Dear Tomas, Apologies for the very long delay.
I was able to create a minimal version of the package (attached) that gives the
same exact warnings:
myzhpevx.cpp:22:16: warning: type of ‘zhpevx_’ does not match original
declaration [-Wlto-type-mismatch]
void F77_NAME(zhpevx)(char *jobz, char *range, char *uplo,
^
zhpevx.f:232:14: note: type mismatch in parameter 20
SUBROUTINE zhpevx(JOBZ, RANGE, UPLO, N, AP, VL, VU, IL, IU,
^
zhpevx.f:232:14: note: type ‘long int’ should match type ‘size_t’
zhpevx.f:232:14: note: ‘zhpevx’ was previously declared here
zhpevx.f:232:14: note: code may be misoptimized unless -fno-strict-aliasing is
used
I am under the impression that I am following quite closely what is written
here:
https://cran.csiro.au/doc/manuals/r-patched/R-exts.html#Fortran-character-strings
I tried many different things but I always end up with the same main warning
(i.e., type of ‘zhpevx_’ does not match original declaration ).
My version of fortran: GNU Fortran (Debian 8.3.0-6) 8.3.0 under Debian 10.
Thank you very much for any further help you could provide so that I could have
my package back to the CRAN.
Kind regards,
Pierre L.

My recommendation would be to try to minimize the example (package) as much as
possible so that it still has the problem, and then try to investigate why
exactly/where is the type mismatch. This is what helped me debug similar issues
- sometimes it was hard to tell from the Fortran warnings where exactly the
mismatched declarations were and why they were mismatched.
This process of minimization can already reveal the true source of the problem,
and if not, others may try to debug for you using the minimal example. A useful
tool is the Fortran option -fc-prototypes-external (see WRE for more details)
and I've also used dumps of the compiler tree before (-fdump-tree-all, more in
GCC documentation).

So if I understand correctly what you are saying, you suggest that FC_LEN_T was
not correctly defined by the CRAN team?
Should I just write something like (adding the middle instruction below to my
existing code above)?:
<quote>
#ifdef FC_LEN_T
typedef long long int FC_LEN_T;
extern "C" {

Thank you

With gcc 8.3.0, gfortran 8.3.0, and ld 2.33.1 from the mingw64 part of
rtools40 on Windows, if I misdefine the typedef FC_LEN_T and use the
-flto flag I get the sort of error messages that you report.

Hello Bill,
Thank you for your insight.
First, my impression, is that the problem comes from how I declare the type of
the function itself (and not its parameters), since the first (and only warning
they seen on the CRAN) message is:
<quote>
myzhpevx.cpp:13:16: warning: type of �zhpevx_� does not match original
declaration [-Wlto-type-mismatch]
void F77_NAME(zhpevx)(char *jobz, char *range, char *uplo,
</quote>
What I did is the following:
<quote>
void F77_NAME(zhpevx)(char *jobz, char *range, char *uplo,
const int *n, Rcomplex *ap, const double *vl,
const double *vu, const int *il, const int *iu,
const double *abstol, int *m, double *w,
Rcomplex *z, const int *ldz, Rcomplex *work, double *rwork,
int *iwork, int *ifail, int *info,
FC_LEN_T jobz_len, FC_LEN_T range_len, FC_LEN_T uplo_len);
char cjobz[2];
strncpy(cjobz, jobz[0], 1);
cjobz[1] = '\0';
char crange[2];
strncpy(crange, range[0], 1);
crange[1] = '\0';
char cuplo[2];
strncpy(cuplo, uplo[0], 1);
cuplo[1] = '\0';
F77_CALL(zhpevx)(cjobz, crange, cuplo, &n[0], ap, &vl[0], &vu[0], &il[0],
&iu[0], &abstol[0], &m[0],
w, z, &ldz[0], work, rwork, iwork, ifail, &info[0], strlen(cjobz),
strlen(crange), strlen(cuplo));
</quote>
Do you see anything wrong with the above?
Thank you
Best
Pierre

Have you tried what is recommended in
https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gfortran/Argument-passing-conventions.html
?
<quote>
For arguments of CHARACTER type, the character length is passed as a
hidden argument at the end of the argument list. For deferred-length
strings, the value is passed by reference, otherwise by value. The
character length has the C type size_t (or INTEGER(kind=C_SIZE_T) in
Fortran). Note that this is different to older versions of the GNU
Fortran compiler, where the type of the hidden character length
argument was a C int. In order to retain compatibility with older
versions, one can e.g. for the following Fortran procedure
subroutine fstrlen (s, a)
character(len=*) :: s
integer :: a
print*, len(s)
end subroutine fstrlen
define the corresponding C prototype as follows:
#if __GNUC__ > 7
typedef size_t fortran_charlen_t;
#else
typedef int fortran_charlen_t;
#endif
void fstrlen_ (char*, int*, fortran_charlen_t);
In order to avoid such compiler-specific details, for new code it is
instead recommended to use the ISO_C_BINDING feature.
Note with C binding, CHARACTER(len=1) result variables are returned
according to the platform ABI and no hidden length argument is used
for dummy arguments; with VALUE, those variables are passed by value.

Dear Ivan,
Thank you very much for your response.
I do not have more information than the one I gave in my previous email. (And
on top of that, the computer I was using with Debian SID, a recent version of
gfortran and the last version of R-devel, just broke.)
My problem is that the CRAN team won't accept to publish my package until this
WARNING problem is solved. And because I am unable to observe the warning on my
side (I could not with the desktop that just broke, and I still can't with my
current laptop with Debian 10), I have no clue on how to suppress this warning.
Thank you in advance for any other advice.
Best regards,
Pierre

Do you have access to the notes produced by the compiler in addition
to the warnings? Do they spell the same difference?
If yes, the warning is likely to be safe to ignore. m4/R.m4 notes that,
while gfortran < 8 uses int instead of size_t for hidden size arguments,
it doesn't make a practical difference.
