1167.0. "would be nice if warning message gave more info" by HPCGRP::DEGREGORY (Karen 223-5801) Fri Feb 07 1997 15:39

Using V4.1-6 on Unix 4.0b, Iget the following warning message on the attached
code.  The warning is kind of terse and it would be helpful if it gave
more information:

oursmp> f77 -c x.f

fort: Warning: No value
      
******************  cut here ******************

      subroutine foo
      common /bar/ m
      pointer (stimpy  , ren(0:m))
      end

	This looks like a bug which existed only between edits 4-81 and 4-103 (when it got fixed). There was a problem with pointer arrays and f90 automatic arrays with variable bounds. Your example falls into the former category. You will need to use a compiler earlier than 4-81 or later than 4-103 to fix the bug. Cheers! Dave Eklund
