Bug ID: 86116 Summary: Ambiguous generic interface not recognised Product: gcc Version: 8.1.0 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: fortran Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org Reporter: mscfd at gmx dot net Target Milestone: --- The following module should not compile. Calling sub(z) with z declared as "type(t), allocatable :: z" shows the ambiguity. Replacing "type(t) :: x" by "integer :: x" in the definition of s1 gives the expected error "Ambiguous interfaces in generic interface 'sub' for ‘s1’ at (1) and ‘s2’ at (2)". module mod private public sub type, public :: t end type t interface sub module procedure s1 module procedure s2 end interface sub contains subroutine s1(x) type(t) :: x ! with integer, gfortran recognises the ambiguity ! integer :: x end subroutine s1 subroutine s2(x) class(*), allocatable :: x end subroutine s2 end module mod
