To: J3 11-239 Subject: Comment GB20 on TS 29113 From: Bill Long Date: 2011 October 06 References: WG5/N1869, WG5/N1880 WG5/N1881 Discussion: Comment GB20 noted an incorrect article in the CFI_is_contiguous dv parameter description, and proposed allowing a scalar objects. This does not match the Description paragraph, nor the Fortran IS_CONTIGUOUS function. There was objection to returning false for a scalar being contiguous, so the compromise disallows them. Edits provided. Edits to N1869: In 5.3.5.6 in the description of the dv formal parameter to CFI_is_contiguous, change "the object." to "an array. The base_addr member of the C descriptor shall not be a null pointer." {First edit makes it parallel to the Description (and IS_CONTIGUOUS in Fortran). Added sentence disallows unallocated allocatable and disassociated pointers.} In 5.3.5.6, Result Value paragraph, change "object" to "array".
