OK, basically I am an idiot - we were just looking for the existence of tecio.a and assuming it was good for the platform at hand - something which heretofore was fine. I updated the configure test to actually link against it, so everyone should be good now. -Ben On 8/6/10 12:26 PM, "Derek Gas

I doubt anyone still has a 32bit snow-leopard installation. You have to have one of the original Inel Core Duo macbook pros or iMacs. They were only sold for like 9 months... and you wouldn't still be using them for scientific work for sure! It turns out that Cody Permann actually does have o

OK, I just updated the tecio.a library to be 64-bit and all is well on Snow Leopard. Please let me know if this breaks Leopard for anyone! configure reports ' i386-apple-darwin10.4.0' on my snow leopard box, even with an updated config.guess, when it seems to me 'x86_64-apple-darwin10.4.0' would

This has really always been a problem. We just never compile with binary tecplot format on OSX. ASCII has always worked fine. I didn't know if there was a fix or not so I never brought it up. Derek On Aug 2, 2010, at 4:42 PM, Kirk, Benjamin (JSC-EG311) wrote: > I just ran into this. Turns o

I just ran into this. Turns out snow leopard is 64bit on some platforms which breaks with the older tecio.a. I'm looking do a 64bit replacement library. -Ben On Aug 2, 2010, at 5:03 PM, Roy Stogner wrote: > > A colleague ran into a runtime problem today; I can't replicate it (my > Mac laptop
