Here I submit for review four small extensions to the GNU Fortran frontend for compatibility with legacy code. I figure it might be a nice change of pace from my larger patches. Never fear, for I have more large patches to come, which I will continue to submit one-at-a-time.
Each extension is enabled with its own compile flag, and each are enabled along with -fdec. They are fairly self-explanatory. 1. [-fdec-feed] Treat form feed characters as whitespace. 2. [-fdec-type-print] Treat TYPE as an alias for PRINT where applicable. 3. [-fdec-loc-rval] Allow %LOC() as an rvalue, equivalent to using the LOC() intrinsic. 4. [-fdec-logical-xor] Enable .XOR. as a logical operator. Feel free to comment on/question/approve each patch individually as desired. They are attached as sequential patch files for ease of review. Bootstraps & regtests on x86_64-redhat- linux. OK for trunk? --- Fritz Reese
