The .mod file is recognised at > compile time. However at compilation, the following message appears: > ldr-183 f90: CAUTION > Object file '/usr/local/netcdf/include/netcdf.mod' either is empty > or contains no object modules. > > The program runs OK but UNICOS is a little confused with a module file not > containing objects, as it usually writes an object.o file for all modules > in f90, without using a .mod file. It finds the objects in the library > files despite the CAUTION message. > > This CAUTION message also confused me as I took it that the program had > not properly used the netcdf libraries. In short, the library works, even > with this message. Sounds like a problem with the Fortran development environment. You might show it to some systems people. > Apologies for troubling you; I don't know if this feedback is of any > help to you or not. The feedback got me off my butt to fix a problem. That's got to be a good thing. :-) Regards, Steve Emmerson <http://www.unidata.ucar.edu>
