HP Fortran v2.9 for HP-UX 11i v2 Release Note5991-0697

HP Fortran for HP-UX v2.9

Previous Fixes

Chapter 144

• All of the compiler directive code has been reimplemented. Many observed and

undiscovered bugs with memory class and loop-based directives have been fixed.

• An unsubscripted integer array used as a FORMAT is now assumed to be a character

string format, and not an ASSIGN statement format.

• Zero-length character type array constructors caused an internal error.

•Theftnxx environment variables were ignored in wide mode.

• When a library (.a file) was listed several times on the command line, all but one of them

was (incorrectly) removed.

• Cray-style pointers were only 32 bits in wide mode unless +autodbl[4] was used. Now

they are always 8 bytes in wide mode.

• In previous versions of Fortran, space deallocation could potentially fail. This occurred

when initialized commons were used in the presence of equivalences.

• Additional NULL pointer checks have been added to the Fortran compiler. This fixes

compile-time aborts in the optimizer portion of the compiler.

Fortran90 on HP-UX/PA-RISC

The following list describes issues that were resolved and included in previous versions of HP

FortranonHP-UX/PA-RISC.

PHSS_31012

• Wrong answers were received when slicing zero base arrays of structures.

• The compiler asserted after receiving an error of ‘too many array abounds specified’.

• The compiler asserted when processing arrays with in structures with in modules.

PHSS_30922

• There was a compile-time assert from initialized private types.

• Wrong answers were received from INT1 or INT2 right shifts.

• There was a compiler abort with complicated aliased variables.

PHSS_30774

• An enhancement was made to allow unary +/- after binary +/-.

• Occasionally, lbound/ubound received wrong answers for zero size array dimensions.
