Is OpenMP not supporting Fortran 2003 (PASS, Finalization, etc.)

Hi all,

My question is related to integration of OpenMP in Fortran with some features in standard 2003/2008

In the document of latest 4.0 release it is stated that some features are not supported. The problem is : such features are in my opinion very important for new Object-Oriented paradigm as introduced in new standards.

I made some simple code containing type extension and pass atribute. The OpenMP work and a get  speedup of 12x. ( on 12 cores !!!) 

But in other complex cases ( with multiple classes and procedures pointers) I got unexpected access violation in runtime.

Before I investigate more, is any one had similar errors with OepnMP in context of OOP paradigm of Fortran 2003/2008.

Thanks

P.S. Here is the part of text related to my post, see for details the link: http://www.openmp.org/mp-documents/OpenMP4.0.0.pdf

!==========================================================================================

ISO/IEC 1539-1:2004, Information Technology - Programming Languages - Fortran.

This OpenMP API specification refers to ISO/IEC 1539-1:2004 as Fortran 2003. The following features are not supported: 

• IEEE Arithmetic issues covered in Fortran 2003 Section 14

• Allocatable enhancement • Parameterized derived types

• Finalization

• Procedures bound by name to a type

• The PASS attribute 

• Procedures bound to a type as operators

• Type extension

• Overriding a type-bound procedure

• Polymorphic entities

• SELECT TYPE construct

• Deferred bindings and abstract types

• Controlling IEEE underflow

• Another IEEE class value

Where this OpenMP API specification refers to C, C++ or Fortran, reference is made to the base language supported by the implementation
