[MITgcm-devel] netcdf on Sun

[Martin Losch]

Ed,

the optfile sunfile+mpi that is in the repository seems to work unless 
you want netcdf support, in which case you can point it there. But I 
can check in another one for my platform that has the path included (or 
modify the existing one).

But two problems remain on my particular platform:
model>uname -a
SunOS model 5.9 Generic_112233-11 sun4u sparc SUNW,Sun-Fire-15000

1. AWK=awk in genmake2 does not work. I had to change that line in 
genmake2 to
AWK=gawk. That should probably be possible on the command line (similar 
to -make=gmake)
2. After successful compilation with mnc enabled, the link step failed, 
because it couldn't find
routine mnccdir in mnc_readparms.F . I set HAVE_MNCCDIR in 
mnc_readparms.F to undefined and now I have an executable. (I am 
waiting in the queue, probably because I requested 30 CPUs).
