using 'mytype' in the code not always reliable #60

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
I had this problem when testing an application with nagfor compiler. Using 
'mytype' to compute memory addresses / displacements (as done is Setup.F90) is 
not reliable as the numerical value of 'mytype' can be compiler dependent (for 
NAG compiler double precision is not kind 8). More portable alternatives are 
MPI_SIZEOF routine or Fortran inquire function.

In principle you are right. We may work on this in future versions. However to 
date this has worked with all of the compilers we have tested the package with.
