[mpas-developers] question about MPAS build

[Michael Duda]

Hi, Todd.

The current rules in the Makefiles for making .o files from .F
files remove the pre-processed .f90 files; for a temporary
workaround, you could comment out the line in the .F.o rules of
the Makefiles that look like:

        $(RM) $*.f90

So the .F.o rule would then look like

.F.o:
        $(RM) $@ $*.mod
        $(CPP) $(CPPFLAGS) $(CPPINCLUDES) $< > $*.f90
        $(FC) $(FFLAGS) -c $*.f90 $(FCINCLUDES)
#        $(RM) $*.f90

in src/framework/Makefile, for example.

I think the original reason for removing the pre-processed .f90
files was just to help me avoid making changes to these files,
then running 'make', only to discover that I'd modified an
intermediate source file. I'm open to the idea of changing this,
though, and keeping the .f90 files around until 'make clean' is
run, for example. What do other developers think?

Cheers,
Michael
