers are not available in release 5.1, invoking a procedure through a TYPE(c_funptr) value can only be done from C.
INTERFACE c_loc
TYPE(c_ptr) FUNCTION c_loc...(x) ! Specific name not visible
TYPE(*),TARGET :: x
END
END INTERFACE
Returns the C address of a Fortran variable, which must have the TARGET
attribute and must not be polymorphic (i.e. it must not declared with the
CLASS keyword).
If x is a pointer, it must be associated with a target; if x is
allocatable, it must be allocated with non-zero size.
If x is an array, it must have interoperable type and type parameters.
INTERFACE c_sizeof
PURE INTEGER(c_size_t) FUNCTION c_sizeof...(x) ! Specific name not visible
TYPE(*) :: x(..)
END FUNCTION
END INTERFACE
The actual argument x must be interoperable. The result is the same as the C sizeof operator applied to the conceptually corresponding C entity; that is, the size of x in bytes.
For scalars, this will be equal to STORAGE_SIZE(x)/STORAGE_SIZE(C_char_'A'); for an array, the scalar value is multiplied by SIZE(x).
