size of undefined allocatable array different than zero !

[Renaud_Egal]

Hello !

I've been working on migrating old Compaq projects to Intel Visual Fortran. I'm hitting some problems and I can't find any solution on this forum. Please help me.

First, I have to mention that these are large complex and most of all confidential projects, so I won't provide them entirely for these reasons.

The first problem I encountered is the one showed in the attached project : when I try to get the size of a deallocated array, I get the size of the array before deallocating... That's something that wasn't happening with CVF.

If you have any advice on that, I'm all ears !

Cheers

Renaud Egal

Your program is incorrect - the definition of the SIZE intrinsic says, for the array argument, "It shall not be an unallocated allocatable variable or a pointer that is not associated." Your assumption that the SIZE of an unallocated array is zero is mistaken, and the result of SIZE in this case is unpredictable.

okay, good to know ;)

now i have to change the ocurrences in source code

thanks Steve !
