[FLASH-USERS] Fwd: Pb while using gmake on the Sedov example (fwd)

[Beatrice Perret]

Hello flash-users

Here is the exchange I had recently with Klaus Weide following the
question about using gmake on the Sedov example for flash3.1. I
unfortunately hit "reply" instead of "reply-to-all". I am posting this
again in case other people have encountered the same kind of problem.

Beatrice,

Thank you for reporting back your findings.  If I understand you
right, you are now able to use FLASH3.1, by using HDF5 version 1.6.5.

I am forwarding your message to Paul Rich, who has a better understanding
of library versions.  I think such failures to build FLASH with certain
library versions have been reported before.

You may also want to consider reporting your findings back to the
flash-users list.

Again thanks,

Klaus

Klaus

I followed the same step as the ones above (previous email) for
FLASH3.0 and got the same errors. I think this is expected.

I tried the new Makefile.h with Flash2.5, but using the version
hdf5-1.6.5, since this is the only version of hdf5 that works. The
compilation was successful.

Then I changed the version of hdf5 from 1.6.7 to 1.6.5 for Flash3.1
and the compilation was successful.

Here are the options I used to configure each hdf5 version:
hdf5-1.6.5 and hdf5-1.6.7:
./configure --prefix=/...(whatever) --with-szlib=/usr/local/szip-2.1
--disable-shared CPFLAGS=-fpic CPPFLAGS=-fPIC (both needed to use
visit)
hdf5-1.6.8:
./configure --prefix=/..(whatever) --with-szlib=/usr/local/szip-2.1
--disable-shared --enable-cxx CPFLAGS=-fPIC CPPFLAGS=-fPIC
