-C-  ---  F08/0075   Pointer function reference as variable in assignment

-Y-  ---  F08/0076   Pointer function reference in READ

-Y-  ---  F08/0077   Function references as variables in DATA statements

-Y-  ---  F08/0078   Are the IEEE values +0 and -0 distinguished

-C-  ---  F08/0079   NAMELIST and type specification

-C-  ---  F08/0080   Array constructors with polymorphic values

-Y-  ---  F08/0081   Deallocation error handling

-C-  ---  F08/0082   Generic identifier and dtv arguments


Ballot comments:


F08/0040:  In the first edit, the edit instructions begin:

[97:13] In 5.3.10 INTENT attribute,

However, when the [page:line] is removed for the corrigendum, the
subsequent instructions will be ambiguous since the section contains
multiple instances of "entity".  The other edits have instructions
that are complete enough to omit the [page:line]. Seems better to do
the same for the first one. Something like

[97:13] In 5.3.10 INTENT attribute, constraint C541,

-------

F08/0075: The edit is faulty.  I assume that "label" should follow the
second "statement" in the Edit.  So the edit ends "... that is not
part of a statement label shall not be a digit."  If this assumption
is incorrect, then my vote is No, since I don't understand the current
edit text.

Minor: EDITS: -> EDIT:  (since there is only one).

-------

F08/0079: The test codes have numerous typos/syntax errors:

in Q2:

Class(t),Intent(In) :: dtv

should be

Class(t(6)),Intent(In) :: dtv

- original was missing a required KIND type parameter value

Allocate(x, Source=t(6)(1.5)      !  B

is missing a ")" after the (1.5).



in Q3:

Allocate(x, Source=t(6)(1.5)      !  B

is missing a ")" after the (1.5).



in Q4:

Class(t),Intent(In) :: dtv	

should be

Class(t(*)),Intent(In) :: dtv

- original was missing a required type parameter value

Allocate(x,Source=t(1,[15]))     ! B

should be

Allocate(x,Source=t(1)([15]))

- original was missing the type parameter because of wrong syntax.


-------

F08/0080: The code example for Q2 declares and allocates the variable
Z, but does nothing with it. Seems irrelevant to the Question asked.

-------

F08/0082: As Van pointed out, the discussion refers to READ(FORMATTED)
whereas the example program has WRITE(FORMATTED).  Changing the
discussion text to WRITE(FORMATTED) is the simpler fix.

Cheers,
Bill
