BUG: FOR3093 Error Incorrectly Generated Without /4Ys

ID: Q149748

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Fortran PowerStation for Windows 95 and Windows NT, version 4.0

SYMPTOMS

Using a real number as an array subscript incorrectly causes the following compiler error:

error FOR3093: array bound is not integer scalar

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a bug in the Microsoft products listed at the beginning of this article. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.

MORE INFORMATION

The F3093 compiler error should only occur if you compile with the /4Ys option or use the !MS$STRICT metacommand; these two options enable strict conformance of the Fortran 90 standard.

Sample Code to Illustrate Problem


! Compile options needed: none

      integer array(1.0)   ! F3093 error generated here
