>From: "Alliss, Randall J." <address@hidden> >Organization: TASC >Keywords: 199907221406.IAA22360 McIDAS DEC Alpha Randy, >We compiled using VENDOR compilers so I am alittle confused now. The default in SSEC's distribution of 7.60 is to use gcc/f2c, not the vendor compilers. Your mccomp line: >mccomp -0 remap2.k remap2.o -L/usr/users/mcidas/lib -lmcidas >/usr/users/mcidas/mcidas7.6/src/main.o cloudp.o appears like it will use gcc/f2c. Looking at the code in mccomp, I see: # check for -vendor flag -vendor) vendor=true ;; This tells me that if -vendor is not specified, you will use gcc/f2c. Try rerunning your mccomp line as: mccomp -O remap2.k remap2.o -L/usr/users/mcidas/lib -lmcidas /usr/users/mcidas/mcidas7.6/src/main.o cloudp.o -vendor Also, in your listing, you have 'mccomp -0' (mccomp dash zero) instead of mccomp -O (mccomp dash oh). Is this an email typo or an invocation typo? Tom >From address@hidden Thu Jul 22 13:19:03 1999 >Cc: <address@hidden> Tom, the -vendor worked. However i did have to modify the mccomp file to change cc=cc and fc=f77. thanks for the help. Dave, remap runs 32x faster on my ALPHA then the AIX box. Randy
