The code below runs into problems when complied with both win32 and x64 when the optimise compiler switch is applied. The splash window (displayed during a long calculation) is never closed and the program does not terminate.

Code:
!options (optimise)                      !#### Code will fail in both WIN32 and X64 if this line is uncommented
module splash_windows_mod
use clrwin
implicit none
contains
  integer function temp_spinner(txt,control_temp_win)
  integer, intent(in) :: control_temp_win
  character(len=*), intent(in) :: txt
  integer, save :: iw
    iw = winio@('%ww[no_caption,no_maxminbox,topmost]&')
    iw = winio@('%fn[Tahoma]&')
    iw = winio@('%ts&',1.5d0)
    iw = winio@('%tc[white]&')
    iw = winio@('%bg[#BFCDDB]&')
!    iw = winio@('%cn%gi[spinner]&')
    iw = winio@('%nl%cn%ws&',txt)
    iw = winio@('%lw&', control_temp_win)       ! This automatically sets control_temp_win to -1
    iw = winio@(' ')
    temp_spinner = 2
  end function temp_spinner

  integer function do_something()
  integer i
  integer, save :: control_temp_win
  real*8 z1,z2
  character(len=120) :: txt = 'Initialising'
    i = temp_spinner(txt,control_temp_win)
    do i = 1, 32000, 1
      print*, i
      z1 = (dble(i))**2
      z2 = (dble(i))**2
    end do
    print*, 'Calc complete'
    control_temp_win = 1
    print*, 'Control_temp_win updated'
    call window_update@(control_temp_win)
    print*, 'call to window_update@ complete'
    do_something = 1
  end function do_something
end module splash_windows_mod

program main
use splash_windows_mod, only : do_something
implicit none
integer i
i = do_something()
end program main

Thank you for the feedback. I have logged this problem.

The fault is in options(optimise) which (at least in this context) does not have the same outcome as using /opt on the command line.

Until this is fixed, it will be necessary to use /opt on the FTN95 command line rather than options(optimise) in the code.

Although there appears to be a fault in FTN95 I suspect that the code also needs to be modified. When the following modification is applied, the problem is solved.

The variable control_temp_win should be declared within the scope of the module splash_windows_mod and not passed as an argument...

Code:
module splash_windows_mod
use clrwin
implicit none
integer control_temp_win


As it is, ClearWin+ is getting the wrong address for the control variable.

I don't understand it fully at the moment but part of the problem is that optimising with INTENT(IN) can lead the compiler to generate a local copy of the argument.

Thank you Paul, it never occurred to me to use /OPT on the command line (within Plato).

I missed the need for intent(inout) on control_temp_win, when I was starting at the code last night.

There are other issues with options(optimise).

For example I discovered that the code that generates the rotating phasors (based on %pl) I shared a few months back does not work properly with options(optimise), but it will be more challenging to create a simple demo (the code does not need to be optimised but I was curious!).

The coordinates of the some of the rotating vectors and axis are plotted incorrectly. Some of these are produced by updating the data passed to %pl and some are drawn based on %gr drawing primitives. So it will need a bit of careful investigation to replicate – when I have time. There is a mix of local and global variables in this part of the code. As per your last post a possibly is that ClearWin+ is getting the wrong address. Again this is “fixed” if /OPT is used on the command line.

This bug has now been fixed for the next release of FTN95. The two methods to switch on optimising will work consistently.

I wonder how long that bug has been around, and whether or not it was the reason I gave up on optimising well over a decade ago - just building ever faster computers turned out cheaper in the long run!
