Bug #: 50252
Summary: Error message on "call x%y" (x not declared) can be
more informative
Classification: Unclassified
Product: gcc
Version: 4.6.1
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: fortran
AssignedTo: unassigned@gcc.gnu.org
ReportedBy: arjen.markus895@gmail.com
If you forget to declare a variable with type-bound procedures, say x,
and call one of the intended procedures anyway, the message is simply
that there was a syntax error.
The program:
program test123
call bb%print
end program test123
results in the following error message:
xx.f90:3.11:
call x%print
1
Error: Syntax error in CALL statement at (1)
This message could be made clearer by pointing out that a variable
may not be declared - if the statement contains a %:
Error: Syntax error in CALL statement at (1). Possibly a variable has not been
declared.
