Bug ID: 113975 Summary: function returning array is not fully evaluated before assignement Product: gcc Version: 13.2.0 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: fortran Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org Reporter: comptes at ugo235 dot fr Target Milestone: --- The following code is poorly designed, yet I think it is standard-conforming: ====================================== module foo implicit none integer, parameter :: n=3 integer :: a(n,n) contains pure function bar() integer :: bar(n,n) bar = transpose(a) end function bar end module foo program main use foo implicit none integer :: i a = reshape([ 11, 12, 13 & , 21, 22, 23 & , 31, 32, 33 ], shape=[n,n], order=[2,1] ) a = bar() do i = 1, n print*, a(i,:) end do end program main ====================================== In `a = bar()`, `bar()` should be fully evaluated before the result is assigned to `a`, and it seems this is not the case. Consequently, the output of the program compiled with gfortran 13.2 (without any option) is not the transpose of the matrix that is entered in the code: ====================================== Program returned: 0 Program stdout 11 12 13 12 22 23 13 23 33 ======================================
