Currently, there the interface of procedure calls is only checked if they are
use or host associated. It would be useful as error check, if optionally for
all procedures which are neither part of a module nor of the program, a .MOD
file could be created which contains their interface.
Example (put in one or two files, compile together or separately):
-----------------------
program main
real(8) :: number
number = run_u()
end program main
function run_u()
implicit none
real(4) :: run_u
run_u = 42.0
end function run_u
-----------------------
The Intel compiler supports such an option:
-gen-interface -warn interface
this creates:
run_u_mod.mod
and
run_u_mod.f90
------------------------------------
!COMPILER-GENERATED INTERFACE MODULE: Wed Jan 31 20:46:20 2007
MODULE RUN_U_mod
INTERFACE
FUNCTION RUN_U RESULT(RUN_U_0)
REAL(KIND=4) :: RUN_U_0
END FUNCTION RUN_U
END INTERFACE
END MODULE RUN_U_mod
------------------------------------
which are then used. (Actually, ifort remains silent about the problem above.
It probably converts the real(4) into a real(8), but does not warn!)
Expected:
- gfortran has a similar option, which creates a .MOD file
- Maybe gfortran should also have another option to create a .f90 file
(Don't unify these options; as the .f90 files clutter only the directory.)
