fortran modules' subroutine name conflict

Question

I have two different modules each one has the same subroutine. main program will call one of them based on a certain condition. I want to avoid renaming each of these subroutine to a different name.

You need to post some bare code and have you tried the USE statement defining aliases? — John Alexiou

If you have two modules A and B containing the same method foo() then first you can create a local alias with

program SOModNames
use A, fooA => foo
use B, fooB => foo
implicit none

! Variables
real X(10), Y(10)

call fooA(X,10)
call fooB(Y,10)

end program SOModNames

Unofrtunatelty you cannot scope to a module with call A::foo(X,10) for example.
