[Paraview-developers] Linker error building Fortran90FullExample

[Andy Bauer]

Hi Thomas,

If you change from coproc to main in the "program" and "end program" lines
in FEDriver.f90 does that fix the problem?

I'm working on a fix for this but don't have access to any MSVS compilers.

Thanks,
Andy
