[MITgcm-devel] build on sunos_sun4u_g77

[Martin Losch]

Hi,

my experience with Sun is that it only works with gmake (Sun make is 
notoriously terrible) and as I said yesterday, there are even problems 
with awk (/usr/bin/awk on "my" SunFire 15k), so that awk should be 
replaced by gawk. But awk is hardwired into genmake2 so far 
(AWK=awk/gawk and there are a few occurrances of just awk and now $AWK) 
and needs to be changed in the script if problems occur.

Make sure that
which cc/f77 gives:
/opt/SUNWspro/bin/cc and /opt/SUNWspro/bin/f77
I am currently using:
