IVF 10.1.019 /fpscomp:ioformat compiler flag bug?

[gdw]

Intel Visual Fortran version IA-32, Version 10.1.019 for Windows

hi,

The "Microsoft Fortran PowerStation Compatible Files" /fpscomp:ioformat compiler option appears to be non-working.

If I compile (sample from the IVF help (ms-its:C:Program FilesIntelCompilerFortran10.1.019Docsldaps_for.chm::/common/bldaps_mspowfiles.htm) this source:

PROGRAM test
OPEN (3,FILE='FDIR', FORM='FORMATTED', ACCESS='DIRECT',RECL=10)
WRITE (3, '(A10)', REC=1) 'RECORD ONE'
WRITE (3, '(I5)', REC=3) 30303
CLOSE (3)
END

With this compiler option:

ifort /fpscomp:ioformat

After execution of the program I get a file of 30 bytes. This is wrong because each record should contain 10 bytes+2 bytes CR-LF, thus 36 bytes in total. The CR-LFs are missing.

Any solution or workaround?

You want /fpscomp:general.

Thanks, Steve!

This file formatting issue was indeed a feature of general and not of ioformat.
