Subject: [Bug fortran/39490]  New: Non-standard assignment of arrays of character objects
Date: Wed, 18 Mar 2009 09:53:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <bug-39490-17466@http.gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/> (raw)

gfortran accepts the following syntax for the assignment of character objects:

CHARACTER(14) :: prop(4) = (/'name', 'data_file_name', 'Ho_units',
'mpolar_units'/)

Although this is convenient, is not according to the Fortran standard that
requires that all of the elements of a constructor be the same kind, type and
for characters, length.
According to this the correct syntax is:

CHARACTER(14) :: prop(4) = (/'name          ', 'data_file_name', &
  'Ho_units      ', 'mpolar_units  '/)
