FIX: EXIT Statement Not Flagged as Extension to Standard

ID: Q67232

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft FORTRAN for MS-DOS, version 5.0
Microsoft FORTRAN for OS/2, version 5.0

SYMPTOMS

When an application contains the $STRICT metacommand or the compiler command line includes the /4Yi, /4Ys, or /4Yv compiler option switches and the source code includes the EXIT statement, no warning message appears.

The compiler is designed to produce the following message for the EXIT statement:

F2732 EXIT: nonstandard statement

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in FORTRAN version 5.0 for MS-DOS and OS/2. This problem has been corrected in FORTRAN version 5.1 for MS-DOS and OS/2.

MORE INFORMATION

The EXIT statement is documented as an extension to the ANSI FORTRAN 77 standard. It appears in blue type in the Microsoft FORTRAN "Reference" manual for versions 5.0 and 5.1. Because the EXIT statement is not listed with the IBM Systems Application Architecture (SAA) or DEC VAX extensions on pages 330-332 of the "Reference" manual, the compiler should generate the F2732 warning message.
