[netCDF #FOV-989930]: Fortran compiling error

Hi John,

Sorry to have taken so long to respond to your question ...
> Package Version: netCDF-4.1.1
> Operating System: Snow Leopard
> Hardware: 2.53 Intel Core 2 Duo
> Description of problem: Here's the build script.

> export CFLAGS="-m64"
> export CPPFLAGS="-m64 -Df2cFortran"
> #export CPPFLAGS="-Df2cFortran"
> export CXXFLAGS="-m64"

You shouldn't need most of those settings with netCDF-4.1.1 on Mac OS X.  For 
me, the build
succeeded when I just put /usr/local/bin in the front of my PATH environment 
variable so the
matching gcc and gfortran would be found by the configure script from that 
directory, then I
just invoked 

  ./configure --prefix=<whatever>
  make check
  make install

The configure script figures out what flags are needed for everything and gets 
it right.  In particular,
you don't need -Df2cFortran in CPPFLAGS, and the "-m64" is the default with gcc 
and gfortran if you
have a platform that supports the 64-bit model.  I built with 4.1.1 on MacOS X 
10.6.3 using the gcc and 
gfortran versions 4.4.1 from the gcc-leopard-intel-bin.tar.gz (Intel Mac) link 
on http://hpc.sourceforge.net/,
but you should probably be using the 4.5 versions for your Intel Core 2 Duo, 
from the 
gcc-snwleo-intel-bin.tar.gz (Snow Leopard) link on the same web site.

This looks like you're trying to install 64-bit objects into a library archive 
already containing 32-bit objects, or
vice-versa.  Maybe from trying make multiple times without running "make clean" 
in between invocations.  If
you start from a new 4.1.1 source distribution with the process described 
above, you won't have this problem.

I hope this helps ...
