Hi all,
ifort and gfortran compile the following without complaining:
$ cat mtest.f90
module mtest
implicit none
character(len=5), parameter :: test(5) =
["tan","atan2","atan","sin","asin"]
end module mtest
Not so with g95:
$ g95 -c -o mtest.o mtest.f90
In file mtest.f90:3
character(len=5), parameter :: test(5) =
["tan","atan2","atan","sin","asin"]
1
Error: Element in character array constructor at (1) has length 5
instead of 3
Does the standard say anything about what the compiler should do with
the elements in a character array that have a length shorter than the
one defined by its length, or should i always pad string parameters
with spaces by hand?
Still, this is a bug i think, as g95 doesn't take the declared length
into account but uses the length of the first element in the array?
Greetings,
Wim
