Bug ID: 64678 Summary: Expected association error on dependent associate statements Product: gcc Version: 5.0 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: minor Priority: P3 Component: fortran Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org Reporter: antony at cosmologist dot info In trunk module X Type T integer :: map end Type T contains subroutine DoBug Type(T) TT associate(A=>TT, B=>A%map) end associate end subroutine end module X gives: testbug.f90:10:17: associate(A=>TT, B=>A%map) 1 Error: Expected association at (1) testbug.f90:11:4: end associate 1 It's not entirely clear to me from the standard if this is allowed, but I don't see why not (useful when you are breaking up complicated array/class structures into associate names, where the second name refers to the first). It compiles in ifort. Obviously low priority as can be worked around easily enough
