cDEC$ STRICT cDEC$ NOSTRICT The STRICT directive disables language features not found in the language standard specified on the command line (Fortran 95 or Fortran 90). The NOSTRICT directive (the default) enables these language features. The "c" in cDEC$ is one of the following: a C (or c), !, or *. If STRICT is specified and no language standard is specified on the command line, the default is to disable features not found in Fortran 90. The STRICT and NOSTRICT directives can appear only appear at the top of a program unit. A program unit is a main program, an external subroutine or function, a module or a block data program unit. The directives cannot appear between program units, or at the beginning of internal subprograms. They do not affect any modules invoked with the USE statement in the program unit that contains them. For compatibility, !MS$STRICT and !MS$NOSTRICT can be used in place of cDEC$ STRICT and cDEC$ NOSTRICT. Examples: Consider the following: ! NOSTRICT by default TYPE stuff INTEGER(4) k INTEGER(4) m CHARACTER(4) name END TYPE stuff TYPE (stuff) examp DOUBLE COMPLEX cd ! non-standard data type, no error cd =(3.0D0, 4.0D0) examp.k = 4 ! non-standard component designation, ! no error END SUBROUTINE STRICTDEMO( ) !DEC$ STRICT TYPE stuff INTEGER(4) k INTEGER(4) m CHARACTER(4) name END TYPE stuff TYPE (stuff) samp DOUBLE COMPLEX cd ! ERROR cd =(3.0D0, 4.0D0) samp.k = 4 ! ERROR END SUBROUTINE
