Package: fort77
Version: 1.15-8
Severity: normal
Hello there,
fort77 fails to return reliable failure upon either
- preprocessing errors, and
- syntax errors in some cases.
For example, this should fail due to a preprocessing error:
$ cat > a.f <<\EOF
program main
#if 1
#include <ac_nonexistent.h>
#endif
end
EOF
$ fort77 -c -cpp a.f; echo $?
<stdin>:3: error: ac_nonexistent.h: No such file or directory
MAIN main:
0
$
This should fail reliably with a compile error, but doesn't if -g is
also passed:
$ cat > a.f <<\EOF
program main
#if 1
choke me
#endif
end
EOF
$ fort77 -c -cpp a.f; echo $?
MAIN main:
Error on line 3 of <stdin>: unclassifiable statement (starts "chokeme")
/usr/bin/fort77: aborting compilation
255
$ fort77 -c -g -cpp a.f; echo $?
MAIN main:
Error on line 3 of <stdin>: unclassifiable statement (starts "chokeme")
0
$
(I'm working on Autoconf macros to detect Fortran preprocessing flags,
in case you're wondering.)
Cheers, and thanks for maintaining Debian,
Ralf
