(In reply to comment #17) > Richard Maine says: [...]. > That is correct. The B edit descriptor is only for integers. Actually, does it matter whether BOZ for real/complex are valid in F2003 or not? I think in Fortran 2003 it is clear that they are valid (cf. last paragraph in comment 15). As we currently do not do any compile-time format data-type checks and as it is no constraint, can't we simply implement it as F2008 feature and leave the decision whether BOZ or only OZ or only Z is F2003 to the language lawyers? -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=41711
