The programme program longint real x if (.true.) x = 12345678901 end program longint
contains an integer constant that does not fit into 32 bits. The compiler gives the following error message: $ ~/gcc/bin/gfortran -Wall -c longint.f90 In file longint.f90:3 if (.true.) x = 12345678901 1 Error: Unclassifiable statement in IF-clause at (1) This is with the compiler version $ ~/gcc/bin/gfortran --version GNU Fortran 95 (GCC) 4.2.0 20060527 (experimental) The error message should instead be "Illegal integer constant", or "integer constant too large for default integer kind integer*32", or something similar. -- Summary: Strange error message for illegal integer constant Product: gcc Version: 4.2.0 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: fortran AssignedTo: unassigned at gcc dot gnu dot org ReportedBy: schnetter at aei dot mpg dot de GCC build triplet: i386-apple-darwin8.6.1 GCC host triplet: i386-apple-darwin8.6.1 GCC target triplet: i386-apple-darwin8.6.1 http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=27981
