Object-Oriented Fortran Explained

Object-Oriented Fortran was an object-oriented extension of Fortran produced by Absoft Corporation as part of their series of Fortran compilers. In Object-Oriented Fortran, data items could be grouped into objects, which can be instantiated and executed in parallel. It was available for Sun, Iris, iPSC, and nCUBE,[1] [2] but is no longer supported.

Object-oriented features are now fully integrated into standard Fortran, since Fortran 2003.[3] [4]
