Increasing fixed form line length doesn't seem to be working

[ferrad]

I have the following bit of code:

!DEC$ FIXEDFORMLINESIZE: 132
!DEC$ REAL:8

program test

real*8 y,x,a,b
integer klo

klo = 20
a = 100.0 * (xs(klo+1) - x)
b = 100.0 * (x - xs(klo))
acosh3 = a * ya(klo) + b * ya(klo+1) + (a * (a*a - 1.0) * yd(klo) + b * (b*b - 1.0) * y2a(klo+1)) * 1.0e-4 / 6.0

end

which doesn't compile (the acosh3 = line is on one line). I get:

D: est est.for(13): Error: Syntax error, found END-OF-STATEMENT when expecting one of: ( ...

It works fine if the line is truncated before column 72 and continued. But this should work as I have set max line length to 132.

Works ok for me in ifort 9.0. What compiler are you using?

[ferrad]

I did a bit more experimenting. I was compling from the VS7 environment - so I tried creating a new project and it worked fine,then I went back into my old project, and it fails. So I checked the command line arguments and found that the /fpp switch is set and that causes the failure, ie.

ifort /fpp /c test.for

fails with the test example (after declaring the4 arrays).

Why?

I guess that fpp isn't recognizing the directive. I'll report that to the developers.
