Howdy Senastien!

Thanks for the patch, I have applied those changes and now the -Wl,--as-needed
flag works for non-netCDF-4 builds. (Snapshot release will be updated around 3
a.m. tomorrow MST:
ftp://ftp.unidata.ucar.edu/pub/netcdf/snapshot/netcdf-4-daily.tar.gz).

But I cannot get it to work with --enable-netcdf-4. It fails with missing
symbols in the HDF5 library. I am not sure how to get this working. I have read
the document here:
http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/qa/asneeded.xml

It fails like this:

link: g95 -I../fortran -I/shecky/local_post6/include -I../libsrc4 -I../f90 -g
-O2 -Wl,--as-needed -o .libs/ftst_vars6 ftst_vars6.o fortlib.o handle_err.\
o  -L/lib -L/shecky/local_post6/lib ../fortran/.libs/libnetcdff.so
/shecky/n4_new10/libsrc4/.libs/libnetcdf.so
/shecky/local_post6/lib/libhdf5_hl.a /shecky/local_po\
st6/lib/libhdf5.a -lz -lm ../libsrc4/.libs/libnetcdf.so -Wl,-rpath
-Wl,/usr/local/lib
o `H5T_NATIVE_LLONG_g'
/shecky/n4_new10/libsrc4/.libs/libnetcdf.so: undefined reference to
`H5T_NATIVE_SCHAR_g'
/shecky/n4_new10/libsrc4/.libs/libnetcdf.so: undefined reference to
`H5Aopen_name'
/shecky/n4_new10/libsrc4/.libs/libnetcdf.so: undefined reference to
`H5Tget_class'
/shecky/n4_new10/libsrc4/.libs/libnetcdf.so: undefined reference to `H5Gunlink'

Do the hdf5.a and hdf5_hl.a have to come fist because they are static?

If so, what about situations where the HDF5 library is shared?

Thanks!

Ed
