New Features:

• Fortran 2003 ASSOCIATE construct.
• Fortran 2003 Parameterised derived types.
• Fortran 2003 PROCTECTED attribute for module variables.
• Fortran 2003 NINT, AINT, ANINT and TRANSPOSE allowed in initialisation.
• Fortran 2008 BLOCK construct.
• Fortran 2008 BACK argument for MINLOC, MAXLOC and FINDLOC.
• Command line option /ALL_ERRORS added.
• ISHFT and ISHFTC now coded inline for 64 bits.
• ClearWin+: Tooltips via %th[ms_style] have been extended to allow use with read-only controls.
• ClearWin+: New options have been added for native tooltips (%th without ms_style)
• ClearWin+: New new format code %cd has be added that generates the standard Microsoft Open/Save As file dialog.
• ClearWin+: An alternative method has been added for multiple %pl or %bn options.

Outline summary of some of the bugs that have been fixed:

• MINLOC missing error report when not /ISO.
• Integer overflow at runtime for ALLOCATE and /64 /UNDEF.
• #INCLUDE not working at column one for fixed Fortran and the command line option /CFPP.
• False warning 'Character miss-match in argument'.
• ROTATE_FONT@ not working correctly for GDI+.
• SET_DEFAULT_WINDOW@ not working for 64 bits.
• ALLOCATE with keyword SOURCE failed for arrays declared in a module.
• Various failures for 'allocate on assignment'.
• NINT, AINT and ANINT not implemented for initialisation expression.
• 'SLATEC' failures for the routines D1MACH and XERMSG.
• Failure for expression containing calls to a function returning a complex value (64 bits only).
• TRANSPOSE not working correctly for 64 bits.
• Failure for nested IF constructs for /64 and /OPT.
• 'Allocate on assignment' was being attempted for an ALLOCATABLE right hand side.
• COMPILER_VERSION and COMPILER_OPTIONS were not hidden for ISO_FORTRAN_ENV and USE ONLY.
• ALLOCATE was not failing for PROTECTED variables.
• False runtime error report about non-conformant arrays with /64 and /CHECK.
• 'Allocate on assignment' was not working for the TRANSFER intrinsic.
