--- Comment #3 from Tobias Burnus <burnus at gcc dot gnu.org> 2012-07-23 13:44:47 UTC --- (In reply to comment #1) > Misleading error message: > Error: Extension: BOZ literal at (1) outside a DATA statement and outside > INT/REAL/DBLE/CMPLX > As comment 0 shows, there are now many more intrinsics where BOZ literals are > allowed. The message text should be updated. http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gfortran/BOZ-literal-constants.html has a similar issue: It also only lists the 4 Fortran 2003 intrinsics; one should mention that some additional Fortran 2008 intrinsics also accept BOZ.
