[Met_help] METv1.0 compile problem

[John Halley Gotway]

Mike,

I apologize if I wasn't clear in the last email.  You're welcome to use the EITHER the PGI compilers OR the GNU Compilers, but I wouldn't recommend mixing them.

Since you'd like to use the PGI compilers, edit the file Makefile_pgi and provide the paths to "pgCC" and "pgf77".
CPP_COMPILER = /your/path/to/pgCC
F77_COMPILER = /your/path/to/pgf77

You'll also need to provide paths for:
MET_BASE, NETCDF_INCS, NETCDF_LIBS, BUFR_INCS, and BUFR_LIBS

And if GSL and F2C are in non-standard locations on your machine, you'll need to provide paths for:
GSL_INCS, GSL_LIBS, F2C_INCS, and F2C_LIBS

Then execute the following commands to rebuild MET:
make clean
make -f Makefile_pgi >& make_met.log

Does that make sense?  Please let me know if you're able to get MET to compile or if more questions come up.

Thanks,
John
