Rename Intrinsic (subroutine)

CALL Rename(Path1, Path2, Status)

Path1: CHARACTER; scalar; INTENT(IN).

Path2: CHARACTER; scalar; INTENT(IN).

Status: INTEGER(KIND=1); OPTIONAL; scalar; INTENT(OUT).

Intrinsic groups: unix.

Description:

Renames the file Path1 to Path2. A null character (`CHAR(0)') marks the end of the names in Path1 and Path2---otherwise, trailing blanks in Path1 and Path2 are ignored. See rename(2). If the Status argument is supplied, it contains 0 on success or a non-zero error code upon return.

Some non-GNU implementations of Fortran provide this intrinsic as only a function, not as a subroutine, or do not support the (optional) Status argument.

For information on other intrinsics with the same name: See section Rename Intrinsic (function).
