Cray-like ptrs in IF 7,0+

[akagm]

dear ALL, please help...

I use cray-like pointers in CVF 6.0+ for dynamics sub calls in the next manner:

subroutine someSub()
end subroutine someSub

subroutine newSub()
end subroutine newSub

pointer (ptr, someSub)
...
ptr = Loc(newSub)

call someSub() !!! call newSub not someSub!

But in the IF 7.0 this doesn't work, because

"sub name as a pointee doesn't allowed here..."

But this method is very important for me:
mixed-language programming, dll etc...

what I must do?

thanks in advice...

Wait for 8.0. Or, use something like this:

call callit(%val(ptr))
...
subroutine callit (rout)
external rout
call rout
end subroutine callit

//Wait for 8.0. Or, use something like this...

really?
You'll remove these restrictions?

this will be great!

8.0 will include the "pointer to procedure" extension of CVF as well as many other CVF features.
