Is there anything special about "SIGNAL"? When running the snippet below in debug mode, SIGNAL is always displayed as a prodcedure in the watch window. However, use of modulename :: SIGNAL shows it correctly as the character variable.
(In a mixed-langauge program, I find that when hovering cursor over it if used in a subroutine/program also shows is at as a procedure. I don't see this is Fortran only program.)
This does not seem to happen for other intrinsic function SIN. As I understand SIGNAL is a portability function. I would try to avoid use of such function names but this is coming from a legacy library.
I am using IVF 11.1.035 with VS2005 on Win64 XP.
Sincerely
Abhi
