I'm really struggling with the build. I've managed to have it not
work at all on Windows 10 w VS2017 and Intel 2019, 2018, and VS2015
and Intel 2019. Currently trying the VS2015 and Intel 2017 method,
although the compilation seems to have ground to a halt - it seems to
have stopped at about 90%.
So in an effort to get this rolling, I turned to Ubuntu, my Linux is
a lot stronger than my Windows.
The installation instructions mention:
NetCDF: netcdf-c-4.6.1 or above, netcdf-fortran-4.4.5 or above, with
hdf5 enabled
IMPORTANT: Use exactly the same C++ and Fortran
compiler to build NetCDF and Delft3D. Please check in case of using a
precompiled distribution.
But it's not clear to me what you mean by "Use exactly the same
C++ and Fortran compiler to build NetCDF and Delft3D."
I *think* what you are saying is something like:
- netcdf-c-4.6.1 and netcdf-fortran-4.4.5 are basically the same
software, but one is compiled in fortran and one in c
- whichever you pick, then compile the source with one of c or fortran.
But it's not strictly clear that this *is* what you mean. Can I get
clarification please?
The language around "using the same vendor" is made in two
other places, with regard to GNU Fortran compiler - which seems to be
asking us to use an incredibly old version *or* the not most recent
version (plus a list of complex recompilations) and with regard to
Mpich. Again not 100% clear what is meant here either - I have assumed
what it means, but I'm not 100% clear and with the difficulties I've
experienced so far, I thought it was time to reach out and ask.
