420.5 | Status? | TLE::LUCIA | http://asaab.zko.dec.com/~lucia/biography.html | Mon May 05 1997 16:59 | 7 |
| Status? Are there customers out there using compilers on programs with
arrays of rank > 7?
Ladebug has not made any plans to support more than 7.

| Yes, this was a customer request, and the code is under an
undocumented switch, awaiting Ladebug support. When you support
more dimensions, we will remove the switch. The main reason we
implemented this was because other vendors had already done so,
and it was a requested item. But we cannot make it fully
available until the debuggers understand it (AVMS does already).
So, yes, we still want this. In a similar vein, we still
want support for note 370 (parameter constants). Until you tell
us we cannot have these things, we assume they are still on your
(long) list. Please do NOT throw them away just because they
are old.
Cheers!

420.7 | oh yeah, a test program would be cool too... | QUARRY::petert | rigidly defined areas of doubt and uncertainty | Tue May 06 1997 12:46 | 7 |
| What's the undocumented switch? I see that I did something with dbx in
the past, but since I never got any official word, I never made that
fix official. If it require no other work than what I tried previously,
than it would be an easy fix to make it into both ptmin and steel.

420.8 | Not gone or forgotten! | TLE::LUCIA | http://asaab.zko.dec.com/~lucia/biography.html | Tue May 06 1997 12:49 | 13 |
| f77 -switch fe_dimgt7
I was about to ask the same question. While you were writing your
reply, however, I went and re-read the base note and found the answer.
Now at least I know I can produce an a.out file with >7 dimensions.
It's old, but not forgotten! I still have a very long list of Fortran
TO-DOs, which will be reviewed again soon to prioritize our next wave
of Fortran support.

| Thank you. In general, if the feature cannot be fully
supported because some other piece of software needs to get up
to speed, we try to put it under a switch for the customer so
that they can limp along in the meantime without generating a
pile of CLDs. From time to time we review what's working, and
try to remove the switch if we feel the feature is generally
valuable.
Cheers!
