[ecco-support] [EXTERNAL] Re: ecco-support Digest, Vol 85, Issue 4

Tue Apr 25 23:31:01 EDT 2023

Hello Justin,

The f90makedepend pull request by Ivana Escobar was closed without being merged to the main branch of MITgcm. The reason was that there is no need to modify f90makedepend if one first removes all carriage returns from the files before passing them to f90makedepend.

As Ivana commented, some warning, but not error, message may still appear:
WARNING: f90mkdepend: for netcdf.h no source file found for this
This is because some multi-line comments in the netCDF header file has the phrase “use this …” and f90makedepend assumes the word “this” is a module name.

If you want to get rid of this warning message, attached please find a modified f90mkdepend that would probably work.

Best,
Ou Wang

Hello Ou,

Thank you for the feedback and for your quick response. I was able to successfully reproduce all steps needed to build and run the verification experiment by following your recommendation of not specifying an opt file and instead, letting genmake2 recursively iterate through parent directories to find the location of the compatible fortran compiler and dependencies. However, I would like to be able to use opt files specific to a local computing cluster at some point as I work on a docker project where I will be tailoring containers to specific host machines and their architecture. I have begun communicating with Ivana Escobar who submitted a pull request to merge an update that supposedly addresses a very similar error message with carriage return parsing in f90mkdepend shown in the attached link. However, I'm unsure as to whether this or a similar update was ever adopted in the main branch of MITgcm? Do I need to revert to a certain checkpoint of MITgcm to make use of this change?

Thanks again,

Hello,

Did you use the following commands?
cd verification/exp2/build
../../../tools/genmake2 -mods ../code -optfile ?/PATH/TO/OPTFILE?
(You can run the genmake2 command without specifying the opt file: ../../../tools/genmake2 -mods ../code)
make depend

If so, please make sure the build directory is empty before issuing the ?genmake2? command.

If  you still get the same error messages, I suggest posting your question to mitgcm-support at mitgcm.org<mailto:mitgcm-support at mitgcm.org><mailto:mitgcm-support at mitgcm.org<mailto:mitgcm-support at mitgcm.org>>. The question is about a MITgcm verification experiment; you may get more answers from the MITgcm support list.

Best,
Ou Wang

Subject: [EXTERNAL] [ecco-support] Makefile unable to generate dependencies for Fortran90 File
Hello all,

I am currently attempting to reproduce the tutorial steps in the readthedocs for building the verification/exp2 experiment, and when I run 'make depend' to create model dependencies I receive error messages suggesting that 'f90mkdepend' could not locate the necessary source file(s) for module 'this'. It looks like it was not able to append the 'f90mkdepend' dependency to the makefile. This is shown in the attachment below. Any recommendations on how to go about debugging this?

Best Regards,

Justin Campbell
