JSON RPC static library for Fortran proof of concept

[Tony Lewis]

I have created a static library that can be used with Fortran programs to act as a server with JSON RPC compliant clients. The source code and documentation can be found on this repository on Github:

https://github.com/7LConsultingLLC/Fortran-JSON-RPC-2.0-static-library---proof-of-concept/tree/main/

I am a retired Mechanical Engineer and not a computer science guru, but created this to allow for an alternate way to send data (bi directionally) between a running Fortran program and a separate client program of another language in a Windows envrironment

 Specific details include:

1) Demonstration program is using visual basic.net for the client program

2) All Fortran and Visual Basic programs and libraries developed using VB.NET and Intel Fortran compiler IFX in Visual Studio.

3) The inter-process communication between the VB client and the Fortran server is via Windows named pipes.

Open source, hope this helps someone in a future project.
