Bug #: 53298 Summary: ICE in gfc_conv_scalarized_array_ref for ARRAY + substring Classification: Unclassified Product: gcc Version: 4.8.0 Status: UNCONFIRMED Keywords: ice-on-valid-code Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: fortran AssignedTo: unassig...@gcc.gnu.org ReportedBy: bur...@gcc.gnu.org Blocks: 45424 The following program segfaults. The problem is the expression array(:)(1:) ^^^--<-- substring This combination is seemingly not handled by gfc_conv_expr_descriptor. At the end, one gets a segfault for: gfc_conv_scalarized_array_ref (se=0x7fffffffcfe0, ar=0x1700538) at fortran/trans-array.c:3016 3016 expr = ss->info->expr; which is called via gfc_conv_array_ref <<< gfc_conv_variable <<< gfc_conv_string_length <<< get_array_charlen <<< gfc_conv_expr_descriptor. character(len=5) :: str(3) call f(str(:)) contains subroutine f(x) character(len=*) :: x(:) logical :: llll print *, size(x(:)(1:)) end subroutine f end The program compiles flawlessly with NAG f95 and prints "3". It fails with GCC 4.1.2, 4.3.4, 4.8.0 and probably all other versions.
