MAXVAL in constant expressions?

[Harald]

Hello,

are there plans to support MAXVAL & friends in F2008 constant expressions?

  integer, parameter :: m = maxval ( [ 1, 2 ] )
end

leads to

Plans? Yes. I can't yet predict when this will be enabled, but doing all the "constant expression" stuff is on our "sooner rather than later" list.

At least this one is fixed in

Intel(R) Fortran Compiler XE for applications running on IA-32, Version 15.0.0.090 Build 20140723

Fixed as a consequence of transformational intrinsics in constant expressions being an f2003 feature and version 15 implementing all of f2003.
