<H2>Option: <font color=#FF0080>arguments</font></H2><P>
<A NAME="arguments"></A><DT><B><A HREF="arguments.html">-arguments</A>=</B><I>list</I> </DT>
<DD>Controls warnings about mismatches between actual
and dummy subprogram arguments, and also about mismatches between expected
and actual subprogram type. (An actual argument is an argument passed
to the subprogram by the caller; a dummy argument is an argument received
by the subprogram.) By default, all warnings are turned on. <blockquote></DD>
</DL>
<P>
The <I>list </I> consists
of keywords separated by commas or colons. Since all these warnings are
on by default, include a keyword prefixed by <B>no- </B> to turn off a particular
warning. There are three special keywords: <B>all </B> to turn on all the warnings
about arguments, <B>none </B> to turn them all off, and <B>help </B> to print the list
of all the keywords with a brief explanation of each. If <I>list </I> is omitted,
<B><A HREF="arguments.html">-arguments</A> </B> is equivalent to <B><A HREF="arguments.html">-arguments</A>=all </B>, and <B>-noarguments </B> is equivalent
to <B><A HREF="arguments.html">-arguments</A>=none </B>. The warning keywords with their meanings are as follows:
<DL>
<DT><B>arrayness</B>: </DT>
<DD>warn about inconsistent use of arguments that are arrays. These
warnings can be further controlled by the <B><A HREF="array.html">-array</A> </B> option. </DD>
<DT><B>type</B>: </DT>
<DD>warn about
dummy arguments of a different data type from the actual arguments. </DD>
<DT><B>function-type</B>:
</DT>
<DD>warn if the invocation assumes the function's return value is a different
type than it actually is. Also warns if a function is called as a subroutine,
or vice-versa. </DD>
<DT><B>number</B>: </DT>
<DD>warn about invoking a subprogram with a different
number of arguments than the subprogram expects. </DD>
</DL>
<P>
For compatibility with
previous versions of <B>ftnchek </B>, a numeric form of this setting is also
accepted: the <I>list </I> is replaced by a number from 0 to 3. A value of 0
turns all the warnings off, 1 turns on only <B>number </B>, 2 turns on all except
<B>number </B>, and 3 turns all the warnings on. <P>
This setting does not apply to
checking invocations of intrinsic functions or statement functions, which
can only be turned off by the <B>-nocheck </B> option. <P>
See also: <B><A HREF="array.html">-array</A> </B>, <B><A HREF="library.html">-library</A>
</B>, <B><A HREF="usage.html">-usage</A> </B>. </blockquote>
