To: J3 11-137r2 From: Reinhold Bader and John Reid / Bill Long Subject: Minor items from N1844 Date: 2011 February 16 References: N1838 INTRODUCTION: This paper collects (with one exception) the minor comments from N1844 that are not already covered in other papers. (The exception is a comment on section 5.2.7 para 1 which needs a separate paper since it may involve a technical change). EDITS to N1838: [5:11] Change "the bounds" to "the rank and bounds". [5:21+] Delete NOTE 3.1 {Similar content is added in paper 11-142r1.} [9:30] Add period at line end. [11:3] Replace "is equal to (CFI_index_t)-2" with "shall have the value -2." {Note to Editor: Create a minus two with $-2$.} [14:3-5] Replace paragraph 1 of 5.2.6.1 Functions/General with "The functions described in this subclause and the structure of the C descriptor provide a C function with the capability to interoperate with a Fortran procedure that has allocatable, assumed-length character, assumed-rank, assumed-shape, or data pointer arguments." [14:7-8] Replace "Pointer objects" by "A Fortran pointer". [15:12] Delete comma after "void *" and the space after "CFI_cdesc_t *". [15:39] Add comma after "pointer". [16:14] Change "while the members of the descriptor are capable of being referenced" to "while the descriptor represents the object". [17:17-19] Delete 5.3 [The contents of 5.2.6.7 and 5.2.7 make this redundant.] [20:4] Change "the shape" to "the rank, shape,".
