[ncl-install] unable to compile NCAR graphics examples

[Mary Haley]

Hi Doug,

I think if you add -lgfortran to the end of the compile line, it should work:


ncargex cpex08 -n
ncargf77 cpex08.f cpexcc.f -lgfortran
./a.out

If this seems to fix the problem, then you can fix "ncargf77" by editing $NCARG_ROOT/bin/ncargf77 and changing the line:

set libextra = ""


to

set libextra = "-lgfortran"

What switch needs to be "flipped" or what file needs to be added to the library or include directories that will allow me to compile programs calling NCAR graphics routines?
