Roderick,

Because you're using Sun's /opt/SUNWspro/bin/f90 compiler, you should
rebuild the UDUNITS package from scratch (i.e., after executing a "make
distclean") without specifying CPPFLAGS=-Df2cFortran (the correct
symbol is "sunFortran" -- but that should be automatically determined).

When compiling fortran code that includes the file "udunits.inc", the
code must be preprocessed.  For f90(1), this is automatically done for
files with a ".F" suffix but not for ones with a ".f" suffix.  So,
rename the file.

Regards,
Steve Emmerson

Hello,
I installed udunits on this machine:
SunOS jana 5.8 Generic_108528-27 sun4u sparc SUNW,Sun-Blade-1000
How to I get my FORTRAN code to correctly call the udunits files?

I had no problems with the configure,make,test and install. =20
I used setenv CPPFLAGS=3D-Df2cFortran -UNDEBUG. for the fortran =
interface.
I have some legacy code that has an include statement include 'udunits', =
hence my reason to install the package.  When I compile the code I have =
errors like this:

#define UD_POINTER      integer*4
^
"udunits.inc", Line =3D 25, Column =3D 1: ERROR: The characters found in =
the label field are not valid.
                               ^
"udunits.inc", Line =3D 25, Column =3D 27: ERROR: Unknown statement.  =
Expected assignment statement but found "*" instead of "=3D" or "=3D>".

      UD_POINTER utmake
                       ^
"udunits.inc", Line =3D 33, Column =3D 24: ERROR: Unknown statement.  =
Expected assignment statement but found "EOS" instead of "=3D" or =
"=3D>".

How to I get my code to correctly call the udunits files?

My compile options are :
f77 saqmnetwrite.f -I/users/students/rpearson/netcdf-3.6.0-p1/include =
-L/users/students/rpearson/netcdf-3.6.0-p1/lib -lnetcdf =
-I/users/students/rpearson/uduni
ts-1.12.4/include -L/users/students/rpearson/udunits-1.12.4/lib =
-ludunits

My compiler is=20
