FIX: Errors F1002, F1901, R6000 Using Large Namelists (65047)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft FORTRAN Compiler for MS-DOS 5.0
- Microsoft FORTRAN Compiler for MS-DOS 5.1
- Microsoft FORTRAN compiler for OS/2 5.0
- Microsoft FORTRAN compiler for OS/2 5.1
This article was previously published under Q65047 SYMPTOMS
In the code sample below, errors are produced when a READ operation is
performed on a namelist that contains more than 99 variables.
With FORTRAN version 5.0,
If the namelist contains the following errors are produced
100 - 106 variables F10002: out of heap space
R6000 - stack overflow
107 - 117 variables machine hangs in DOS during compile
or protection violation under OS/2.
118 + variables F1901: program too large for memory
If the READ in the code below is changed to a WRITE, the errors are
the same, except when the namelist contains 104 - 106 variables under
OS/2. In this case, the screen group running the compiler will hang.
With FORTRAN version 5.1
If the namelist contains the following errors are produced
108 - 115 variables F1002: out of heap space
R6000 - stack overflow
116 - 118 variables R6000 - stack overflow
119 + variables F1901: program too large for memory
RESOLUTION
The workaround to this problem is to reduce the size of the namelist.
This can be accomplished by either splitting the namelist into
multiple smaller namelists or by grouping variables of similar type
together using arrays.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in FORTRAN versions 5.0 and
5.1. This problem was corrected in FORTRAN PowerStation.
MORE INFORMATION
The following code will produce the errors:
NAMELIST /test/

READ (*,test)
END
The following code uses an array instead of individual variables:
real a(120)
namelist/test/ a
read (*,test)
end
