--- Comment #33 from Tobias Burnus <burnus at gcc dot gnu.org> 2012-05-13 12:45:46 UTC --- STATUS: Many issues have been fixed, but several still exist. - See list of bugs which depend on/block this PR. Regarding the bugs reported/mentioned directly in this PR: - Comment 0 seems to be fixed except for the array assignment, cf. PR 50221. - Comment 14 is the same as PR 51055 (A simple REPEAT, which is suggested as alternative in comment 14 does not yet work, cf. submitted patch and PR 49110 and PR 51055) - Comment 24: The first example (first commented "Does not work." line) still fails. Warning: It seems to use an an endless loop in which it keeps allocating memory! As comment 9 mentioned: - Deferred-length string ARRAYS have still some issues; for instance PR 50221. - Deferred-length strings as derived-type COMPONENTS are unimplemented That's PR 51976.
