Compiling ROMS on SUNOS

[elhunter]

Hello,

This is my first attempt at compiling ROMS and I am having a difficulty.Hopefully I am not doing anything all that silly.

Here are some relevant versions.
squall{58}% uname -a
SunOS squall 5.8 Generic_108528-22 sun4u sparc SUNW,UltraAX-i2
squall{61}% make -v

f95: Sun Fortran 95 8.2 2005/10/13


It seems to do OK unitl I get to:

Netcdf libraries are installed in /usr/local/lib amd /usr/local/inlcude/. I also removed the -U flag as Kate suggested in a post earlier today, with the same result.


It seems to be a compiler problem. Perhaps I should give g95 a try.

Thanks,

Hello,

Well as it turns out the problem was with my netcdf.inc file. It was using "c" as a comment instead of "!". I upgraded my netcdf libraries and it seems to be compiling fine.

Thanks,
Eli
