Bug ID: 98558
Summary: Scalar character parameter does not print warning if
actual length >1
Product: gcc
Version: 9.2.0
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: fortran

test program
More of a suggestion than a bug (I don't see memory issues).
If I initialize a CHARACTER, PARAMETER variable with a string whose lenght is
>1, no warnings are printed in gcc/gfortran 9.2.0:
program test_char_parameter
implicit none
character , parameter :: a = 'a' ! OK
character , parameter :: b = 'bbbbb' ! NO -> No warnings printed!
character(len=1), parameter :: c = 'ccccc' ! NO -> No warnings printed!
character(len=*), parameter :: d = 'ddddd' ! OK
print *, a
print *, b
print *, c
print *, d
end program test_char_parameter
Best,
Federico
