Initial Request
----------------------------------------------------------------
Hi,
I'm attempting to compile MET 9.1.1 and hitting this error:
make[4]: *** No rule to make target `viewgravity_to_string.cc', needed by `libvx_math_a-viewgravity_to_string.o'. Stop.
Is this a known issue? Or perhaps I'm doing something wrong?
[I couldn't find viewgravity_to_string .cc or .h in the codebase.]
Many thanks,
Maff

Hi Maff.
I see you are having trouble compiling METv9.1.1. It's difficult to
tell
what is going on without more context. Could you please attach the
config.log and the make.log file so I can take a closer look?
Thank you!
Julie

Julie and Maff,
I suspect the issue here is the setting of the MET_DEVELOPMENT
environment
variable.
When doing actual development within the repo, this environment
variable
should be set (to something, anything really). When set, it tells MET
to
run the source code generation tools, which create files like
"viewgravity_to_string.cc". When unset, it does NOT compile those.
When you are compiling a released version of MET, the MET_DEVELOPMENT
environment variable should NOT be set. The viewgravity_to_string.cc
source
file was already created and included in the tarfile.
Please try unsetting MET_DEVELOPMENT and then untar the met-9.1.1
release,
re-run configure, and run make install.
Does that produce any better result?
Thanks,
John

Hi Julie and John,
Thanks - the MET_DEVELOPMENT thing did the trick.
I'd cloned the git repo., not downloaded the tar file. Having set
MET_DEVELOPMENT, it has compiled happily now.
Running is a job for tomorrow 😉.
Many thanks,
Maff

Maff,
Great! Thanks for confirming. You know Julie and I have been talking.
It
would be nice to make MET's configure script a little smarter so as
not to
depend on the MET_DEVELOPMENT environment variable at all. That logic
was
just easy to add several years back, but there are likely other
solutions
that wouldn't require setting an environment variable. We just need
the
compile script to know whether its compiling released code or code
from the
repo. Switching back and forth between compiling releases and repo
code, I
get tripped up by this detail as well.
Thanks,
John

FYI, I added an issue to GitHub to potentially remove MET_DEVELOPMENT:
