For example, for this case:

[real :: 2] * [real :: +(.true.)]

First there is a "root" invocation of reduce binary with arguments [real
:: 2] and [real :: +(.true.)]
The root invocation of reduce_binary will call reduce_binary_aa. This is
normal.

Then reduce_binary_aa calls reduce_binary again with arguments 2 and
+(.true.).  And reduce_binary calls again reduce_binary_aa with those
arguments.  This is weird, reduce_binary_aa is supposed to have arrays
for both arguments.

Am I seeing something different from you?  My gdb says
that one argument of reduce_binary is EXPR_CONSTANT,
the other EXPR_OP and BT_UNKNOWN.  Both rank 0.

No, I get the same, and the program goes to reduce_binary_aa with those
arguments; this is the problem.

The same goes for the array vs constant case, reduce_binary_ca (or
reduce_binary_ac) is invoked with two scalars, while if you look at
reduce_binary, you would expect that we only get to reduce_binary_ca
with a scalar constant and an array as arguments.


I think the checks in the three reduce_binary_* functions should be
moved into their respective loops, so that we detect the invalid type
just before these weird recursive calls instead of just after entering
into them.

I think I tried that before, and it didn't work.
There was always one weird case that lead to a bad or
invalid constructor for one of the arrays you want to
look at in the respective loop,  and this is why the
testcase tries to cover everything that I hit then and
there... (hopefully).  So I ended up with the check
before the loop.

I see, I'll have a look.

What do we actually gain with your suggested change?
Moving the check into the loop does not really make
the code more readable to me.  And the recursion is
needed anyway.

I think we gain clarity, consistency.

I try to rephrase again.
 From a high level point of view, to evaluate a binary operator you need
a specific (one for each operator) function to evaluate the scalar vs
scalar case, and three generic (they are common to all the operators)
functions to handle respectively:
  - the scalar vs array case,
  - the array vs scalar case,
  - the array vs array case,
by calling in a loop the scalar specific function.
Here we are only dealing with constants, arrays of constants, arrays of
arrays, etc, all valid cases.

Your patch introduces support for invalid cases, that is invalid values
that can't be reduced to a constant.  This is fine, and it works.
What is weird is that the scalar vs invalid scalar case is caught in the
array vs array function.

OK, that is because reduce_binary dispatches the reduce_binary_*.
We could move the check from reduce_binary_aa to the beginning of
reduce_binary, as with the following change on top of the patch:

However, we cannot remove the checks from reduce_binary_ac
or reduce_binary_ca, as the lengthy testcase proves...

Do you like the above better?

Cheers,
Harald
