Compiling SCAM using gcc 3.4.2 on Fedora Core 3

[derek@atmos_colostate_edu]

Greetings,

I have successfully compiled SCAM (version 3.0) in the past on a Linux machine running Redhat 9 with the following compilers and versions:

pgf77 and pgf90 version 5.2
gcc version 3.2.2

I recently upgraded to Fedora Core 3 (gcc version 3.4.2, PGI version 5.2) and am now getting an error when I try to compile SCAM (error text attached to the end of this message). The offending file is ncfile.h in the scam/ui/ directory, lines 657, 671, 685, and 699.

Has anyone compiled SCAM using gcc 3.4.2?

Thanks,

--Derek

Since I last posted, I downloaded and compiled the gcc 3.2.2 compiler (along with g77, g++, and associated libraries). After recompiling netcdf and ncar graphics using gcc 3.2.2 and PGI, scam appears to work normally (including all graphic interfaces).

Bottom line: the problem appears to be an incompatibility between the SCAM c-code and the gcc 3.4.2 compiler. If anyone else notices this problem, or has resolved it using the 3.4.2 version of gcc I would appreciate any further information.
