hi,everyone
I used the ROMS version 71 on my Linux system and it works well.But after I got the latest ROMS version through svn update and compile it, the errors appears as below:

Code: Select all

cd Build; ifort -c  -ip -O3 -xW -free mod_netcdf.f90
fortcom: Error: mod_netcdf.f90, line 19: This module file was not generated by any release of this compiler.   [NETCDF]
        USE netcdf
------------^
fortcom: Error: mod_netcdf.f90, line 21: This symbol must be a defined parameter or an argument of an inquiry function that evaluates to a compile-time constant.   [NF90_REAL]

----------------------------------------^
compilation aborted for mod_netcdf.f90 (code 1)

So, what is the error like "This module file was not generated by any release of this compiler". and how I can correct such errors?
thanks for any suggestions.

You need to build the NetCDF library with your ifort compiler. ROMS now uses the f90 netCDF module interface which is less portable between compilers than just the library.

HI, Kate,
thank you very much. I recompiled the netcdf 3.6.2 using my ifort compiler, and it is ok. thanks again.
