ISO/IEC JTC1/SC22/WG5 N2043 WG5 straw ballot 8 on Fortran 2008 interpretations John Reid, 21 December 2014 This is the eighth WG5 vote on a set of draft interpretations for Fortran 2008. They have all been approved in a J3 letter ballot. The rules we operate on say: --- --- 4. The chair of J3/interp gathers all interp answers that are marked "passed by J3 letter ballot" and forwards them to the WG5 convenor. The WG5 convenor holds a ballot of individual members; a no vote must be accompanied by an explanation of the changes necessary to change the member's vote to yes. The answers that pass this ballot become "WG5 approved". J3/interp reserves the right to recall an interp answer for more study even if the answer passes. 5. "WG5 approved" answers are processed into a corrigendum document by taking the edits from the interp answers and putting them in the format required by ISO. A WG5 vote is made on forwarding the corrigendum to SC22. The following Fortran 2008 interpretations are being balloted: Yes No Number Title --- --- F08/0099 VOLATILE in specification expressions --- --- F08/0100 IMPORT statement and prior explicit declaration --- --- F08/0101 NAMELIST and multiple occurrences of a variable --- --- F08/0102 MERGE and polymorphism --- --- F08/0103 Pointers to internal procedures with different host instances --- --- F08/0104 IEEE Inquiry Functions --- --- F08/0106 MOVE_ALLOC for a remote array --- --- F08/0108 ultimate components and coarrays --- --- F08/0112 STAT= and ERRMSG= in ALLOCATE and DEALLOCATE --- --- F08/0113 Specifiers in image control statements The text of these interpretations is in N2042. Each interpretation starts there with a row of "-"s. Please mark the above -Y- in the Yes column for "yes", -C- in the Yes column for "yes with comment", or -N- in the No column for a "no" answer {be sure to include your reasons with "no"} and send to sc22wg5@open-std.org by 0900 UK time on Monday, 26 January 2015, in order to be counted. Thanks, John.
