J3/06-351 Date: October 31, 2006 To: J3 From: Aleksandar Donev Subject: Notes on Clause 13 References: 06-263r1, 06-007r1 I split the comments into several categories: 1) Simple editorial corrections 2) Requests to clarify or change wording 3) Technical issues _________________________________ Editorial corrections _________________________________ [379:8-10] We should typeset "array-element" in font code. [380:10-17] This text should be moved to the left. Similarly for [411:21-29]. [388:24+] Note 13.12 should be talking about IMAGE_INDEX, not THIS_IMAGE. Similarly Note 13.23 at [430:26+] should be talking about THIS_IMAGE _________________________________ Changes of wording _________________________________ [435:28+] We should give an example of using this function, maybe to initialize a static variable: CHARACTER(LEN=*), PARAMETER :: OPTIONS=COMPILER_OPTIONS() [436:0+] What exactly is the point of the last sentence in Note 13.25? I thought we should be encouraging the user to save the options to a variable so as to make sure the compiler puts that in the object code. Or are we encouraging compilers to always include this info in the object files? _________________________________ Technical questions _________________________________ Submitted as separate papers.
