cannot view value of variable declared in COMMON in the IDE watch window

[dalemills]

I cannot view the value of variables declared in a named common ( COMMON/xname/ val1). Is this a limitation of the IDE or Fortran. Is there a work around?

[Lahey Support]

Using LF v7.1 and WinFDB the value of val1 in the following program is displayed in the Watch window.

program test
integer :: val1
COMMON/xname/ val1
read (*,'(i)') val1
print*, val1
end program

Limits on what can be viewed (debugged) are discussed in the documentation section titled LF Fortran 95, Debugging with WinFDB, Restrictions
