Bad formatting with g-format

[Harald]

Hello, there is a bug in g-formatting which makes the following example program ifort_g_format_bug write (*,'(g6.1)') 1.0 ! Expected output: 1. end program ifort_g_format_bug output '******' (6 stars) instead of '1.'. All other compilers I tested produce the expected output. Harald

I wish the user interface were more user-friendly.  I can hardly recognize the code I posted.

program ifort_g_format_bug
  write (*,'(g6.1)') 1.0         ! Expected output: 1.
end program ifort_g_format_bug

This is fixed in the version coming out in September.

Good to know!

Thanks,

Steve,

this issue appears to be fixed now.  With

Intel(R) Fortran Compiler XE for applications running on IA-32, Version 14.0.1.106 Build 20131008

I get the expected result.

Thanks,

Harald
