How does C::B compile C code when you don't actually specifcy its location?

benkenobi01: What are you talking about? You're not providing a solution as far as I can see. The IDE is a tool. If the tool can do the job and saves you time you should use it. IDEs are not magick either.

FEA:
The thing is that it compiles OK and the resulting EXE passes benchmark testing for known outputs from the EXE. So it must be working even though I don't understand why. It seems stahta01's thought might be correct?

oBFusCATed:
Most probably it is. GCC uses the file extension to detect the source language. The answer is in the documentation of gfortran most probably, I doubt you'll find it here.

FEA:
Sounds good. I will accept that. I just wanted a few opinions about things. But since there is as a likely reason for this, and everything checks in the end, I am satisfied nothing is "incorrect" at least. Thanks.

This is another way to look at it - assume that it works if there are no signs it doesn't :)
