Previous declaration error

Stephen_Painchaud — Mon, 15 Jun 2009 18:22:18 GMT

I get the following compile time error:

1>Compiling with Intel Visual Fortran 11.0.074 [IA-32]...
1>asbne.f90
1>D:\Documents and Settings\PAINSTEV\My Documents\Visual Studio 2005\Projects\mpr_apr3d\asbne.f90(2): error #5508: Declaration of routine 'IUSVUOAKNB' conflicts with a previous declaration

If I serch for the subroutine name I get only 2 references.

Find all "IUSVUOAKNB", Subfolders, Keep modified files open, Find Results 1, "Entire Solution"
D:\Documents and Settings\PAINSTEV\My Documents\Visual Studio 2005\Projects\mpr_apr3d\asbne.f90(2):SUBROUTINE iusvuoaknb(inpStyle, debug, pauseflag)
D:\Documents and Settings\PAINSTEV\My Documents\Visual Studio 2005\Projects\mpr_apr3d\prmod3d.f(167): CALL iusvuoaknb(inpStyle, debug, pauseflag)
Matching lines: 2 Matching files: 2 Total files searched: 45

I have checked the arguments, they are the same in the calling routine and the subroutine.

CHARACTER*10 inpStyle
LOGICAL debug
LOGICAL pauseflag

I don't understand how I can have a previous declaration. I have been using this subroutine for over a year in this solution. As you can see from the strange name it has, I randomly changed the original name so it could not conflict with anything in my solution. This is one of two subroutines that is giving me this error message. I have been using the 2nd routine for over a year also.

If I remove the file from the solution I get an unresolved external symbol when linking. If I add a few letter to just the subroutine name I get the same error:

Compiling with Intel Visual Fortran 11.0.074 [IA-32]...
asbne.f90
D:\Documents and Settings\PAINSTEV\My Documents\Visual Studio 2005\Projects\mpr_apr3d\asbne.f90(1): error #5508: Declaration of routine 'IUSVUOAKNBXSGAGA' conflicts with a previous declaration
compilation aborted for D:\Documents and Settings\PAINSTEV\My Documents\Visual Studio 2005\Projects\mpr_apr3d\asbne.f90 (code 1)

I don't think I have a previous declaration. Any ideas on what the real source of the error might be? I am using VS2005 with IVF11.

This is a bug in 11.0.074 (only). You can revert back to 11.0.072 or turn off "Check Routine Interfaces" under Fortran > Diagnostics.

Hi,

is it possible that this bug isn't yetfixed in 11.1.054?

Many greetings

Eberhard

That bug is fixed in 11.1.054. If you have an example that shows this error message, please post or attach it so we can take a look.

Dear Steve,

please have a look at this program:

program test

implicit none

double precision x, y, z

x = 1d0
y = 2d0 * x
z = 2d0 * y

call sub(x, y, z)

end program test

subroutine sub(a, b, c)

implicit none

double precision a, b
integer c

a = b + c

end subroutine

You will receive the error message "error #6633: The type of the actual argument differs from the type of the dummy argument. O:\TWPr\bf11054\main.f90 11" . This is of course absolutely correct.

You will correct:

program test

implicit none

double precision x, y, z

x = 1d0
y = 2d0 * x
z = 2d0 * y

call sub(x, y, z)

end program test

subroutine sub(a, b, c)

implicit none

double precision a, b, c

a = b + c

end subroutine

There should be no error message any more, but we receive:
"error #7001: Error in creating the compiled module file. [SUB__genmod] O:\TWPr\bf11054\main.f90 15"

Switching off "Generate Interface Blocks" fixes the problem (after a restart of Visual Studio), but switching off this option also switches off interface checking unfortunately.

Best regards

Eberhard

Well, this is a very different problem than the one this thread was started for. That said, I can't reproduce the problem with the current compiler (11.1.065, Update 6). The problem you have here seems to be one that is environment-related. I suggest deleting all of the __genmod.* files and trying again.

Steve, you are totally right.

Meanwhile I know a little bit more. The mentioned behaviour occurs only if the project is stored on a net drive of a novell network. Storing it locally or storing it on a net drive of a windows network it works fine.

I will report.

Thank you very much

Eberhard
