--- Comment #9 from Paul Thomas <pault at gcc dot gnu.org> --- Author: pault Date: Mon Feb 19 22:09:13 2018 New Revision: 257827 URL: https://gcc.gnu.org/viewcvs?rev=257827&root=gcc&view=rev Log: 2018-02-19 Paul Thomas <pa...@gcc.gnu.org> PR fortran/83344 PR fortran/83975 * resolve.c (resolve_assoc_var): Rearrange the logic for the determination of the character length of associate names. If the associate name is missing a length expression or the length expression is not a constant and the target is not a variable, make the associate name allocatable and deferred length. * trans-decl.c (gfc_get_symbol_decl): Null the character length backend_decl for deferred length associate names that are not variables. Set 'length' to gfc_index_zero_node for character associate names, whose character length is a PARM_DECL. 2018-02-19 Paul Thomas <pa...@gcc.gnu.org> PR fortran/83344 PR fortran/83975 * gfortran.dg/associate_22.f90: Enable commented out test. * gfortran.dg/associate_36.f90: New test.
