Dear forum members,
I would like to make the following announcements for the next MPI Forum Meeting (May 2-5, 2023):
- informal reading and discussion #705 Errata: Fortran has only compile-time constants Rolf Issue https://github.com/mpi-forum/mpi-issues/issues/705 PR https://github.com/mpi-forum/mpi-standard/pull/819 PDF https://github.com/mpi-forum/mpi-standard/files/11358444/mpi41-report_Issue7...
This errata should be completely discussed in next (May 2-5, 2023) meeting. It is then planned to have an final errata reading plus errata vote at next meeting (July 10-13, 2023).
It is a bug since MPI-2.2 because a problem in C was directly mapped to Fortran. This mapping was wrong. In Fortran, there is no distinction between link-time and compile-time constants.
Best regards Rolf Rabenseifner
