RuntimeError: 'str object' has no attribute 'meta'

Hi,

I am getting an error message while trying to create the HTML documentation:

RuntimeError: .... 'str object' has no attribute 'meta'

I am wondering if you could let me know if I am doing something wrong. Here is a link to a simple reproducer:

The Fortran source code is in the folder geom and the folder Ford contains the Ford project file.

Thank you for your asistance.

Cheers,

Jules

Hi @JulesKouatchou, I think this is most likely due to the line

      procedure, deferred :: get_esmf_geom

in MaplGeom.F90. deferred procedures need an interface, something like:

      procedure(esmf_geom_interface), deferred :: get_esmf_geom

where esmf_geom_interface is some abstract interface.

Ideally ford would catch this sooner with a more helpful error message. I will try and fix that at some point!
