Some folks asked specifically about the changes I had to make to
get NCAR Graphics up and running under Linux RedHat 7.1 and version
2.96 of the GNU C and Fortran compilers.
Below is the list of the files I had to modify to get around
Linux/gcc/g77 problems or changes. Many thanks to Bart Brashears of
MFG, Inc. for discovering and fixing some of these problems, and
telling me about them:
1. $NCARG/config/LINUX - added the line:
#define XLibrary -lXpm -lX11 -lXext
to make sure "-lXpm" got included during the linking phase of X
applications.
Added the line:
#define CppCommand '/usr/bin/cpp -traditional'
to fix problems with the new version of the "cpp" command that
wasn't handling some *.F files properly. Without this flag,
cpp wasn't conserving white space, which led to Fortran lines
like:
10 print*
(which won't compile), instead of lines like:
10 print*
2. $NCARG/ncarg2d/src/bin/psplit/psplit.c - this file had to be
completely overhauled because of a change in the type of "fpos_t".
"fpos_t" is no longer a scalar in version 2.96 of gcc.
3. $NCARG/ncarg2d/src/libncarg/conpack/yMakefile
$NCARG/ncarg2d/src/libncarg/conterp/yMakefile
Turned off optimization for the compilation of a couple of
Fortran files. If I didn't, some of the "ncargex" examples would
core dump.
4. $NCARG/ncarg2d/src/libncarg/support/bccurv.f - added a missing
comma in a format statmement on line 102.
5. $NCARG/ncarview/src/lib/libctrans/X11_class0.c - added a missing
a termination character on lines 638-639 and 863-864.
That's all!
