Hi All

Sorted. Roy M, Dennis H and Sean M all helped, but it was Ted Mansell who nailed it - I was too confident in the gfortran (I used the MacResearch.org installer).

For reference, this is *the* Snow Leopard gfortran, and it works with the 64-bit kernel (so far!):

Cheers! Now I have to get HDF-4 working :(

Hi

Has anyone successfully built NetCDF 4 as 64-bit, on a Mac Pro with Snow Leopard and the 64-bit kernel enabled?

I'm hitting problems with the F77 interface, i think. I've set all compiler flags I can find to '-m64' (just using GNU/free compilers, no Absoft etc).

Configure line:

ianharris% arch -arch x86_64 ./configure --with-hdf5=/usr/local -- with-zlib=/usr/local --with-szlib=/usr/local --prefix=/usr/local -- disable-f90 --enable-netcdf-4 --enable-64bit

(I have tried it with and without the 'arch' prefix, it doesn't seem to help)

If I specify G77 as the compiler, it doesn't seem to like the -m64 option:

:

checking for C-equivalent to Fortran routine "SUB"... configure: error: Could not compile conftest.f

:

If, on the other hand, I specify gfortran, it compiles the tests but then fails thusly:

:

checking if Fortran "byte" is C "signed char"... configure: error: Could not link conftestf.o and conftest.o

:

I modded configure so it didn't delete those two files.. this is the real problem I think:

:
ianharris% file conftestf.o conftest.o
conftestf.o: Mach-O 64-bit object ppc64
conftest.o:  Mach-O 64-bit object x86_64
:

In the config.log file, this is the relevant bit (I think):

:
configure:24126: checking for C-equivalent to Fortran routine "SUB"
configure:24133: /usr/local/bin/gfortran -c -m64 conftest.f
configure:24136: $? = 0

Now, this really isn't my area of expertise (um, as keen blogwatchers will know ;) but it looks to me as though gfortran isn't working as a 64-bit compiler?

All compilers and supporting externals were built with the 64-bit kernel installed and compiler env variables set '-m64'. As far as I know.

If anyone has any suggestions.. that would be just great!

Cheers
