Sharing File Access, Channels?

The Question is:

 
How to convert a Fortran logical unit number into a standard C file pointer?
 
Assuming a Fortran programme in which a valid file is open, how to access a C
 function requesting a argument of type FILE*.
 
Thanks.
 


The Answer is :

 
  Open the file with the shared access keyword, and use a second channel
  to the file. (Mixing language I/O accesses on the same channel is not
  recommended.)
