When Coverity Fortran Syntax Analysis encounters a USE statement it must have the public information of the module at hand. So Coverity Fortran Syntax Analysis needs to analyze the referenced modules before the reference is encountered. Therefore Coverity Fortran Syntax Analysis analyzes the input files first for ”USE dependencies” and determines the order to analyze the input files.
The public information of analyzed modules is stored in the specified create or update library. If no create or update library has been specified this information is stored in a temporary library file. See Coverity Fortran Syntax Analysis library files for information on how to use library files.
You could also analyze modules first and store the public information in one or more libraries. When analyzing the referencing program units you must specify these libraries.
