[ncl-install] wchar_t problem when compiling NCAR graphics

Tue Dec 9 11:10:26 MST 2008

I'm trying to install NCAR Graphics on my Intel Mac (Core 2 duo) with OS X 10.5.

I'm running into an error in the declaration for wchar_t:

/usr/X11R6/include/X11/Xlib.h:81: error: conflicting types for 'wchar_t'
/usr/include/stdlib.h:93: error: previous declaration of 'wchar_t' was here

and a similar error:

/usr/X11R6/include/X11/Xlib.h:81: error: conflicting types for 'wchar_t'
/usr/lib/gcc/i686-apple-darwin9/4.0.1/include/stddef.h:326: error: previous declaration of 'wchar_t' was here

This error pops up quite frequently, and I'm wondering if anyone knows anything about it.  I'm trying to compile with g95.

Thanks,

Jason Sippel
