[ncl-install] NCL on a cluster with GCC

[Mary Haley]

Hi Tommi,

When you run the NCL "./Configure" program, it should have asked you the following question:

Enter local library search path(s) :

This is where you enter the paths for the various software packages.

For example, if NetCDF is installed to /usr/local/netcdf, and HDF to /usr/local/hdf,
then you would enter:

/usr/local/netcdf/lib /usr/local/hdf/lib

for this question (no commas or quotes). Of course, you need to include any other non-standard
library paths that you need.

Ditto for the include file question, but enter:

/usr/local/netcdf/include /usr/local/hdf/include

Once you are done running "./Configure", you should see a file "config/Site.local"
with a line like:

#define LibSearch -L/usr/local/netcdf/lib -L/usr/local/hdf/lib
#define IncSearch -I/usr/local/netcdf/include -I/usr/local/hdf/include


You can modify this file directly if you want, to modify these two lines.
I generally don't recommend modifying this file, unless you know what
you're doing.

If you make a change to this file, then you need to regenerate all the Makefiles
and start the compile from where it left off:

cd $NCARG
make Makefiles includes depend all install >&! make-output.2
