Hm, are you telling us that your compiler is always outputting
something when it compiles?
cat >conftest.f <<EOF
program conftest
end
EOF
/usr/absoft/bin/f77 -o conftest conftest.f 2>/dev/null
/usr/absoft/bin/f77 -o conftest conftest.f >/dev/null
Also, what the heck is doing this:
| configure:1069: /usr/absoft/bin/f77 -E conftest.fpp
| conftest.fpp:2:
| yes
| ^
| Non-numeric character at (^) in label field [info -f g77 M LEX]
| configure:1075: result: no
in the log file? The `[info -f g77 M LEX]' seems to indicate that,
yes, we are running g77!!! Who is Absoft? Are they selling support
for GNU programs? In fact, the test itself reveals something
frightening: the input is:
#ifdef __GNUC__
yes
#endif
and running `/usr/absoft/bin/f77 -E conftest.fpp' on this does produce
the `yes' (as demonstrated by the error above). What I don't
understand is that nevertheless, it tried to compile it! It probably
doesn't understand `-E' the way Autoconf expects.
Could you give us more information on your ``compiler''? Its
--version for instance might say things :) :) :) Or a man page.
Steven, do you know that beast?
Also, is -E an common option for Fortran? Does Fortran naturally
supports CPP? Are there other programs to run to emulate CPP than
`$F77 -E'?
