08-244 To: J3 From: Michael Ingrassia Subject: Public Comment J32030 Date: 2008 July 08 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Commenter's Subject was "derived-type equivalence" The idea of describing derived type equivalence in terms of data entities, as is done in Section 4.5.1.3 of the Fortran 2008 draft is screwy. Type equivalence should be described in terms of the types and the derived-type definitions that define them. ----------------------------------------------------------------------
