The code below does not compile: the error returned by the compiler is "error #8383: The dummy arguments of an overriding and overridden binding that correspond by position must have the same characteristics, except for the type of the passed object dummy arguments. [PROC]".
However, the alternate lines (with simultaneous use of PASS, or nothing for both PROCEDURE statements) compile ok.
I am struggling a bit to understand this behavior.
MODULE M1 IMPLICIT NONE TYPE,ABSTRACT :: T1 INTEGER :: I CONTAINS PROCEDURE(PROC),DEFERRED,NOPASS :: PROC ! PROCEDURE(PROC),DEFERRED,PASS :: PROC ! PROCEDURE(PROC),DEFERRED :: PROC END TYPE T1 PRIVATE :: PROC ABSTRACT INTERFACE SUBROUTINE PROC(ARG) IMPORT :: T1 IMPLICIT NONE INTEGER :: A CLASS(T1),INTENT(INOUT) :: ARG END SUBROUTINE PROC END INTERFACE END MODULE M1 MODULE M2 USE M1 IMPLICIT NONE TYPE,EXTENDS(T1) :: T2 REAL :: R CONTAINS PROCEDURE,NOPASS :: PROC ! PROCEDURE(PROC),PASS :: PROC ! PROCEDURE(PROC) :: PROC END TYPE T2 PRIVATE :: PROC INTERFACE MODULE SUBROUTINE PROC(ARG) IMPLICIT NONE INTEGER :: A CLASS(T2),INTENT(INOUT) :: ARG END SUBROUTINE PROC END INTERFACE END MODULE M2

As shown... the argument is not a passed argument (because NOPASS is specified). When overriding a binding, all the characteristics of dummy arguments that are not passed arguments must match. The characteristics of an argument include its type.
The type of the argument for the interface for the deferred binding in `T1` is `T1`, while the type of the corresponding argument for the procedure for the overriding binding is different - it is `T2`.
For a passed argument, the type of the passed argument may differ - the passed argument is required to have the same type as the type definition that has the binding.

Thanks - I got it. I made the mistake to assume that ARG was still required among my procedure arguments when NOPASS is used; it's clearly not the case.
I got my program to work, thanks again for your help!
