Tony,

I just logged onto your system and see that you are _not_ using the new
makefile.  I see that you did add the COMPILERS macro definition that I
noted in a previous email, but I see that you did not add the other
entries that are needed.  For this I blame myself since I forgot to tell
you about this in the earlier email.

The list of changes that are needed are:

o add COMPILERS macro definition (you have already done that)
o add $(COMPILERS) to the definition of COMPARGS and LINKARGS:

  change:

COMPARGS        = $(BFC) $(DEBUG) $(INCARGS)

  to:

COMPARGS        = $(COMPILERS) $(BFC) $(DEBUG) $(INCARGS)
  
  change:

LINKARGS        = $(BFC) $(DEBUG) $(STRIP)

  to:

LINKARGS        = $(COMPILERS) $(BFC) $(DEBUG) $(STRIP)

o append $(COMPILERS) to the end of the rule for the creation of $(TCLCOMP):

  change:

$(TCLCOMP)      : tclcomp.sh
            rm -f $@
            sh tclcomp.sh $(TCLDIR) $(PKGTCL) $(PKGTK) $@

  to:

$(TCLCOMP)      : tclcomp.sh
            rm -f $@
            sh tclcomp.sh $(TCLDIR) $(PKGTCL) $(PKGTK) $@ $(COMPILERS)


Sorry I forgot about these mods to 'makefile' (the new makefile already has
these in it, so your copy can not be the new one).

No.  You need to add your section to the new makefile (you have already
made the addition to the copy I see in ~mcidas/mcidas7.4/src/makefile).

OK, I see this, and it was done correctly.

The failure is due to $(COMPILERS) not being included in the definitions of
COMPARGS and LINKARGS as I note above.

After you make the additions above, things should work.  I would have made
the mods myself, but I forgot the login for 'mcidas'.

>Thanks,

Sorry for the struggle.

We got everything worked out on the Tom side of things. Now we just
have to work things out on the Tim side again. We'll let you know when
it gets working.  Thanks a bunch for sticking it out with us.
