fable.read.Error: Missing a closing ")":

[Mintinson]

I'm trying to convert a piece of f77 code to C++. The code was able to be converted successfully with the f2c program, but when I use fable its reporting an error!

fable.read.Error: Missing a closing ")":
  at .\my_optim.f(288):
  |     *                    mu(la), r(m+n+n+2), s(n+1), u(n+1), v(n+1), w(*),|

Here's the part of the code that reported the error:

         DOUBLE PRECISION a(la,n+1), c(la), g(n+1), l((n+1)*(n+2)/2),
     *                    mu(la), r(m+n+n+2), s(n+1), u(n+1), v(n+1), w(*),
     *                    x(n), xl(n), xu(n), x0(n),
     *                    ddot_sl, dnrm2_, linmin,
     *                    acc, alfmin, alpha, f, f0, gs, h1, h2, h3, h4,
     *                    hun, one, t, t0, ten, tol, two, ZERO

Is there any solution or workaround to this problem?

Hi @Mintinson I'm having trouble reproducing this. I tried a minimal version of what you wrote that should be a complete example:

      program prog
         DOUBLE PRECISION a(la,n+1), c(la), g(n+1), l((n+1)*(n+2)/2),
     *                    mu(la), r(m+n+n+2), s(n+1), u(n+1), v(n+1),
     *                    w(*),
     *                    x(n), xl(n), xu(n), x0(n),
     *                    ddot_sl, dnrm2_, linmin,
     *                    acc, alfmin, alpha, f, f0, gs, h1, h2, h3, h4,
     *                    hun, one, t, t0, ten, tol, two, ZERO
      end

fable.cout runs fine on this, however, it doesn't generate these variables as they are not used. So do you have a more complete minimal example I could try?
