From: "burnus at gmx dot de" <sourceware-bugzilla@sourceware.org> To: gdb-prs@sourceware.org Subject: [Bug fortran/10036] New: Wide-character support for Fortran is missing Date: Mon, 06 Apr 2009 20:18:00 -0000 [thread overview] Message-ID: <20090406201850.10036.burnus@gmx.de> (raw) Fortran 2003 allows and Fortran 2008 mandates support for wide-character strings in Fortran compilers. Those are then of the type "ISO/IEC 10646-1:2000 UCS-4 character type". To my knowledge, GCC/gfortran 4.4/4.5 is the only Fortran compiler which supports wide strings so far. Example program (compile with "gfortran -fbackslash"; use "\u...." and "\U........" to enter Unicode characters). ------------------------------------- character(kind=4) :: c character(kind=4,len=5) :: str c = 4_'\u00AE' str = 4_'\u00AE\u01DD' open(6,encoding='utf-8') print *, c print *, str end ------------------------------------- Currently, gdb prints: (gdb) pt c type = character(kind=4) (1) (gdb) pt str type = character(kind=4) (5) (gdb) p str $1 = (92, 117, 48, 48, 65) (gdb) p c $2 = (92) (Support for entering, e.g., UTF-8 directly in the source code is planned but not yet implemented.) * * * The support in gdb should be relatively simple on top of the wide-char support for C, cf. http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2009-01/msg00533.html (I'm not sure whether that is the latest patch, but it is in the CVS tree.) -- Summary: Wide-character support for Fortran is missing Product: gdb Version: unknown Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: fortran AssignedTo: unassigned at sourceware dot org ReportedBy: burnus at gmx dot de CC: gdb-prs at sourceware dot org http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=10036 ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
