Issue 312 - Additional KIND Arguments

To:	J3

From:	Craig Dedo

Subject:	Issue 312 - Additional KIND Arguments

Issue

Paper 00-352 added additional arguments to several (12) intrinsic procedures. This should probably be noted in1.5.1 much like the additional intrinsics. This could invalidate formerly standard user-written generic extensions. Not that I think it a big deal, but it is as pertinent as other incompatibilities noted.

Analysis

I agree. We should add this feature as an incompatibility with Fortran 95.

Edits

Edits are with respect to the 01-007.

[3:16]	Add, at the end of the first sentence in the paragraph, ", and the interfaces of several intrinsic procedures defined by the Fortran 95 standard have been extended with additional optional arguments".

[3:18]	Add, "or changed" after "new".

[3:20-25]	Delete the J3 internal note.
