| # Flang Fortran Standards Support |
| |
| ```{contents} |

| ``` |
| |
| This document summarizes Fortran standards support in Flang. The information is only provided as a guideline. The |
| TODOs/Not Yet Implemented messages emitted by the compiler for unimplemented features should be treated as authoritative. |
| |
| The standards support information is provided as a table with three columns that are self explanatory. |
| The Status column uses the letters **Y**, **P**, **N** for the implementation status: |
| - **Y** : Yes. When the implementation is complete |
| - **P** : Partial. When the implementation is incomplete for a few cases |
| - **N** : No. When the implementation is absent |
| |
| There is no distinction made between support in the Parser/Semantics and the MLIR or Lowering stages. |
| |
| Note: The two major missing features in Flang at present are coarrays and parameterized derived types (PDTs) with length type parameters. |
| |
| |
| ## Fortran 2023 |
| See [document](F202X.md) for a brief discussion about the new features in Fortran 2023. The following table summarizes the |
| status of all important Fortran 2023 features. The table entries are based on the document [The new features in Fortran 2023](https://wg5-fortran.org/N2201-N2250/N2212.pdf). |
| |
| | Feature | Status | Comments | |
| |------------------------------------------------------------|--------|---------------------------------------------------------| |
| | Allow longer statement lines and overall statement length | Y | | |
| | Automatic allocation of lengths of character variables | N | | |
| | The specifiers typeof and classof | N | | |
| | Conditional expressions and arguments | N | | |
| | More use of boz constants | P | All usages other than enum are supported | |
| | Intrinsics for extracting tokens from a string | N | | |
| | Intrinsics for Trig functions that work in degrees | N | | |
| | Intrinsics for Trig functions that work in half revolutions| N | | |
| | Changes to system_clock | N | | |
| | Changes for conformance with the new IEEE standard | Y | | |
| | Additional named constants to specify kinds | Y | | |
| | Extensions for c_f_pointer intrinsic | N | | |
| | Procedures for converting between fortran and c strings | N | | |
| | The at edit descriptor | N | | |

| | Using an integer constant to specify rank | N | | |
| | Reduction specifier for do concurrent | P | Syntax is accepted | |
| | Enumerations | N | | |
| |
| ## Fortran 2018 |
| All features except those listed in the following table are supported. Almost all of the unsupported features are related to |
| the multi-image execution. The table entries are based on the document [The new features in Fortran 2018](https://wg5-fortran.org/N2151-N2200/ISO-IECJTC1-SC22-WG5_N2161_The_New_Features_of_Fortran_2018.pdf). |
