[Wrf-users] WRF3.3 - syntax error in module_fr_sfire_core?

[Zulauf, Michael]

Hi there, WRF Help and WRF Users. . .

I've found what on _my_ system is being interpreted as a syntax error,
but I don't know if it actually is a syntax error, a compiler directive
that our system can't interpret, a configuration error, a compiler bug,
or what. . .

When attempting to build WRF 3.3, I get the following error:
--------------------- snip

make[3]: [module_fr_sfire_core.o] Error 2 (ignored)
--------------------- snip
------------------------------------------------------

When I examine module_fr_sfire_core.f90, I find that line 233 contains
the following:

!DEC$ ATTRIBUTES FORCEINLINE

That looks to me something like a compiler directive (?), but given that
it starts with the exclamation point, I would think it would be ignored
if the compiler didn't understand it.  Checking with
module_fr_sfire_core.F, it looks like that line is directly inherited
from there.

When I remove that line (or replace it with a standard comment line),
then that file compiles fine using the same compilation command.  I
haven't yet tried to see if this allows me to completely build the
executable properly.

As you can see from the command above, I'm using PGI 7.0-2.  We've got
later versions installed on our system, but I'm currently having some
licensing issues that I've got to resolve.

It's a bit interesting, because I've found that similar lines didn't
cause problems elsewhere in the code base.  For example, the file
module_big_step_utilities_em.f90 contains several instances of the
following, and generated no errors:

!DEC$ loop count(3)

Any thoughts?

Thanks,
Mike
