I am trying to debug the following small program in Visual Studio 2008 with Intel Visual Fortran Compiler Integration for Microsoft Visual Studio* 2008, 11.1.3469.2008:
program allocstringtest
character(:), allocatable :: chararray
integer, allocatable :: intarray(:)
chararray = 'this is some text'
intarray = [ 3, 4, 5 ]
write(*,*) chararray
write(*,*) intarray
end program allocstringtest
The program compiles and runs fine:
c:\\allocstringtest>ifort /debug:all /assume:realloc_lhs allocstring.f90

-out:allocstring.exe
-debug
-pdb:allocstring.pdb
-subsystem:console
allocstring.obj
c:\\allocstringtest>allocstring.exe
this is some text
3 4 5
However, when I try to display the value of chararray in the debugger, I get the following error message as the value of the variable:
"Substring arguments out of bounds"
I get the same message regardless of if the variable has been assigned or not. Contrary to chararray, the value of intarray displays correctly in the debugger after it has been assigned its value.
