-----------------------------------

Several people in the last year have asked about Lahey Fortran compiler, except 
on linux not windows. We dont jave that compiler so I dont know the answer. 
Below is a message that might be of use. Also I would try asking this question 
to address@hidden

<http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/packages/netcdf/>, and it pointed to the
following: 

  http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/glimpse/netcdf/3903

which reports on successfully compiling netCDF for Lahey f95 using the
following environment variable settings:

>     setenv CXX /usr/bin/g++
>     setenv CC /usr/bin/gcc
>     setenv CFLAGS '-march=pentiumpro -O2'
>     setenv FC /usr/local/lf95/bin/lf95
>     setenv CPPFLAGS -DNAGf90Fortran
>

> make[2]: Entering directory `/home/hnv/netcdf/netcdf-3.4/src/fortran'
> + /usr/local/lf95/bin/lf95 -c -O ftest.F
> "ftest.F", line 7: error: #include: cannot find file "nfconfig.inc"

and then suggests more about how to get around the missing
"nfconfig.inc" problem.  This sounds like it got further in building
with Lahey on a Unix platform, so maybe that will help for your
attempt to build from source on Linux.  We still don't have access to
Lahey compilers here, which makes it difficult for us to try to debug
problems with Lahey compilers.
