Re: [Patch, fortran] PR37735 - Allocatable components in vectors of derived types cause ICE on assignment

Maybe we could also focus a bit on bounds checking.  There are numerous
things we don't check at the moment (array intrinsics and also other
cases), and I'd like some improvement there :-)

One option that would help me (and probably countless others) to debug legacy code is an -fcheck-size option.


The meaning of this option would be:

Check if array references fall within the extent of the array.

E.g.

        REAL A(10,10)
        A = 1.0
        CALL SUB(A,10)
        END
        SUBROUTINE SUB(A, N)
        REAL A(N, N)
        PRINT*,A(1,N*N)
        END

Kind regards,
