Bug ID: 119768
Summary: FE: parsing PIC N and NAT is broken
Product: gcc
Version: 15.0
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: cobol
Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
Reporter: simonsobisch at gnu dot org
Target Milestone: ---
The sample program shows all of those issues:
PROGRAM-ID. "NAT".
DATA DIVISION.
WORKING-STORAGE SECTION.
01 nat pic N(10).
PROCEDURE DIVISION.
DISPLAY nat GOBACK.
nbug.cbl:4:23: error: invalid picture for Alphanumeric-edited
4 | 01 nat pic N(10).
| ^
nbug.cbl:6:16: error: syntax error, unexpected NAT
6 | DISPLAY nat goback.
| ^
I _think_ that's a parser only-issue, but for a compiler that targets COBOL2023
a quite severe one.
