Possible bug with with -gen-dep and -syntax-only

Richard_Gordon — Tue, 01 May 2012 12:27:35 GMT

Hi All,

I may have found a bug when using -gen-dep and -syntax-only. Please consider the following samples files and code:

mymod.f90

[fortran]module mod_data implicit none character(len=*), parameter :: myhello = "hello world" end module mod_data module [/fortran]

main.f90

[fortran]program hi use mod_data, only: myhello implicit none print*, myhello end program [/fortran]

I compile with version 12.1.3 20120212 (64 bit).

When executingifort -c -gen-dep mymod.f90 main.f90I get the following:

[bash]mod_data.mod : \ mymod.f90 mymod.o : \ mymod.f90 main.o : \ main.f90 mod_data.mod [/bash]

This is the correct list of dependencies.

When executingifort -c -gen-dep -syntax-only mymod.f90 main.f90 I get

[bash]mod_data.mod : \ mymod.f90 mymod.o : \ mymod.f90 mymod.o : \ main.f90 mod_data.mod [/bash]

This is the incorrect list of dependencies.

Please let me know if I've missed something. Thank you.
