Hi Luis,

Hmm...  I just built my latest release of McIDAS, v2003b, on a Sun
Solaris SPARC 5.9 system using the gcc/g77 compiler combination and
got a different result than the one you sent.  For instance:

logging from your machine at the point of build failure:

 ...

Note that the error is one of a tcl.h file that is different from
the distribution of Tcl/Tk!?

Here is the same part of the build on my Sun Solaris SPARC system:

 ...

NOTEs:

- I do not get the tch.h version mismatch error that is being reported
  in your build attempt

- the include line for 'generic' differs between your build and mine:

  yours:

  -I/generic

  mine:

  -I/upc/mcidas/mcidas2003/tcl/generic

- my build is explicitly static; yours is not


etc.

I am most concerned about the second bullet in the list above.  In my
build there is an explicit include search in the tcl subdirectory of
the McIDAS disribution, but in yours there is not (i.e.,
-I/upc/mcidas/mcidas2003/tcl/generic versus -I/generic).  I think
that this is where the incorrect version of tcl.h is being searched.

I saw that someone at UPR downloaded Unidata McIDAS on March 12.  Was
this you?  If yes, is this the version you are using in the build?
Did you alter anything in the build in any way?

Did you start with a clean build:

1) remove the mcidas2003/src, mcidas2003/tcl, mcidas2003/tk, etc. directories
2) cd ~mcidas (cd /data1/mcidas ?)
3) define McINST_ROOT to be /data1/mcidas
4) ./mcinstall
5) cd ~mcidas/mcidas2003/src
6) make all VENDOR=-gcc

Again, the VENDOR=-gcc flag tells the build script that gcc and f2c are
to be used in the build.  It is likely that if you have gcc you also
have g77.  If this is true, I recommend using the gcc/g77 compiler
combination:

CC=gcc
CFLAGS=-O
CPPFLAGS='-DNDEBUG -Df2cFortran'
FC=g77
FFLAGS='-O -Wuninitialized -fno-automatic'
CXX=
F90=

Is there any possibility that I could get a logon to your machine as
the user building McIDAS?  With this login, I could poke around to make
sure that there is nothing amiss on things I have not mentioned above
or in my previous email.

Cheers,

Tom

Hi Tom:

 Thank you for taking the time to check my problem.,  Yes, I downloaded
macidas2003 on friday march 12, I'll rebuild the application becuase I
change something on the Make file that referenced to the gcc ompiler (for
strange reason it try to use a sigle letter c program to compile instead
of gcc).  I'll be working on the compilation on the morning.

Luis

Hi Tom:

  I want to thank you for your support in compiling mcidas2003 on our
solaris box.  We really appreciate the time that you dedicated to help
us. Have a nice day.

Luis
