Hello,
I'm developing in Visual Studio and I'm wondering why when I have a derived type that has a vector of allocatable array as an element visual studio debugger describes the object as an undefined pointer/allocatable even after allocation despite the progrma happy working with the values in the array. However, Visual Sutdio debuger shows the correct values for a vector of a structures containing allocatable arrays. In the example below Visual Studio describes arrayB%a(1)%rec as undefined but correctly displays the values of array(1)%a%rec while printing the correct values of both with the write statement, Does this point to some deeper problem with the structure containing vectors of allocatable arrays? Or is this just some quirk of Visual Studio debugger? And if the later is there some way to get Visual Studio to correctly display the data as the vector of allocatable arrays structure is more convient to my problem.
Thanks
program scratch
implicit none
type recType
real, allocatable :: rec( :, :, :, :,:,:,:)
end type recType
type str
type(recType) :: a
end type
type strB
type(recType) :: a(2)
end type
type(str) :: array(2)
type(strB) :: arrayB
allocate(array(1)%a%rec(2,2,2,2,2,2,2))
allocate(arrayB%a(1)%rec(2,2,2,2,2,2,2))
array(1)%a%rec(1,1,1,1,1,1,1) = 0
arrayB%a(1)%rec(1,1,1,1,1,1,1) = 0
write (*,*) "hello world", array(1)%a%rec(1,1,1,1,1,1,1), arrayB%a(1)%rec(1,1,1,1,1,1,1)
end program scratch
