Passing NULL ( Blank) Arguments to a Procedure

[sanjaykale]

Hi ,

WE try to port some fortran applications from Tru64 ( HP Unix) and Solaris to Linux on intel.

There are lots of calls to procedures with some blank arguments.

e.g CALL DB_RD ( 'DBOTMP', 'POSTFLAG', POSTFLAG, ,)

I get the following error.

**Internal compiler error: segmentation violation signal raised** Please
report this error along with the circumstances in which it occurred in a Software Problem Report. Note: File and line given may not be explicit cause of this
error.
CALL DB_RD ( 'DBOTMP', 'POSTFLAG', POSTFLAG, ,)
.............^

Does anyone know if NULL ( blank) argumets are supported by Intel Fortran compiler.

thanks

Sanjay

Omitting arguments in this fashion, while non-standard, is supported.

An internal compiler error is ALWAYS a compiler bug. Please make sure you are using a current (8.0.046 or later) compiler version. If you are, please send an example of the source that causes the problem to Intel Premier Support.
