Sorry I wasn't clearer about this.  You don't make any changes to any
files.  You just make sure the necessary environment variables are set
in your environment before you run the configure script again.  The
INSTALL file doesn't give detailed instructions for how to set
environment variables.

How you set an environment variable on a Unix system depends on which
shell you are using.  You can usually tell which shell you are using by
invoking the command "echo $SHELL".  If you are using ksh, sh, or bash,
just use the "export" statement to set environment variables, for example:

  $ export CC=/bin/c89
  $ export CPPFLAGS=-D_HPUX_SOURCE
  $ export CFLAGS=
  $ export FC=/opt/fortran/bin/fort77
  $ export FFLAGS=-w
  $ export CXX=/usr/bin/CC

If you are using a shell such as "csh" or "tcsh" to interact with the
system, environment variables are set with the "setenv" command instead,
for example:

  % setenv CC /bin/c89
  % setenv CPPFLAGS -D_HPUX_SOURCE
  % setenv CFLAGS ""
  % setenv FC /opt/fortran/bin/fort77
  % setenv FFLAGS -w
  % setenv CXX /usr/bin/CC

In either case, after setting the environment variables you want, you
should start over with building netcdf, such as the following:

  $ make distclean    # don't worry if this produces an error message
  $ rm config.cache   # necessary if you have run the configure script here 
before
  $ ./configure       # run the script

I told you in the last message that the environment variable "CFLAGS"
should be set to the value "-D_HPUX_SOURCE", and above and in the
INSTALL file, it says use this value for the environment variable
"CPPFLAGS" instead.  It doesn't matter much and should work either way,
but if you set CPPFLAGS as above, then you can choose different CFLAGS
values, such as "" (default), "-g" (debugging), or "-O" optimized.

I hope this helps.  If not, feel free to report any problems to
address@hidden and we'll see if we can fix the problem.
