deadlock during debug

Isabela_Z_ — Tue, 12 Aug 2014 06:42:02 GMT

Hi everybody,

I'm trying to find where inside my program appears the first NaN var. So I created the following function:

logical FUNCTION testanan(var)

implicit none            
real(8) var

if (var /= var) then
    print*, 'deu NAN na', var
    TESTANAN=.TRUE.
    READ(*,*)
endif

ENDFUNCTION

I run in debug mode and when the message appears in the screen, I press pause to find out in which line the NaN appears. But when I do that, deadlock happens...

How can I identify where is my first NaN happens?

Regards

Why not remove the READ and

Why not remove the READ and place a debugger break point on TESTNAN=?

Then when break is hit, single step out of the function.

I second Jim's comments.

I second Jim's comments.

NOTE: If "var /= var" is false, the function value is undefined.

Thanks a lot Jim, I will try

Thanks a lot Jim, I will try your suggestion and I gonna fix the result.

Best regards

Please don't use var /= var

Please don't use var /= var to test for NaN. Use the intrinsic IEEE_ISNAN from intrinsic module IEEE_ARITHMETIC. The compiler might choose to delete your comparison under normal optimization. If you want to do such tests, you must compile with the option /fp:strict
