------- Comment #1 from burnus at gcc dot gnu dot org 2010-07-26 19:17 ------- Related - the original version of gfortran.dg/char_result_4.f90 shows:
pure elemental function double (x) 1 Error: ELEMENTAL procedure 'double' at (1) must have an explicit interface Expected: This message is shown for the CALL to the procedure and not for the definition. Note 1: I quickly tried to generate a minimal example, but I did not succeed. Note 2: As part of PR 40873 the example will be fixed, please remember this when testing. * * * Another item to do argument checking if there is an INTERFACE present. A simple use check cannot be done as the INTERFACE might have different argument names than the real procedure, which will fail. Thus gfc_procedure_use needs to be augmented by having a mode which goes trough the list one-to-one without checking the presence of other arguments. (Assumes that list has been reordered). Or, one adds a function which simply compares the formal arguments, which is probably the better approach. -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=45086
