#2571: runtime failure due to useing character*8 in DECLARE_CCTK_ARGUMENTS_CHECKED macro

Reporter: Roland Haas Status: new Milestone: Version: development version Type: bug Priority: major Component: Cactus

Comment (by Erik Schnetter):

Clever!

Character types are a bit magical in Fortran; they don’t really behave like strings in C. You could use `logical*8` instead; assignments between `integer`/`real` and `logical` are also disallowed in Fortran.
