------- Comment #10 from dennis dot wassel at googlemail dot com 2008-11-10 13:32 ------- Subject: Re: RANDOM_SEED: PUT= check array size at compile time
> The documentation says only that the size argument has to be an integer. See > http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gfortran/RANDOM_005fSEED.html On the contrary: The documentation clearly and concisely states SIZE (Optional) Shall be a scalar and of type default INTEGER, with INTENT(OUT). It specifies the minimum size of the arrays used with the PUT and GET arguments. Admitted, it does not say SIZE = 8, because this value may be compiler- and system-dependent (may also be 12 for gfortran on some platforms), which is why the standard provides the SIZE argument in the first place. I fail to see the problem - could you clarify? -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=37159
