Error: Syntax error in array constructor at (1)
I can confirm that this appears to be a defect in the gfortran 4.9.0
implementation. That syntax is a valid and the only way I know to
construct an empty array on the fly. The relevant Fortran 2003 syntax is:
R468 array-constructor is (/ ac-spec /)
or lbracket ac-spec rbracket
R469 ac-spec is type-spec ::
or [type-spec ::] ac-value-list
I'm no Fortran expert but someone who is really ought to raise a defect
report on the compiler unless they know of another way of constructing
an empty array of user defined type.
For us I have changed the WSJT-X code to use a stack variable empty
array instead and that seems to work as expected.
Also I can confirm that WSJT-X built with gcc/g++/gfortran v4.9.0 as at
Today's gcc master SVN HEAD (r209443) appears to work but I only did a
very cursory sanity check.
Using an older jt9 file, I was able to start wsjt-x 4031 but it cannot
talk to my
756PRO as reported previously.
