Intel® Fortran Compiler 17.0 Developer Guide and Reference
The asynchronous specifier determines whether asynchronous I/O occurs for a data transfer statement. It takes the following form:
ASYNCHRONOUS=i-expr
i-expr |
Is a scalar character initialization expression that evaluates to 'YES' for asynchronous I/O or 'NO' for synchronous I/O. The value 'YES' should not appear unless the data transfer statement specifies a file unit number for io-unit. The default value is 'NO'. Trailing blanks in the expression are ignored. The values specified are without regard to case. |
Asynchronous I/O is permitted only for external files opened with an OPEN statement that specifies ASYNCHRONOUS='YES'.
When an asynchronous I/O statement is executed, the pending I/O storage sequence for the data transfer operation is defined to be:
The set of storage units specified by the I/O item list or by the NML= specifier
The storage units specified by the SIZE= specifier
