Hi all, so I have learned that proposing to write "speaking code" is not very well taken.
Anyway, there is a patch (in two parts) hanging about changing the character length from int to size_t. It looks ok to me, but I do not have the privilege to ok it. Furthermore am I still not convinced that we can't do anything about the failing testcase allocate_deferred_char_scalar_1. So how do we proceed? - Andre On Tue, 20 Dec 2016 17:08:54 +0100 Jakub Jelinek <ja...@redhat.com> wrote: > On Tue, Dec 20, 2016 at 05:04:54PM +0100, Andre Vehreschild wrote: > > Well, then how about: > > > > #define gfc_size_t_zero_node build_int_cst (size_type_node, 0) > > > > We can't get any faster and for new and old gfortran-hackers one > > identifier's meaning is faster to grasp than two's. > > Such macros can cause various maintenance issues, so I'm not in favor of > that.
