Summary: ICE with pointer-bound remapping Product: gcc Version: 4.7.0 Status: UNCONFIRMED Keywords: ice-on-invalid-code Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: fortran AssignedTo: unassig...@gcc.gnu.org ReportedBy: bur...@gcc.gnu.org Assume: integer, target :: A(100) integer,pointer :: P(:,:) p(10,1:) => A end Compiling the program with gfortran results in: test.f90:4:0: internal compiler error: in gfc_trans_pointer_assignment, at fortran/trans-expr.c:5081 While the following variant gives: p(1:10,1:) => A 1 Error: Either all or none of the upper bounds must be specified at (1) Also the valid "p(1:10,1:10) => A" works. I think the compiler is right about rejecting the code, one finds: R733 pointer-assignment-stmt is data-pointer-object [ (bounds-spec-list) ] => data-target or data-pointer-object (bounds-remapping-list ) => data-target [...] R735 bounds-spec is lower-bound-expr : R736 bounds-remapping is lower-bound-expr : upper-bound-expr C716 (R733) If bounds-spec-list is specified, the number of bounds-specs shall equal the rank of data-pointer-object. C717 (R733) If bounds-remapping-list is specified, the number of bounds-remappings shall equal the rank of data-pointer-object. C718 (R733) If bounds-remapping-list is not specified, the ranks of data-pointer-object and data-target shall be the same. Thus, for bounds remapping both lower and upper bounds are required.
