Hi Paul, hi Mikael,
about renaming the identifier emitted: I would like to keep it short. Remember,
there is always a number attached to it, which makes it unique. Furthermore
does "alloc_source_tmp" sound unnecessarily long to me. It tastes like we do
not trust the unique identifier mechanism established in gfortran. But that is
just my personal taste.
about missing expr->rank == 0) in the extended patch: I just wanted to present
an idea here. The patch was not meant to be commited yet. I think it
furthermore is just half of the rent (like we say in Germany). I think we can
do better, when we also think about the preceeding two if-blocks (the ones
taking care about derived and class types). It should be possible to do
something similar there. Furthermore could one think about moving e3rhs for
array valued objects, too. But then we should not move to the last element, but
instead to the first element. Nevertheless in the array valued case one might
end up still having to deallocate the components or e3rhs, when the object
allocated is zero sized. I wonder whether the bother really pays.
What do you think about it?
Paul: I would recommend you commit with symbol rename, but without the move
optimization. We can do that later.
Mikael: I usually do favor else if, too. Because of quick and dirty nature of
the patch, I omitted to stick to the standard code convention.
Regards,
Andre
