Hi Jeff:

Are you building it with Fortran enabled. If so, can you tell me what gfortran you are using, and what other settings you have. It fails for me on OSX.

Thanks,

Howdy all!

With the recent release of HDF5 1.8.0-beta1, it is now possible for us
to release netCDF-4.0-beta1, and it is now available from the netCDF
web site:
http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/netcdf/

The netCDF-4.0 beta release requires HDF5 1.8.0-beta1, and
zlib-1.2.3. These can be obtained from the netCDF-4 FTP site:
ftp://ftp.unidata.ucar.edu/pub/netcdf/netcdf-4

Build instructions can be found here:
http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/netcdf/docs_beta/netcdf-install.html#Quick-Instructions-for-Installing-NetCDF-on-Unix

Documentation for this release can be found on the netCDF beta
documentation page:
http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/netcdf/docs_beta/

For more information about this release, see the netCDF-4.0 beta
release notes:
http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/netcdf/release-notes-4.0-beta.html

Recent changes in netCDF-4.0 include the use of the new creation
ordering capabilities of HDF5 1.8.0. Since this feature was added to
HDF5 very recently, the HDF5-1.8.0 beta1 release is now required for
netCDF-4.0; previous versions of HDF5 will no longer work.

Build output from a variety of platforms may be found at the netCDF-4
snapshot build page:
http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/netcdf/builds/snapshot/index_4.html

The version 4.0 release of netCDF includes many new features, with a
correspondingly higher risk of bugs in the code and the
documentation. Please report any problems to
support-netcdf@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Thanks!

Ed



Roy:  gfortran doesn't work for me either on OS X (error below):


libtool: compile: gfortran -I../libsrc4 -I. -g -O2 -c netcdf4.f90 -o netcdf4.o

make[2]: *** [netcdf4.lo] Error 1
make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make: *** [all] Error 2


which looks like a legitimate error to me.

Setting FC=g95, F77=g95 compiles, but make check fails with a linker error (not finding symbols with two underscores).
