On Thu, 9 Mar 2000, I posted the following problem: > I have the following problem: I want to set-up a large PARAMETER > array of derived type, and I need a separate line for each element. > The problem now is that Fortran 90/95 only allows 39 continuation > lines, but I need something like 120. Any ideas how to solve this? I got two replies, by Dan Nagle and by Thorsten Ohl, both boiling down essentially to the same procedure: splitting up the array to be constructed into several smaller (<= 40 elements) subarrays and then concatinate them into one large array. I like this idea, but doesn't it mean to store the data twice in memory, once as the subarrays and once as the final array? If this is true, and if there is no other solution avoiding this, I would consider this as a severe weakness of the present F90/95 standard. Is this going to change with F2K? Thanks for the replies, Roland +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Roland Schilling Home-Office: +49(89)32929-670 | | Max-Planck-Institut fuer Quantenoptik Phone: +49(89)32905-265 | | Hans-Kopfermann-Str. 1 Fax: +49(89)32905-200 | | D-85748 Garching E-mail: [log in to unmask] | | Germany http://www.geo600.uni-hannover.de | +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
