Mime-Version: 1.0 To: sc22wg5@dkuug.dk Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII; name="Text_1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit ... the rest of the "Quality Improvement" items ... JLW [300:23+] at the end of the section, add the constraint "Constraint: A pure procedure shall not contain a ." [301:26-27] add double quotes around '(11) in an assign-stmt' and change 'assign-stmt' to italics; also, at end of lines [301:22], [301:25], double quote missing [303:9] replace "This facility" with "Some uses of this facility may be replaced with an automatic character length function, where the length of the function result is declared with a specification expression. Other uses"; add the following as the second paragraph in section B.2.5 "Note that dummy arguments of a function may be assumed character length." [306:3] add at the end of the line, "(4.3.1.2)" [306:32 - 307:20] add "(4.4.1)" to the title of this section [323: 4] change 'processor defined' to 'processor dependent' [330:31] change "shall be more general" to "needs to be more general" [331:26] change "TARGET attribute," to "TARGET attribute and is scalar or assumed-shape," [333:14] append "(7.1.6.1)" [343] at top add "In the following, entries in {{{italics}}} denote BNF syntax terms entries in {{{bold face}}} denote language keywords; page numbers in bold denote primary or defining entries. [343] Annex D, entry for '**'; add 84 Annex D, entry for '/'; what about the '/' that appears on 161? Annex D, entry for '::'; add 57,58,59,195,196 Annex D, entry for ';'; add 27 Annex D, entry for '='; what about '=' in DO statements and Type statements. Annex D, add entries for "advancing input/output statement" and "alternate return" Annex D, add entries for "automatic deallocation" (since it is mentioned in the Intro), bounds, branching, character length parameter, character intrinsic assignment, character string edit descriptor, character storage unit Annex D, entry for 'boz constant' While the syntax term appears in the text of the standard, the term "boz constant" does not. There should not be an entry for it in the index. Instead 'binary constant', 'octal constant' and 'hexadecimal constant' should each list 32. Annex D, entry for 'blank common', change '68' to '68-70' Annex D, entry for 'characteristics of a procedure', If this is in the index, then shouldn't the other types of characteristics also be listed? Annex D, entry for 'common-block-name' should be '' as it is a grammar term. Annex D, add entries for 'component', 'real' and 'complex' under 'constant', 'construct' [345] Annex D, delete entry for 'derived-type' under 'constructor'. The standard does not refer to derived-type constructors. Or change it to 'derived-type value' as section 4 uses the term 'derived-type value constructor' once. Annex D, entry for 'conformance' We need multiple entries for the term conformance as it is used in two ways in the standard. There is shape conformance and there is conformance to Fortran 90 and Fortran 77. Annex D, entry for 'default initialization'; 38 should be in bold. Change 285 to 284-287. [346] Annex D, add entries for 'definable', 'deleted features', 'explicit initialization', 'executable statement', 'ENTRY statement' (for consistency with other keyword statements), 'elemental intrinsic subroutine' (since function is listed) Annex D, entry for 'dummy arguments' 'restrictions' should not be the only reference. Add to the 'dummy arguments' line 197. Annex D, entry for 'EQUIVALENCE statement' add 283 Annex D, entry for 'edit descriptors', referring the reader to 'format descriptors' seems odd, as 'format descriptors' does not appear to be used by the standard. [347] Annex D, add entries for 'FORALL statement', 'field width', 'Fortran character set' Annex D, entry for '' should be '' Annex D, entry for 'formatting' It seems odd that all of these numbers are in bold. Was that the intention? Annex D, entry for 'ICHAR intrinsic' Why are some intrinsics listed in the index but others not? If the intent is to list those intrinsics that are referenced outside of section 13, then some are missing such as CHAR (section 4) and RESHAPE (section 4). Annex D, entry for 'intrinsic', 'subroutine' should be added. This entry has an odd layout as the term intrinsic applies to types, operations etc, but only the subprogram oriented entries are indented under intrinsic. Annex D, entry for 'intrinsic operations' Why is a separate indented entry made for 'logical', but not for other operations types that are listed outside of section 7? eg relational and concatenation are both referenced in section 4. [348] Annex D, add entries for 'iteration count', , 'nonadvancing input/output statement', 'nonexecutable statements', 'numeric constant' Annex D, delete entry for 'names', it does not provide any more information than already provided by 'name' and ''. [349] Annex D, add entries for 'obsolescent features', 'override' Annex D, entry for 'PARAMETER', does there really need to be one entry for PARAMETER in bold and another not in bold? Annex D, entry for 'pointer nullification', 40 should be in bold. [350] Annex D, add entries for 'reference', 'shape conformance', 'source forms', 'statement entity' Annex D, entry for 'statement label', should the entry for 'statement labels' be combined with this one. [351] Annex D, entry for 'statements', missing from the list of statements: 'FORALL', 'MODULE', 'MODULE PROCEDURE', 'PROGRAM', 'SUBROUTINE' [353] Annex D, add entries for 'Unconditional GOTO', 'ultimate component', 'unspecified storage unit', , 'value separator', 'whole array', 'zero character length'
