------- Comment #5 from dominiq at lps dot ens dot fr 2007-05-31 19:33 -------
Compiled with g95, the code in comment #3 gives
In file pr32170_2.f90:10
call test( (/ "string1", "string2" /) )
In file pr32170_2.f90:16
subroutine test(chars)
2
Error: Passing array at (1) to assumed-shape actual argument at (2) via an
implicit interface
In file pr32170_2.f90:9
call test( str2 )
1
In file pr32170_2.f90:16
subroutine test(chars)
2
Error: Passing array at (1) to assumed-shape actual argument at (2) via an
implicit interface
These errors explain why the code is invalid.
