Howdy all! I'm working to convert a popular open source library for Earth scientists (called netcdf) to libtool.
But I'm not having much luck, and my boss is now suggesting that we go back to all static libraries, and take out this libtool stuff. I can't get libtool to work on the Sun: Making check in nf_test make nf_test f95 -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I.. -I../fortran -I../libsrc -g -c -o test_get.o test_get.F f95 -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I.. -I../fortran -I../libsrc -g -c -o test_put.o test_put.F f95 -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I.. -I../fortran -I../libsrc -g -c -o nf_error.o nf_error.F f95 -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I.. -I../fortran -I../libsrc -g -c -o nf_test.o nf_test.F f95 -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I.. -I../fortran -I../libsrc -g -c -o test_read.o test_read.F f95 -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I.. -I../fortran -I../libsrc -g -c -o test_write.o test_write.F f95 -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I.. -I../fortran -I../libsrc -g -c -o util.o util.F source='fortlib.c' object='fortlib.o' libtool=no \ depfile='.deps/fortlib.Po' tmpdepfile='.deps/fortlib.TPo' \ depmode=none /bin/bash ../depcomp \ cc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I.. -I../fortran -I../libsrc -g -c -o fortlib.o fortlib.c /bin/bash ../libtool --mode=link f95 -g -L../libsrc -o nf_test test_get.o test_put.o nf_error.o nf_test.o test_read.o test_write.o util.o fortlib.o -lnetcdf -lm libtool: link: unable to infer tagged configuration libtool: link: specify a tag with `--tag' *** Error code 1 make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `nf_test' Current working directory /home/ed/netcdf-3/netcdf-4.0-alpha4/nf_test *** Error code 1 make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `check-am' Current working directory /home/ed/netcdf-3/netcdf-4.0-alpha4/nf_test *** Error code 1 make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `check-recursive' It is trying to compile f77 code with f95 (which will work just fine), but libtool is complaining because it doesn't have the tag=f77 argument. Is there a way to put this argument in Makefile.am? I am using the latest libtool distribution: 1.5.18, and reasonably recent versions of autoconf and automake. Please tell me I haven't done all this libtool conversion for nothing. If I can't get our package to build on the Sun, I can't use libtool. Can anyone help? Thanks!
