To: J3 J3/18-172 From: Malcolm Cohen Subject: Response to DE-008 Date: 2018-June-11 1. Introduction --------------- The text in 8.5.8.4 (p4 and p5 in particular) is worded such that it also applies to assumed-rank allocatables and pointers, but this is easy to overlook. 2. Response to DE-008 --------------------- Accepted with modification. 2. Edits to N2146 ----------------- Page 105, 8.5.8.7 Assumed-rank entity, p1, After "this rank can be zero." Insert new sentence "The bounds and shape of an assumed-rank entity with the ALLOCATABLE or POINTER attribute are determined as specified in 8.5.8.4." {8.5.8.4 is \ref{D5:Deferred-shape array}.} ===END===
