The Fortran 2003 standard Section C.1.6 allows a generic procedure to have the
same name as a type , but gfotran gives "Error: DERIVED attribute of 'foo'
conflicts with PROCEDURE attribute at (1)" on the following code:
module foo_module
type foo
integer :: bar
end type
interface foo
procedure constructor
end interface
contains
type(foo) function constructor()
constructor%bar = 1
end function
end module
I use this style throughout a textbook I'm writing because it seems like a
natural way to extend the intrinsic structure constructor syntax. A more
extensive example of this technique is also in Figure 17.1 of Metcalf, Reid &
Cohen.
