Sounds like the right place. Care should be taken because lengths are not required to be constants, like in the following: call foo(8, "short") call foo(2, "lenghty") contains subroutine foo(n,s) character(len=*) s integer n print *, [ character(len=n) :: 'test', s ] end subroutine end (I haven't yet found a compiler that does compile this and run it fine.) -- fxcoudert at gcc dot gnu dot org changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- AssignedTo|fxcoudert at gcc dot gnu dot|unassigned at gcc dot gnu |org |dot org Status|ASSIGNED |NEW http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=27997
