how to install netcdf-gfortran libraries?

Hi,

I'm moving from a Linux-Fedora environment to a Mac OS X 10.5.7 (Mac pro). I developped my own Fortran programs on Linux and compile them with ifort. I have installed the latest version of gcc (using fink) that includes a gfortran compiler, which is compatible with ifort as far as I understand.

I am unable to compile a program that calls Netcdf reading functions. In my linux program, I simply have an "include 'netcdf.inc'" statement in my code and I compile with the right options (-L... -lnetcdf -I...).

I did install the netcdf 3.6.2 libraries using fink. The problem is that I do not have the netcdf.inc.

I may have to rebuilt the netcdf libraries with gfortran but I do not know how to do that.

Any help would be greatly appreciate.

installing netcdf

First, make certain that you have installed the netcdf for gfortran. To check do so:

fink list netcdf

and you should see an i by netcdf-gfortran. If not do:

fink install netcdf-gfortran netcdf-gfortran-shlib

Once installed the netcdf.inc file will be in /sw/lib/netcdf-gfortran/include

NETCDF-GFORTRAN FINK

Hello..

Has for some reason, the possibility from Fink, to install the gfortran requirements for netcdf been removed?

because today I get this.....

>fink list netcdf

Information about 2520 packages read in 1 seconds.

netcdf 3.6.2-6 Interface & lib for array-based data access
netcdf-bin 3.6.2-6 Interface & lib for array-based data access
netcdf-shlibs 3.6.2-6 Interface & lib for array-based data access

>fink install netcdf-gfortran netcdf-gfortran-shlib

Failed: no package found for specification 'netcdf-gfortran'!

How should I proceed to get the NETCDF capability for my Gfortran programs?

thank you in advance,

installing netcdf-gfortran

If you go to:

http://pdb.finkproject.org/pdb/package.php/netcdf-gfortran

you can see that it is available for all recent versions of Fink. Have you run:

fink selfupdate recently (and if you don't have it configured to use rsync do fink selfupdate-rsync?
What do you get from:

fink --version

-rm
