The attached code fails to compile with current nvfortran. The error message received is
NVFORTRAN-F-0155-Type specified in CLASS IS must be an extension of type t$pt (len_par_tbp_02_pos.f90: 17)
If the SELECT TYPE construct is commented out, the following error message is received:
NVFORTRAN-F-0155-No default initialization in structure constructor- member m (len_par_tbp_02_pos.f90: 27)
len_par_tbp_02_pos.tar.gz (496 Bytes)
Sorry for the late reply. I talked with engineering about this.
% nvfortran -c ~/tmp/len_par_tbp_02_pos.f90

We are unlikely to support PDTs with the select type construct, at least with the current nvfortran. We’ll be moving to a new flang based front end which will replace nvfortran. In talking with our flang team, they will likely implement it at some point but not in an early release given the complexity of implementing this support.

Understood. Thanks for the feedback!
