Expect that Intel staff will pick up the "internal compiler error" from here.

And also the following variant of the case in the original post, this one might also aid in debugging:

module m
   type, abstract :: a_t
      logical :: ell = .false.
   contains
      procedure :: fun
   end type
   type, extends(a_t) :: b_t
   end type
   type :: c_t
      class(a_t), pointer :: a
   contains
      procedure :: get
   end type
   type :: d_t
      type(b_t) :: b
   end type 
contains
   function fun(a) result(r)
      class(a_t), intent(in) :: a
      class(b_t), pointer :: r
      r => null()
   end function
   function get(c) result(r)
      class(c_t), intent(in) :: c
      class(b_t), pointer :: r
      r => c%a%fun()
   end function 
   subroutine sub(c, a)
      type(c_t), intent(in) :: c
      type(d_t) :: d
      d%b = c%get()
   end subroutine 
end module

Hi FF, thank you for taking your time simplifying this. Unfortunately your nice code is working for me, I have just compiled it without any error (see below).

Daniel, I note the FF did a 64 bit build and you did 32 bit build. There are probably other build options that may be relevant.

@andrew_4619, thank you very much for pointing this out, you are right. My results are:

  1. @FortranFan's code compiles in 32 bit but it throws an ICE in 64 bit.
  2. On the other hand my original code throws an ICE in both 32 and 64 bit.

I will add this thread and conclusions to the ticket, just in case it helps the engineers.

Wow, does it need to be that compilcated? So difficult to follow...you should read the Zen of Python!

I am not currently doing Fortran and even when I did, I did not use pointers much; but, I think I see a few things wrong and/or missing in your program.

I thought that when you used pointers, you also needed to declare the targets...and I don't see the word target anywhere in your program.

You functions with return values do not have what type is the result.

In your function get(c), your pointer r is a pointer to class(b_t) and not any of its attributes.

 

Oh, sorry, I did not see the attachment...I am replying to the explicit code above.

@Germán ,

 

Note again what you refer to the explicit code is a "variant" of the code by @Daniel_Dopico in the original post.

The purpose here is only to make available to the Intel staff simple reproducers toward the internal compiler error (ICE).  The premise being ICEs are compiler bugs that the Intel Fortran team will want to resolve.  The code in such simple reproducers may make little sense but that's beside the point, it's the reproduction of ICE that is of interest.

Dear @Germán. As @FortranFan said, the code itself is not important. It will be useful for Intel because it triggers an "internal compiler error", therefore it is a bug in the compiler that Intel wants to fix (so do we).

The code doesn't need to make sense and it is not important if it is nonconforming with the standard or even if it is wrong and it should not compile.

Just for clarifying, the code I sent is a tiny extract of a much larger code with thousands of lines wich makes a lot of sense.

Thank you for your report. I have escalated this to compiler engineering. It is still happening with the latest compiler.
