Re: [Patch, fortran] PR27613 - Recursive functions


Richard,


That's quite believable. After all, Digital (and some other vendors) had recursion long before the f90 standard... and also before array- valued functions. I didn't recall all the details, but it makes sense.

That's a pity if it is a legacy snarl up; the Digital reference manual is extremely well written and is a superb condensation of the standard. Extensions are usually written in a murky green but this extract was not. It is posted on the web at many locations.
